This course offers students a robust opportunity to explore and use the rare archives of the National Geographic Society (NGS) to create new material intended for a wide and diverse audience. Students learn the art of compelling storytelling and scriptwriting, combined with visual and sound techniques to successfully bring history to the screen. Students produce exemplary 5- to 7-minute videos using historic footage, images, maps, and documents of early exploration, environmental research, science discovery, and expeditions around the globe.听

This course provides an experiential learning experience with different branches of the National Park Service (NPS). Students add to their portfolios by working with NPS staff to create designated short video projects on subjects including science history, wildlife, ecosystems, new discoveries, and more. Students combine skillsets that include research, producing, directing, camera and lighting, audio capture and sound design, editing, motion graphics, and writing narration. All production expenses are covered; students receive a stipend upon completion of the project. NPS may choose to make the videos available to the public on their website and in visitor centers.
