Richland Farms - Student Work
The Student Producers from Richland Farms' Youth Voices consisted of 10 high school students from Environmental Charter High School. Students first researched thematic elements of the project like localism, environmentalism, sustainability, watershed, as well as the history of Compton. Then they worked in groups to acquire various multimedia production skills in photography, cinematography, sound recording and design, video editing, and interactive design. Through several activities, they were able to then create and post their work.
