Every Student a Studio Star

Help me give my students additional tripods, microphones, and other tools for video production.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Johnson's classroom raised $962

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are learning various media classes including video production, photography, and broadcasting. These students love to demonstrate their creativity in the local high school film festival but often cannot afford the equipment. During this pandemic, students have had more restricted access to materials in the classroom, so this project is to increase classroom materials for availability.

My Project

These materials will assist students at home by increasing the number of materials that are available to them. This also alleviates some of the classroom problems we have currently including large groups, shared audio equipment, and stabilizers.

Having a variety of tripods and microphones provides students ample time to learn about and become familiar with professional workflows.

With these tools, these students will go from making simple home videos to submitting their videos to the high school film festival. Help my students to be able to produce more and gain the experience to help them get a job in the Video Production industry.
