Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Our school is taking a bold step into the world of esports and sports media, and we need your help to bring our vision to life. With the DJI Mic 2, we aim to capture the energy of live games, interview players and coaches, and produce post-game interviews with players & coaches

By incorporating wireless microphones into our production setup, students will gain the tools needed to create polished media projects that capture the excitement of competitive gaming and sports while developing highly relevant skills in live broadcasting, interviewing, and content creation.

Audio is a critical element in any media production, and this microphone is the perfect tool for our students to master professional sound recording techniques.

Your contribution will enable us to equip our students with the resources they need to build meaningful, real-world skills in media production and storytelling. This project will not only elevate the visibility of our esports and athletic programs but also empower students to take ownership of how these stories are shared with the community.
