The Kindness Club and Video Production program at CTEC joined forces to spread kindness across campus, as part of the 2022 global Kindness Challenge.
Students created sixty-second public service announcements (PSAs) encouraging others to participate in kind acts, while the Kindness Club spread happiness through a “post-it exchange”, where positive messages were shared with others.
The students came together for a viewing party and competition, where the top three PSAs in the AM and PM classes were honored and awarded prizes (click on photos to enlarge).
“This is a wonderful opportunity for students to showcase their writing, shooting, and editing skills, while producing a video they can share with their peers, promoting all types of kindness. They really enjoyed the assignment.” - Lisa Krch, Video Production Instructor, CTEC
Paulene Dela Cruz wrote a song for her PSA, and won 1st place in the AM class, for her creative efforts.
“I just approached this like a normal assignment, but I was very pleased with the way it came out. When I heard that I won, I was very happy and proud and look forward to sharing the video with my friends and family.” - Paulene Dela Cruz, AM Video Production Student
