Students produce videos for Fargo Human Relations Commission

Students taking a course in the Cinema Arts/Digital Technology Department are producing four videos for the Fargo Human Relations Commission. Three groups from Film 472, Advanced Video, are creating short non-fiction pieces covering three local individuals who will receive awards from the HRC Jan. 16, Martin Luther King Jr. Day. A fourth group will make a video on Dr. King’s impact in Fargo-Moorhead today. Students met with a member of Fargo’s HRC recently to present the four proposals. All were approved by the Commission. “This work represents a true collaboration between the university and the community,” said the course’s instructor, Ray Rea. The films will be screened at the Martin Luther King. Jr. Celebration at the Fargo Theatre on January 16th, 2012.
