Video Communications Video Of The Week

The video communications class at Reading High teaches the students about the art of video production and challenges students to communicate their creative ideas through the medium of video. The student video productions are about educational and school events, local and global issues, Public Service Announcements, and short films. The projects are seen on the Knight News, the morning announcements, as well as Knight Life, an hour long interview program seen on Comcast channel 22 on Monday nights during the school year. Each week we are going to highlight some of the work done by the video communication students.

This weeks video communications video of the week comes to us from Diana Cedeno and Nathalie Denis. They asked some of class of 2012 their final thoughts on the school year and their upcoming graduation. We hope you enjoy their video.


You can check out more videos from the Video Communications Class on their Youtube Channel at RedKnightTV.
