FINAL PROJECT:
The Remembering Benzie Oral History Project tasks each student with creating a Final Project. The Final Project highlights the skills learned throughout the year. The edited piece, approximately 15 minutes long, will include excerpts from interviews, photos, B roll, and in some cases, a narrative from the student. The student interns can be creative, making this Final Project a true reflection of their work and their own personal experience with the Remembering Benzie Project.

YEAR 2 FINAL PROJECTS: Student interns were tasked with creating a "short film". This short film was to be an edited piece, using any aspect of the project that they wished to include. They were free to be creative so it could be a true reflection of their work and their own personal experience.

YEAR 1 FINAL PROJECTS: Student interns were tasked with creating a "short film". This short film was to be an edited piece, using any aspect of the project that they wished to include. They were free to be creative so it could be a true reflection of their work and their own personal experience.
