Our Green Schools Documentary Program

 

Our Green Schools coaches high school students to create exciting environmental documentaries. This program is unique since EcoSpark partners with the student filmakers for a year or half a year in order to make top quality films.

Over the course of a year or half a year the students attend a series of workshops where they learn how to use film to explore environmental issues. Participants then work on their own films with the coaching of EcoSpark's resident film-maker. At the end of the year their films are screened in a public event and released on DVD in order to increase public awareness about the studied issues.
