Project Ideas

1. The Reflections Body Image program is a sorority-facilitated body image seminar for college aged girls to talk amongst each other about healthy lifestyle habits and self esteem. My sorority is certified to facilitate the course and will be running it this spring with our new members in 4 sessions total. In addition to facilitating the course this spring, girls in my sorority want to look into training the other sororities on campus in giving the course to spread the healthy body image throughout the Panhellenic community. This would include a combination of interviews, stills, and narrative. I could interview the girls who are trained to facilitate the program, the girls participating, as well the other women we are trying to get involved with the program.

2. A Mockumentary-style project about UNH Greek life and the misconceptions for both sorority and fraternity life. This would mirror the style of Chris Lilley's Summer Heights High/ NBC's The Office, with fictional characters who give narrative/ camera interviews mocking the desired image/persona. This could focus primarily on stereotypes in Greek Life, and try to expose the fine line between myth and truth.

3. Alternative Spring Break at UNH and how it positively affects the students who participate in these service trips as well as the communities they travel to. I could interview students who had previously gone on ABC trips in the past, who are planning to go, and students who facilitate the trips for UNH. There could be interviews, audio, and still pictures of projects that UNH students have built or accomplished on ABC trips in the past
