Project Ideas for Your Video
1. "Literacy Through Technology" Workshops
 What You Can Do:

o Collect old smartphones, tablets, or laptops from friends and families who no
longer use them.
o Install free educational apps or offline resources for learning (e.g., math,
science, or literacy apps).
o Host workshops to teach kids or teens in your community how to use these
devices to learn.
 Why It Works: Technology can make education more engaging, and it’s a practical
way to repurpose devices.
2. "Recycled Learning Kits"

o Collect gently used books, notebooks, pens, and school supplies from your
neighbourhood.
o Repackage these into “learning kits” for students in need.
o Organize a community event to distribute these kits and raise awareness
about recycling and education.
 Why It Works: This project is low-cost, promotes sustainability, and directly supports
students in need.
3. "Skills for Tomorrow" Club

o Start a club where you teach practical, hands-on skills like:
 Making eco-friendly products (e.g., paper bags or simple crafts from
recycled materials).
 Basics of coding or digital skills using free online tutorials.
o Showcase how these skills can help teens create opportunities in the future.
 Why It Works: This empowers teens with sustainable skills while fostering teamwork
and creativity.
4. "Green Schools Initiative"

o Plant trees or create a small garden at your school to promote sustainability.
o Start a waste segregation system at school (bins for plastic, paper, organic
waste).
o Educate younger students about the importance of protecting the
environment.
 Why It Works: This is a visible, long-lasting project that teaches responsibility and
care for the environment.
5. "Peer Tutoring Program"

o Volunteer as tutors to help younger students with their studies in subjects
like math, English, or science.
o Set up weekly sessions at your school or community centre.
o Pair this with small workshops on sustainability topics, like recycling or saving
energy.
 Why It Works: It uses your current skills to make an immediate impact on others’
education.

or a clean school garden.
 Add Energy and Creativity: Use vibrant visuals, upbeat music, and captions to make
your video engaging.
Creating a video for your project involves a step-by-step process that focuses on planning,
shooting, editing, and finalizing. Here's a simple guide:
Step 1: Plan Your Video
1. Define Your Story:

o What problem are you addressing?
o What solution are you showcasing?
o What’s the key message you want viewers to remember?
2. Create a Script:
o Write a short script to guide the video. Break it into:
 Opening: Introduce the issue in Eket.
 Middle: Show your team’s solution and actions.
 End: Highlight the impact and call to action.
3. Storyboard (Optional):
o Sketch or list scenes you want to include. For example:
 Scene 1: Your team brainstorming.
 Scene 2: Collecting materials or running a workshop.
 Scene 3: Smiling students benefiting from the project.
Step 2: Shoot Your Video
1. Gather Equipment:
o Use a smartphone or a basic camera (most phones work great!).
o Ensure good lighting and stable shots (use a tripod or place the camera on a
steady surface).
2. Capture Key Scenes:
o Record short clips of your team working on the project.
o Include interviews or testimonials from students, teachers, or community
members.
o Film action shots, such as handing out materials or planting trees.
3. Ensure Good Quality:

o Speak loudly and clearly when recording sound.
Step 3: Edit Your Video
1. Choose an Editing App/Software:

o For smartphones: Use InShot, CapCut, or Kinemaster.

Editor.
2. Organize Clips:
o Place your video clips in order (introduction, middle, end).
o Trim unnecessary parts to keep it under 3 minutes.
3. Add Elements:
o Text: Add captions or titles to explain what’s happening.
o Music: Use free, upbeat background music (check YouTube Audio Library).
o Transitions: Use smooth transitions between clips to make it look polished.
4. Include a Final Message:
o End with a title card showing:
 Team name.
 Project title.
 A message like: “Together, we can create a sustainable future!”
Step 4: Finalize and Share
1. Review Your Video:

o Watch it as a team. Ensure it tells your story clearly and fits within the
competition rules.
o Check audio and visuals for quality.
2. Export in the Right Format:
