RICHMOND HIGH SPEAKS UP! is a monthly 30- minute television program that brings Richmond High issues to
the community.
 Richmond
High School students - under the direction of
experienced media professionals - research, write,
direct, shoot, edit and produce all aspects of the
program to share their perspectives on issues of
importance to them.
The program provides a critically important
communications hub where both Richmond High students and
staff open an interactive dialog with the community on
key school issues. It also provides a training ground
where students learn to create relevant community
television around issues of their greatest concerns.
The program is produced b the non-profit Richmond Youth
Media Project. Started as an extension of Richmond High
School’s Multimedia Academy, the project is open to all
young people from Richmond and West Contra Costa County.
There are
three goals in using the art of video production as an
educational tool.
-
For the
youth of Richmond and West Contra Costa County to
learn to create outstanding video and other digital
media programs about themselves and their
communities.
-
To
strengthen the ability of our underserved and often
unheard young people to express their hopes, needs
and concerns through video and digital media.
-
To help
students learn the business skills necessary to
prosper in professional work environments
irrespective of the line-of-work they ultimately
choose.
