Hello, students! On this page you’ll find six videos about how wildfires start. We recommend you view them all before choosing one that you can “interpret.” We suggest then choosing any except the first or last ones.
What “interpret” means is that we want you to take the information in one of the videos and come up with a video that you think would be interesting to others your age. You might use narrated art, or a screencast with slides, or footage of you and classmates performing the message in some way. It’s up to you.
Work with your teacher to decide which one(s) you will do. The best videos could be seen by tens of thousands of people around and beyond California – we hope you’ll make something amazing!
Keep the project files, and be prepared for feedback on how to improve the videos. We want to help your videos be as strong as they can be. Once finished, check with your teacher on how to submit them as part of the Next Vista Wildfire project.
