TrojanTV

In middle school I restarted my school’s student news outlet called Trojan TV. It happened in the 6th grade, one day the teacher was talking about how in the past the school had a student news outlet that would play across the school. I asked the teacher why it had ended and she said that no one wanted to run it. So immediately I volunteered to be the first one to bring it back. I gathered a group of students interested in starring in it and started directing and editing episodes during lunch and after school. Once the pandemic came I just moved it to zoom and continued recording and making videos there with the group of students I recruited. Over the pandemic we moved less away from news and onto making our own shows with elaborate plotlines. Since I left middle school it is to my knowledge that Trojan TV has continued and is still very active.
