Document environmental topics related to our marine habitats using digital photography, video recordings and underwater images to create your own public service announcement that will move your audience to appreciate and protect our coastal environment. Debut your PSA as well as your other photographic work at the Friday premiere.

Field excursions include:

  • Trips to a variety of marine habitats, Center for Marine Science, Sea Turtle Hospital, and bird sanctuary.

Highlights include:

  • Explore different marine habitats and observe human impacts on them; go kayaking, snorkeling and wading; take a boat to a barrier Island and experience a natural undeveloped barrier island, learn how to create a storyboard, develop your editing skills and make a public service announcement.
