Project: Report -Round Three Assignment

DEADLINE EXTENDED TO DECEMBER 16th.

In partnership with the Pulitzer Center, YouTube presents Project: Report, a journalism contest (made possible by Sony VAIO & Intel) intended for non-professional, aspiring journalists to tell stories not covered by traditional media outlets that might not otherwise be told.

ROUND THREE ASSIGNMENT:
The assignment for round three is unique. Produce a piece that empowers an underrepresented community to tell its own story to the world. First, choose a group of people that are rarely covered by the traditional media. Then let them use the camera to document their own lives, and to tell their own story. It's up to each individual reporter to collect the footage captured by the members of this group, and to weave that material into your own reporting to create a compelling and unique story.

The video must be 5 minutes or less, and all entries must be in English or have English subtitles

I hate fred, he isnt creative...his voice over thing is extremely annoying, and I dont think he is funny at all.

I went the profiles of the comments that said this video "sucked" and most of those who said that are just adolescents.

If you notice, coverage of less fortunate people is never a bad thing.

Two stars for a video aiding them is ridiculous.
