Costa Rica – CEDES Don Bosco prepares students for the Don Bosco Global Youth Film Festival (DBGYFF 2024)
San José, Costa Rica – June 2024 - As part of the Don Bosco Global Youth Film Festival promotional activities, the Don Bosco Salesian Education Centre - CEDES Don Bosco has organised a series of training sessions so that students are encouraged to participate and have the necessary tools to make their videos. The training was offered by Julio Zúñiga, assistant of the Club House and graphic designer with extensive experience in multimedia production. Zúñiga provided audiovisual resources and taught techniques to create shots, manage light effects and focus on different planes, underlining the importance of maintaining the thematic context in the execution of the videos. Topics of retouching and editing photos and videos and film techniques were also discussed. In addition, there was the support of Michelle Marchena, environmental manager of CEDES Don Bosco, who spoke to the young people about actions to combat climate change. Their goal was to raise students' awareness of the festival's theme: “I have a dream! Young people and climate change ". The activity, organised by the Department of Social Communication, was very motivating for young people. In 2021, CEDES Don Bosco won an award at DBGYFF with student Nazareth Cascante, who also sent a motivational video to students to encourage them to participate.
