Student Video Collaborations

The following six short films illustrate various Scholarship, Research, and Creative Activity projects undertaken by VIU students. The films were done by DIGI281 students as part of their Spring 2020 classwork. They did a beautiful job capturing their fellow students' work. Well done all!

Check out some amazing student work from the past year!
