What Middletown read : an honors thesis (HONRS 499)

In order to create a promotional tool for the project of What Middletown Read at Ball State University, we have joined our talents to bring together a video to illustrate the importance of the project, and to explain to those outside the project what important work is being done. To achieve this, we interviewed members of the researching team and historians to demonstrate the background aspects of the project and the significance it will hold for historians and all potential researchers. Ultimately, we hope that this project will offer a positive and informative view of the project to interested subjects should the team choose to share it in digital form. The video will also be housed as a part of the local history collection in the Ball State Archives and Special Collections for public viewing. Alyssa has used her talents honed at Ball State for filming and editing, as Rachel contributed her visual marketing skills to create the existing look of the video for distribution in addition scheduling and communication.
