Project Details
Over the Spring 2024 semester, we worked with local non-profit Friends of the Rappahannock to help promote their core message of restoration, education, and advocacy. Following our conversations with staff at the organization, we sought to produce infographics, picture posts, and videos aimed at educating those in and out of the Rappahannock community about the river and how they can help to restore it.
This page features the two main projects we delivered to Friends of the Rappahannock: a social media campaign featuring six original designs created in Adobe Photoshop, and two video projects featuring original interviews with FotR staff and B-roll shot on location in and around the river.
