\"\"<\/a>From VCSU:\u00a0 Valley City, ND (KCSi-T.V. News Apr 25, 2013) — 21 Valley City State University students in Jonna Ziniel\u2019s public relations course have applied their Public Relation skills to a real-world application\u2014creating promotional videos for the Sheyenne Valley National Scenic Byway and Valley City Convention and Visitors Bureau.<\/p>\n

The 21 students have created 18 videos, each 2\u20135 minutes long, highlighting locations in and around Valley City.<\/p>\n

Using university video and still cameras and working in groups of five and six, the VCSU students crafted the videos from footage and still photos they shot, along with interviews of relevant individuals.<\/p>\n

Ziniel says, “It\u2019s good to see different backgrounds.<\/p>\n

Ziniel, is in her fifth year of teaching at VCSU, and adds, “That variety produces different perspectives, and that\u2019s valuable in the classroom and in these video projects.”<\/p>\n

Mary Lee Nielson, marketing coordinator for both the Sheyenne River Valley Scenic Byway and the Valley City Convention and Visitors Bureau, is appreciative of the work the VCSU students have done saying “We\u2019re fortunate to have Valley City State University to use as a resource. We now have 18 videos that can be used to help market Valley City and the Sheyenne River Valley. It\u2019s great to see how VCSU students view the community around them.”<\/p>\n

Nielsen approached Ziniel about the possibility of creating some short tourism videos, and Ziniel was quick to realize the opportunity it presented for her students. Nielsen will also offer the videos for use by the Valley City Chamber of Commerce and the Valley City Development Group.<\/p>\n

The video assignment was well received by Ziniel\u2019s students. “It was a way for us to give back to Valley City,” said Preston Jensen, a VCSU senior and one of the PR students.<\/p>\n
