Project Overview:
“Name a Woman” was a high-energy, street-interview-style video inspired by Billy on the Street, created to celebrate Women’s History Month in March. I co-produced, MC’d, and edited the video, which featured spontaneous interviews with CHBS students as they were asked to name a woman—professor, doctor, peer, or mentor—who’s part of the College of Health and Behavioral Studies community.

Objectives and Strategy:
Our goal was to spotlight and celebrate the incredible women within CHBS in a fun, fast-paced format that would resonate with students. By using a recognizable pop culture reference and an unscripted style, we created a lively and shareable video that both honored Women’s History Month and stayed true to the JMU and CHBS brand voice.

Outcome:
The video was well-received for its humor, spontaneity, and heartfelt shoutouts, generating strong engagement from students and faculty alike. It brought attention to the amazing women of CHBS while keeping the content light, relevant, and community-focused.
