Topics Which Make Great Student Films

By Megan Landry


There are a variety of student films that are made each year by people who attend schools across the world. Many of these pictures may deal with what is going on around college campuses or they may focus on a certain controversial issue. Sometimes the very negative events going on will more than likely capture the public's attention since people love gossip. Some of these topics may be about abortion, gay marriage, having guns on campus, race relationships, politics, or date rapes.

Everyone who lives in America knows that abortion is always a very big issue which will ignite heated debates. Women who live on a college campus may want to discuss this with someone who is making a documentary about the subject. This is one way that they can express their feelings to a wide audience without having to face any type of negative backlash. A show about abortion will always get the attention of the staff that is working at any school.

One young movie maker decided to do a documentary about the ups and downs of gay marriage. He found a gay male couple on campus and followed them around for several days. This movie showed how they lived a normal life together which was similar to a male/female situation. Many people were very negative about the show after it was completed but the scholar still received several awards for his work.

After the Columbine High School incident had taken place one very creative scholar made a movie about gun control. In an effort to make his picture more realistic he also interviewed members of the NRA (National Rifle Association). During the filming he spoke to many people who were for and against carrying privately owned weapons. His documentary also included footage of family members who had lost loved ones during this tragedy.

Race relationships are always a big issue even in the year 2013. Some people cannot get past the color of a person's skin which is very ridiculous. Undergrads have made an effort to show the world how race often affects people's attitudes about a certain person or situation.

The whole world knows that politics will always make people argue for hours. There are two party systems within the United States who never seem to agree about anything. They are called Republicans and Democrats and these individuals will make the average person quiver with fear.

This is a very good topic for any young movie maker to focus on since it will always enrage people. The intelligent pupil will try to be a fair as possible to both sides while making this particular production. He/she will show the good and bad side of both political parties.

A person who makes great student films will always want to investigate the evil part about campus life. This will include the numerous date rapes that go on. While investigating this issue the film maker will question and record security officers and school personnel for details. More than likely these young artists will gain employment from a reputable employer once they finish school.
