In this episode of Hollywood IQ, we sit with Amy Woods, Media Arts Teacher at Northview High School in Covina, California. In this episode, Amy breaks down the pre-apprenticeship program through the Handy Foundation and how it benefits students careers after high school. With a background in unscripted and docu-dramas, Amy discusses how her students are gaining real-world production experience and stepping directly into industry pathways. She explains how she used PBS Student Reporting to teach her students the basics of non-fiction editing and storytelling. Ri-Karlo and Amy discuss the resources teachers can tap into, and why bridging the gap between education and industry keeps both teachers and students relevant.
