BYU Students Create Videos to Tell New Zealanders' Stories

A group of media, communication, journalism and film students from Brigham Young University (BYU), Utah, United States, are in New Zealand talking to people they meet, and sharing their stories.

Two of the students—Jason Murray and Ryan Turner—produced a short video titled, "Esplanade—Beyond Barrels: The Surfer's Story." It is about Davide, a surfer they met in Dunedin.

Watch other videos and read articles by the BYU students at the website, "Fight for the Few."

BYU is owned and operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It has approximately 30,000 students.
