Recently J. Sibley Law, a pioneer of short short-format video through his media company, Saxon Mills, recently worked with a number of high school students from HYPE (How Youth Positively Entertain), a youth development program of the Stratford, CT, Community Services Department. Among other prevention and wellness activities, HYPE provides teens with a forum to create underage drinking prevention programming for their peers.
Over the summer, this collaboration produced, "What's in Your Cup?", a web television production designed to help educate young people about some of the consequences of underage drinking.
Five episodes were produced, and each was connected to the others by a common tagline: "It's easy to make mistakes when we're young. Don't make them worse by drinking."
