TY WEEKLY
Zenia Corson in the new YSI video
TT

On Friday 8th January St. Gerards Zenia Corson from Transition Year took
part in a promotional video shoot for Ulster Bank and YSI. Zenia was a
representative from the YSI group that deals with the topic of The Syrian
Refugee Crises. The YSI association made contact with Ms. Kavanagh to
organise a representative to take part in the video due to the excellent and
constant updates from the YSI group.
The idea of this video shoot was to launch the new partnership of Ulster
Bank with the YSI. Zenia participated in the video shoot along with five
other past and present students of other schools to complete the video. In
the video the presenter (Diana Bunici) is shown all the young people being
asked questions about their YSI projects. The projects were very varied
from The Syrian Refugee Crises, Women Equality, Cyberbullying, Mental
Health and Drug abuse. After a full day of filming in the Smock Abbey
Theatre in Dublin City Centre, the video footage was edited in time for the
video and partnership launch on Wednesday, 20th January.
The video launch took place in the CHQ on Customs House Quay in Dublin
City Centre. There were 150 guests that attended the event including An
Taoiseach Enda Kenny, Baroness Thornton and many more! There were a
number of press photographers there including from the Irish Times and
Independent newspapers. The reaction of the video was amazing and
everyone was very pleased. The video can now be seen on the YSI website,
the Ulster Bank home page and on their social media sites.
