Fresh Focus Video Contest

In September 2007, ISIS launched the Fresh Focus Video Contest. Teens used digital video technology to describe what their Sex Ed experience was like or how they would redesign Sex Ed for the future. Every few weeks we’ll post a new submission, showing you what your peers have to say!

About:
I learned about sex on the playground, but my questions were never fully answered. You see, my family was strict and my sex ed teachers felt awkward at best. I didnt really learn about sex until I started having it and by that time...it was a little too late. These days I am a happy and healthy young woman, but the side effects of an inadequate sex education could have been easily avoided.

About:
I've developed a means of educating youth about sex that revolves around entertainment and not just spitting out facts. If you can't hold the viewers attention long enough to correctly inform them of the facts, then you've failed as an informative resource.

About:
Sex is often portrayed as a monster - something to be feared. Sex ed classes should focus on ways to prevent getting STDs, not just scaring students away from having sex. So what if some of my classmates didn't get scared and decided to do it? They would have no idea what to do!

About:
The majority of students learn the dangers and consequences of sex but are unprepared when they feel they are ready to engage in sexual activity. An open and honest discussion on sex is the best solution to this problem. For this video, I wanted to contrast the facts on sex ed with with two lovers who are about to engage in safe sex.

About:
I was lucky. I had a great sex ed teacher. What made her great was her honesty. She was willing to address anything! But even with a wonderful sex ed teacher there were still many personal questions left unanswered. Why? Because students were too embarrassed to ask them. That’s why I think that sex ed of the future needs to include a website where teens can get their personal questions answered by trusted authorities.
