PC Students Win National Video Competition

Porterville College is celebrating a major win after our Advanced Digital Video Production students took home first place in the college category of the NASA HUNCH/CTE Month 2024–25 Student Video Challenge. This was a national competition that pitted our students against others from colleges across the country.

The winning video was created by students Jaquelin Ayala, Daniel Ramirez, Marcos Ramos Sierra, and Roberto Tapia. Their video explored how Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs support current and future NASA missions, specifically focusing on the Artemis initiative to return humans to the Moon and travel beyond. The students did a fantastic job of showcasing how careers in CTE contribute to space exploration and STEM fields, both on Earth and in space.

For their incredible work, the students have been awarded a $25 Amazon gift card each, and Porterville College will receive a $200 award on their behalf. This achievement is a testament to the students’ vision, dedication, and professionalism.

This exciting win highlights the exceptional talent within our Fine Art program and the incredible opportunities available to our students. Congratulations again to Jaquelin, Daniel, Marcos, and Roberto on this outstanding accomplishment!
