Advice for Truancy PSA needed

[Amortisatie]

Well in my multimedia class (which sucks major balls by the way), where we are just using a program to make movies, our next assignment is a public service announcement, you know, about public problems and stuff, like smoking, drugs, etc. Well i have decided to do mine on Truancy, but I want to flip it around to make it an attack on school, I don't care what grade I get, and I already have some ideas, and in the credits I will put www.school-survival.net in giant bold letters.

Any ideas would be great, I already have my ideas but I want this to have a little something from everyone from SS.

Some general points I think would be helpful to put in:

Anti-school, not anti-education
Youth motherfucking rights-if you can be charged as an adult, you can be treated as one
Respect the students
Point out why Zero Tolerance is a failed theory

I might put up some more if I think of them, but good luck all the same.

Just do a big tutorial on how not to get caught and end with voiceover "Truancy: if you're going to do it, do it right."

He said he was going to make it anti-school instead of about truancy.

Put in a whole bunch of psychological studies about stress relief, and compare truancy to an adult taking days off work. Except, of course, students don't get payed.

I would have it show or say in some way that school creates conformity, and then compare truancy to enlightenment. Without the mindless drone's words filling one's head, one can become quite creative and productive.

I would start it out with flim of a classroom - everyone looking bored, possibly dressed the same - and facing forward, listening to a lecture. This would be filmed in black and white. Then, a kid would stand up, and walk out of the classroom. As soon as he/she hit the streets, color would come in, and the student would start becoming enlightened by the real world around him.

I don't know how possible it is to do a movie or something like that, but, certainly compare school to dullness and the real world to intelligence, and then play the truancy thread in there - by ditching school, you're ditching boredom and idiocy.
