SamaElFekyRISE’s Path to Save the WasteThis documentary reveals the history and objective of Research Institute for a Sustainable Environment (RISE) in the American University in Cairo (AUC). Founded in 2013, RISE positively impacts not only AUC and Egypt but also the Middle East and North Africa as a whole. The institution provides awareness to the entire Arab region and opportunity for AUC students to get involved in understanding and enhancing the environment.

SamaElFekyProfileI chose Offah.com as my profile because its road to success seemed the most interesting to me. The enterprise had a rough start; it launched back in 2011 when Egyptians were incredibly engrossed in the political state of the country.
Because the audio had to only be 90 seconds, I included a soundbite that pretty much outlines Offah's birth as well as objective.

SamaElFekyConceptThe concept audio provides an insight into the organic world by including the experiences of three suppliers. The three suppliers are Adel Al Shentenawy from Egyptian Hydrofarms, Mohamed Soliman from Health Harvest and Louay Al Kut from Offah.com.
I placed the soundbites in a way that they would be relevant to each other. Each soundbite is meant to complete the discussion of the one before.

SamaElFekyVoxpopI asked 11 students to share their perspective of organic food in Egypt and most of them gave me weak responses. Apparently, Egypt neglected the food and the environment so much that even the educated community is not aware of something as basic as organic.
Hence the decision to make the audio funny rather than informative. The voxpop includes a clear message though, which is that Egyptians should realize there is a replacement for unhealthy food out there.

SamaElFekyHome of Serenity :: The AUC LibraryScript:
Situated in the center of the AUC campus, the library is one of the few spots that constantly gathers all kinds of students together. The eyes can’t help but get immediately attracted to Its delicate glass structure and its modern mixture of European and oriental design. Known as one of the biggest libraries in Africa, the AUC library is indeed packed with endless book collections, including recent and rare. Once you get past the security by wiping your ID through the sensitive detector, an overwhelming noise from the crowded plaza hits your ears. While the library is mainly a...
