Abstract

Upon entering Brigham Young University three years ago, I immediately fell in love with the campus. It was so beautiful and well maintained. Many buildings also caught my eye and I greatly desired to learn more about them. Luckily, I became informed of the opportunity to be involved in a project within the Harold B. Lee Library that would highlight the history of BYU’s architecture in a future L. Tom Perry Special Collections exhibit. My involvement with the project consisted of producing and shooting various short documentaries which would combine historical photographs with current video footage in order to give a viewer further insight as to the buildings and their related history. The Brigham Young Academy and Karl G. Maeser buildings were the buildings of my focus. It is my hope that these short documentaries will not only emphasize these buildings’ beauty, but will also give a viewer greater insight as to early history of Brigham Young University.
