JOPLIN, MO.--- A new online video series will showcases the Joplin community. Planning is underway for a 10 segment web series that will feature themed videos designed to educate the public about Joplin.

Filming will take place at several locations to portray the city's business, retail, historic, and residential communities. This project was started several years ago by city leaders, and is updated once every 3 years.

"Joplin has changed a lot in the past 3 years as we know it, so we are going to be highlighting some of the changes and some of the new building projects that are going to be going on," said Lynn Onstot, Joplin Public Information Officer.

These videos come at no cost to the city or to taxpayers, an independent communications firm will produce the videos with help from local businesses. The company will begin reaching out to potential sponsors this week, the first video is expected to be completed by this summer.
