Like many who live in Northern Kentucky, James Kyle Hill had no idea of the history of his region.
That changed when the Fort Mitchell resident decided to enter a scholarship competition sponsored by the History Channel.
For his project, he decided to find out how cities like Fort Mitchell, Fort Thomas and Fort Wright got their names.
The 10-minute documentary he made with his findings aired Monday night on Insight public access cable Channel 15 and will air again at 8:30 p.m. Wednesday. It's also on a continuous loop at the James A. Ramage Civil War Museum in Fort Wright, where Hill spent three months researching his film.
The 18-year-old had little interest in making movies until he took a video production course at Beechwood High School, where he's a senior. Now, he's passionate about the process.
