Share your remote teaching experiences for video project

 

Hello colleagues,

I hope this finds you healthy and safe! I am reaching out to see if the campus community can assist with a video project we are putting together to thank our hard working students, faculty and staff who are making the transition to online teaching and learning.

I’m hoping to collect video footage of your activities from home as you continue to connect and teach. This would be you, or a person you are at home with, using your phones and/or screen captures to send us action shots of remote instruction, or smiles, virtual high fives, etc.

We know this is a difficult time for faculty, staff and students, and we want to assure our college community we can do this together! The final video will feature a voice over message from President Roger Ramsammy while we show footage of you and your students or teams, tackling the challenge of online or remote learning and making it work!

I am including a link (see below) to a OneDrive folder where you can upload the footage directly to me at home, so I can start to craft the final piece. This link will also have examples of what footage we are trying to get so it’s a good resource when planning things out. If and when possible, please send horizontal/landscape footage at an HD resolution, (1920×1080) and in .mp4 or .mov file format. For most phones and screen grabs this is pretty standard.

I am also including a link to a model release form to send your students who participate. We need to make sure they virtually download and sign this as we need permission to use their likeness in the piece! Here is how it works:

  1. Download the form (save it to their device) from https://www.hvcc.edu/graphics/modelreleaseform.pdf
  2. Fill it in
  3. Save it again
  4. Send it to you as an attachment

I would like to have all footage gathered by “close of business” on Friday, April 10 if possible. This will allow me time to put the elements together and get our message out by the beginning of next week!

Here is the folder link:

If you have any questions, concerns or suggestions on how to make this even better, you can email me at j.yost@hvcc.edu.

Thank you again for all the hard work and helping us get the word out about how awesome our HVCC community is!
