The Quality Child Care Infomercial was developed for the Child Care and Early Childhood Development Division of the Virginia Department of Social Services. This video was designed to be sent from case managers to thier clients as an introductory video explaining the benefits of selecting a high quality child care provider. After watching the video, the viewer is directed to the Virginia Child Care website to continue thier education and to be provided with the tools necessary to identify quality child care.
This video was created to be presented during select conferences and board meetings as an emotion inducer to inspire the viewers to take action against child violence and the fatalities that tend to result.
Before viewing this, I feel that I should warn you that the imagery and video used may be quite emotional.
The Child Welfare Stipend Program is a program which was reintroduced in 2016 to assist current students in field of social work. The program provides a stipend for bachelor's and master's students to complete their education with the agreement to work at a local department of social services after graduation. This video was created for placement on the participant university websites to both promote and inform new students about the program. Interviews were conducted with multiple previous recipients of the stipend and b-roll was filmed at Virginia Commonwealth University. The graphical elements were designed using Adobe Photoshop and all editing was performed in Adobe Premier Pro.
These short clips were developed to showcase the concepts and inspirations of the individuals who recieved the Innovator in Learning Grant Awards. A team was selected to develop these in the most efficient manner. Myself and another, Alison Kim, produced the videos and led their creation. We relied on the skills of another one of our graduate students, Tamar Petersen, to edit and post the videos. The end result can be seen in the videos below:
The video below was a random spur of the moment idea that developed as we were experimenting with room setups. To give you a brief overview, one of the classrooms we used for educational opportunities was remodeled using furniture from Herman Miller. Dubbed "Room 20" it serves as an experimental classroom with rearrangeble furniture and a myriad of technology. Using the departmental graduate assistants, we shot this video to engage potential users of the room and give them a brief snippet of the arrangements that they could do.
