When organizations have digital storytelling needs, 小猪视频 students have them covered. Redeemer鈥檚 Innovation Centre is celebrating the launch of its first student-run venture, The Studio, that provides video creation and editing services to businesses, ministries and churches. The Studio empowers student creatives and gives them opportunities to use their skills and God-given talents to provide quality services at prices well below industry standards.
The Studio offers a suite of video production services, such as recording, editing, graphics and animation, drone photography, copy writing and music sourcing. Clients are able to choose from a variety of video types, such as inspirational company videos, testimonials, product tours, real estate videography and special event recording. Video production services are available at half of industry and market rates, which, locally, start at $1000 per finished minute. The Studio offers packages that begin at two to five finished minutes, though custom projects will have their own unique pricing models. Completion timelines vary by project scope and student schedules, though the average project can typically be completed within four to six weeks.
As a fully equipped company, The Studio supplies students with professional cameras, lenses, lighting equipment and editing software. The Studio has started with a roster of six student videographers/editors, as well as one business/project manager. The Studio content creators are gifted videographers and editors, and the majority are honing their craft through their studies in the media production program. Under The Studio, students operate as independent contractors, working directly with clients to create and complete video projects. Supervision and oversight is given by the director of the Innovation Centre, Harold DeVries.
I can’t wait to see all the creative ways students will use their gifts and talents for the benefit of others in the community.
