This post is from James, a UMass Lowell Strategic Management student, and his "The Usual Suspects" team. James sent me a link to the latest version of their video. Here's his email to me. My response follows.
James writes:
"This is James from Dr. Moser's Strategic Management Class at 1 P.M.. I am looking forward to having you visit our class again tomorrow. I am not sure how much time we will have to show you our video so far, so here is the link. We have attempted to have at least two people in each scene, however due to the weather recently we have not been able to redo certain parts. There is still work that we need to do in perfecting the video, including adding the HTML links in the video, however we are currently working on eradicating the imperfections. See you tomorrow."
My response:
"I'm sending this along to Dr. Gibson because we talked about just this aspect of promoting the school during our meeting today; a 'video' tour of what incoming students can expect. This comes very close. Those interviews are excellent and close to what I suggested to Dr. Gibson.
"I also laughed my head off when the camera-person interrupted the narrator in the very first sequence with "This isn't a dating video"!
"EXCELLENT!
"You folks are going to be teaching me things, I'm sure.
"See you all tomorrow"
