Supporting videos
About supporting videos
These are documentary, non-academic instructional and informational videos for all UVic activities that don't necessarily capture one of the three key messages.
Examples
Thank you to UVic donors, 2016
Over the past year, donors have helped countless students pursue their academic dreams. This video captures members of the UVic community trying to put into words how much that means to them.

How to use
Style
With such a variety of contributing sources we know strict adherence to a rigid set of guidelines is not feasible. Supporting videos should follow basic rules of good videography.
Process
You can shoot supporting video yourself, but we recommend attending the Do-It-Yourself Video Production workshop to learn more about best practices, coming in the spring of 2016.
Use
Supporting videos are used by units to provide information on a variety of topics, such as documenting an event and giving a tutorial.
