The final product of “A Celebration of Cancer Survivor’s Month at The James”.
OMIC Internship Video
In this main campus project, the client wanted to reiterate the importance of undergraduate internships, as well as the importance of getting OSU faculty involved.
It’s a Flash Mob!
Kicking off cancer survivors month, we performed a 6 camera indoor/outdoor broadcast directly to the patient rooms. The patients enjoyed a musical performance, flash mob, and were encouraged to look down from their windows to get some encouragement. Our team handled the indoor production. We worked with Ohio HD on the outdoor stuff. Overall, a pretty fun day!
TAVR Promotional Video
For this year’s Structural Heart Disease conference over at the Ohio Union, our client wanted a short video promoting the TAVR surgery. We interviewed 2 patients who had the operation, as well as 2 physicians who refer patients to the Ross for it.
FEATURE: Telling Your Story
By Jason Fischer | AV Support Analyst
Storytelling is the art of delivering a message in narrative form. Doing this well is a skill and takes practice. Throughout the ages, stories have been used within all cultures to facilitate education, deliver humor, and preserve historical perspective. Key elements of a narrative include the setting, the characters, the plot, and the narrative point of view. In this post the term storytelling is being used to describe the technique of communicating your message in video format.First, we will discuss the initial preparations necessary to lay the foundation for your script. Start by considering your target audience and the take away message. Then decide on the main themes that drive home that take away message. Next, consider how these themes overlap and interact, then use these relations to develop transitions between the main themes. Once you have the themes and transitions, draft the story outline.
The story outline is the sequence of events listed in the order that they will appear in the video. At this point, think about the interplay of video, graphics, and B-Roll to complete the story outline. Basically, imagine the footage, interview dialog, and images necessary to tell your story.
Gastrointestinal Oncology Physician Videos
Here are some behind the scenes on our latest studio setup in Graves 1185. We interviewed 3 physicians as they briefly hit the key messages of particular types of gastrointestinal cancers. Since these videos are aimed for patients and consumers, we decided to use a comforting white backdrop.
Patient Experience Shoot
In this project, patients will grasp an idea of what to expect when they come in for their surgery. We shot about 4 hours of “b-roll” footage and will be adding a voice over to tie it all together. It will follow a patient from the time they arrive at the hospital, through the steps before and after surgery, and leaving the hospital. We ended up using real OSUMC employees to act as the patients in this story.
Patient Rounding Shoot
In this project, we have attempted to document the real life implementation of a patient rounding checklist for inpatient care . The video will be used to document pitfalls and strategies used in the checklists’ implementation on Medical Services and their patients. We shot this project in a documentary style, following the hospital teams for two days with one camera and an audio operator. During this specific shoot, we shot an interview with a real nurse, as he introduced each of these cases.
We’re going into Surgery!
For this project, our client needed a real patient consultation and a full surgery to show at an upcoming conference. We ended up using 2 cameras to record this. Our normal camera on a tripod, as well as a GoPro overhead of the bed. Sorry, we can’t show you the good stuff, so you’re stuck with this picture of Eric and John!
“Calum Scott”
This Heather Pick Music Program performance featured Calum Scott. He was a finalist on 2015’s “Britain’s Got Talent”. Not only was this his first time in Columbus, but this was his first time in America. He was extremely humbled to be here performing to all the patients watching in their rooms.
