Scholarship Recipient Video Introduction - Instructions

​Talking Points for Video Introduction

1. What is your name?
2. What is your home city?
3. Where did you complete your undergraduate education?
4. What was your undergraduate major?
5. What professional program are you currently attending or entering next year?
6. What are your professional goals?

Helpful video recording tips

1. Good light - If you don't have good artificial light, use the sun.  Record after sunrise or right before sunset.  Make sure the light is on your face, not on your back.
2. Use a digital camera, your smartphone, or the webcam on your computer to film. Shoot in high definition or 1080p to ensure the video quality is good. If using a phone make sure it is placed horizontally to record full width.
3. Clear away tabletop and background clutter. The focus of the video should be you, not the things around you. Also, make sure you’re in a quiet place (e.g., no children at play, electric fans, etc.) because your mic will pick up the sounds and make your video hard to watch.
4. Light, camera, action: Have fun! Before you start recording, make sure you are looking presentable. We recommend that you dress neatly in work-appropriate attire.
