JOIN THE PARTY
Client: Career Services, Texas State University

We produced a series of videos to help the Texas State Career Services Department with four challenges.
Students had trouble finding their office
Students who have never visited Career Services perceived the office as “boring” and “stuffy”.

With strategically displaying this videos on campus signage, as well as playing at freshman orientations, we were able to successfully solve their challenges.
