Fun times at Ferris State.
Ferris State University Campus Life video is the second video produced by DW Video & Multimedia, LLC. What better way to open the campus life video than from the President of Ferris State University, Dr. David L. Eisler.
I remember going over all the interviews trying to decide the exact segments to use for all the videos. This is a very important part of my job as a storyteller. Finding the right segments to tell the story. Here is the first segment from the Librarian at Ferris – “Whenever you become passionate about whatever it is… you can make a huge impact here on campus'”
We interviewed a Pharmacy student and hearing his advice about coming to Ferris as a freshman… great advise. Another student offered input about joining a student organization to make new friends and gain experience. Making it real and telling Ferris’s story is the approach DW Video took when producing these videos.
“The second I came onto campus I knew I was at home.” You know when you visit a campus and you get that feeling this is going to be home for the next four years. I got the feeling right away” All great advice from other students.
Enjoy the Ferris State University Campus Life video. Contact Ferris State University Admissions to book your tour.

President David L. Eisler welcomes you to Ferris.
‘Welcome’ is the theme for our videos for the Ferris State University Admissions Department video.
Welcome to Ferris is the opening line of the video and is carried on throughout this and the other two videos. As the producer my main goal was to make it real. Not scripted. As we were gathering interviews a common theme began to emerge – the branding statement of Ferris.
One of the challenges was so many great interviews. What makes it into the video and what does not. “Coming to Ferris is one of the best decisions I have ever made” is the opening testimonial. “Once you get to Ferris you will fall in love with the buildings, the professors and students.” I was amazed at the response from one simple question – “What do you like best about Ferris and why?”
“We offer students a real hands on experience. We bring real life learning in our program.” come from interviews with professors.
A key element that came up over and over from those we interviewed. Friendly professors that are approachable and that care about their students.
A small comfortable campus is also one of the statements that kept coming up over and over again.
Welcome to Ferris became a labor of pride. Promoting not only the university, but the people, the community. Enjoy the Video!

Producing three videos for Ferris State University Admissions Department.
Back in May, Ferris State University Admissions Department called on DW Video to produce three videos. The videos, Welcome to Ferris, Campus Life and Bulldog Parent Testimonial are going to be used for campus tours. Ferris and other Colleges and Universities all over Michigan are giving tours to potential students and parents deciding on where to send their son or daughter.
Working closing with the Ferris State University Admissions Department we set off to create the three videos. After numerous days of on-location video, hours of making phone calls, working with Jason and Shelli setting up locations, interviews and events and days of editing – producing the three videos was completed.
Our first meeting was with a group of nine Ferris State University Admissions Department members. Knowing that each of them had their own idea of what the videos should look like. Asking them to provide links to videos similar of what they liked provided us a plan. Without a plan, no project would ever be completed… makes sense doesn’t it.
Working with members of the Creative team, Dan Salas, Frank Krywicki and Ben Slater we began capturing what would end up being nearly a half of terabyte of raw footage.
Here is a look at the making for the Ferris State University Admissions Department videos.

DW Video used a three axis stabilizer with a GoPro to produce a video at Solon Center Wesleyan Church Cedar Springs MI. Earlier this week we shot a quick video at Solon Center Wesleyan Church to promote their new obstacle course.
Using the obstacle course as part of their outreach ministry Duane decided to go with a fast paced, action filled video to highlight the course and promote Solon Center.

Using the G3 Ultra Handheld 3-Axis GoPro Stabilizer for some fabulous video.
DW Video produced the Solon Center video with The “Magic Wand” with the Hero 3 camera by GoPro using the Feiyu G3 Ultra Handheld 3-Axis GoPro Stabilizer. Our first project that we used the stabilizer for was Ferris State University. It was awesome to say the least.
