Project: Harvard Innovation Lab
Kick off video

Client: Harvard University

Harvard called us to create a program to kick off the opening of the i-Lab featuring the Harvard Deans. The program was such a success, we created two more shows: one with students and one for the community. Each of these uses the same production technique, Count Basie style jazz, animation design, and high-impact editing.

For this project we recorded short sound bites with all of the Harvard Deans involved with the innovation lab. A great scheduling challenge. We recorded them all with a shallow depth of field on a white background and then took out further saturation with color correction.

The program is a good example of how you can create high-impact with snappy music and aggressive editing—our specialty. The show was a great success. at the ribbon cutting Harvard President Drew Faust said “My Deans are stars.”
