In a collaborative effort with the Media Resources Center, the Office of Admissions recently produced customized videos for every admitted senior and transfer student. While intentionally shooting video of a few spots on campus -- a dorm room in Shocker Hall, the fireside lounge in the RSC and Koch Arena -- motion capture technology was used to impose names of students into traditional campus hangout spots to celebrate their admission to the university. Personalization is the key to students feeling welcomed and appreciated, and this piece is intended to create a sense of community for our prospective students. The videos are being emailed by Admissions on a revolving basis to all admitted students and ultimately more than 4,400 videos will be sent. As of now, more than 1,200 views of videos have occurred with additionally dozens of shares via social media, text message and email. Go to http://bit.ly/wsuadmitsample to view a sample video.
