UCLA College Explainer Video
The UCLA College of Letters and Science comprises 85% of UCLA's undergraduates, yet a surprising number of students aren't aware they, their major, or their department is housed under the College! In an effort to clarify how the College serves the undergraduate body, and to increase public awareness, enhance the College's reputation, and encourage engagement and support, this explainer video was created.
A fun, friendly, and colorful style was developed to be eye-catching and to enjoyable to watch. The audience demographics were vast, from prospective students to the on-campus community to donors and alumni, so a balance between lively but professional was important.
The video was later split into six different mini-videos to be promoted as a series on social media; an intro video for the College as a whole, followed by a video for each division. A unique intro was created for each of the division videos:
