Make short-form video easier to start
Choose a topic, scan examples, check best practices, then use simple filming and gear guidance to make campus-ready content.
Start here
Turn a campus moment into a short-form video.
Use this page when you have an event, menu item, student moment, chef story, or campus update that would work better as video than as a static post. Start with an idea, check the best-practice guardrails, then grab the tools needed to film or edit.

Approvals and help
Need a second set of eyes?
Ask before the shoot, not after the edit.
If a video involves permissions, a sensitive topic, a media tie-in, or a larger campaign, route the question early so the team can help shape the approach.
