New production notes
Monday, December 10, 2007




Throughout video, where there are black bars on the side, get rid of these.

Need title slide. Background of slide should be TCNJ blue (RGB = 41 – 63 – 111) with white text over top. Text should read: Stay Connected

                                                                                                                                                                                                  Support Our Future

First archival photo of Ed (about 8 seconds into the video) needs to go by quicker. Start the image up a little higher, and speed up the zoom so the photo is only on screen for 3 seconds. Add the extra second to the slide that comes right after this picture

The zooming out on Ed’s retirement photo that happens at about 30 seconds into the video is too fast. Slow this down (but that slide should NOT be on screen for any longer than it currently is)


Caption for Prat Vyas should read:
Prat Vyas
Class of 2007


Footage of New York City should be shown while Prat is talking about working in NYC (Prat will be doing a voiceover). So you’ll have to delete the footage of Prat talking about working NYC, and use just the audio while showing the NYC street scenes.


About 3/5 of the way through, while John is talking about endowments, there is a series of five slides show. Change them in this way:
* make the library interior photo the first shot
* then show the African American girl
* then show this photo:
http://www.tcnj.edu/~webtest2/givingvideo/newcampus/IMG_1440.jpg
* then show the science professor working with the two students, but fix this so that you actually see the professor’s face
* then show the outside show of students sitting outside the library
* NOTE: the football shot will come out of this spot, but be used at the end.

During montage at end, shorten the aerial shots to 3 seconds each, cut one second from the group photo of the African American alums, and insert the football shot (3 seconds for this shot).

Fix the sound of John’s voice over so it’s not so tinny

The end should fade to a blue screen with the VERTICAL college logo (which can be downloaded from here:
http://www.tcnj.edu/~ccr/sg/downloadable_logos_print.html )

Under the logo, have this URL in white type:

www.tcnj.edu/give


Sound:

John needs to sound more like the rest
Ed is too low
Prat is too loud







New Production Notes - 12/6/07

:00 - :04 -- Show Ed talking

:04 - :08  -- archival picture of freshman registration

:08 - :12 -- archival picture of Ed by himself

:12 - :16 -- archival picture of bus stop, zooming out from the sign that reads "New Jersey State Teachers College"

:16 - :21 -- archival classroom photo

:21 - :37 -- this will be cut, but don't cut it until the end because that will mess up the timeline notes to follow.

:37 - :41 -- pick up where Ed says "I graduated .... "  -- use an archival commencement photo (from here: http://www.tcnj.edu/~webtest2/givingvideo/campus50s/004_4.JPG )

:50 - :56 -- Ed retirement photo -- pull photo from page 1 of the newsletter at this website: www.njefa.com/pdf/NJEFA%20NEWS%204.07%20final.pdf

I'm thinking that you can make a graphic from page 1 of the PDF file, and start in close on the photo of Ed, pulling back to show the headline and the newsletter's masthead. Call me if this is confusing.

1:16 - 1:30 -- okay as is

1:31 - 1:39 -- this footage will move to right after Prat says "Class of 2007" in his introduction. So you'll cut from John directly to Prat's intro

4:34 - 4:44 -- this gets cut out and replaced with the new audio file that I sent to  Alfonso on 12/6. It's a WAV file that needs to be cleaned up a bit.

Use that audio as a voiceover, and use the following photos as B-roll during it:

pic 1: http://www.tcnj.edu/~webtest2/givingvideo/endphotos/great%20things%20are%20happening%20alternate.jpg
