About Us
We began taping college and university commencements in 1989. Over the past 20 years, our goal
has been to produce programs that reflect the energy and vitality that surrounds these
once-in-a-lifetime events. Every school is different—our programs capture the flavor of each
place, including the unique moments that are special to each graduation.
Our mutiple camera persons focus as much as possible on students, providing candid shots
throughout the day or weekend's events. The majority of these video professionals have been
shooting commencements with Collegiate Video for many years, so shooting exactly what's needed
comes naturally to them. Each school coordinates with us to provide excellent camera positions,
so that our lenses see things that sometimes escape the audience, especially those seated
at a distance. In addition to capturing superior images, our crews record crystal
clear audio with direct line feeds and wireles microphones.
During post-production, we edit carefully, making long speeches shorter and more interesting
while keeping the length of student presentations intact as much as possible. The actual DVD creation
process is performed with you the viewer in mind. Easily navigable chapter markers, optimal compression rates,
and professional duplication make our DVD programs true keepsakes--worthy of every graduates collection.
Order one of our DVDs, and still bring your camera to commencement.
But don't worry about whether or not you also brought tape. We’ll get it all for you.
