At Up in the Air Films, we are passionate about creating engaging and informative school videos that highlight the unique qualities of educational institutions. School videos are an effective way for schools to communicate with students, parents, and the community, showcasing their programs, culture, and achievements.

• Showcasing Programs: School videos provide an opportunity to highlight the various programs and extracurricular activities offered by the institution.
• Building Community: These videos help build a sense of community by sharing stories and achievements of students, teachers, and staff.
• Promoting Enrollment: School videos can attract prospective students and parents by showcasing the school’s environment, facilities, and educational approach.
• Enhancing Communication: They serve as a tool for effective communication between the school and its stakeholders, including parents, students, and the broader community.
•  

• Increased Engagement: Videos are more engaging than traditional text-based communication, making it easier to capture and retain the audience’s attention.
• Enhanced Visibility: A well-crafted school video can enhance the visibility of the school, making it more attractive to prospective students and parents.
• Stronger Community Bonds: By sharing stories and achievements, school videos help strengthen the bonds within the school community.
• Effective Communication: Videos provide a clear and consistent way to communicate important information to students, parents, and staff.

• Admissions Videos: Showcase the school’s programs, facilities, and culture to attract prospective students and parents.
• Who We Are Videos: Provide an overview of the school’s mission, values, and unique features, helping to build a strong identity.
• Testimonial Videos: Feature interviews and stories of students, parents, and teachers to highlight their positive experiences and achievements.
• Fundraising Videos: Engage the community and potential donors by showcasing the school’s needs, goals, and the impact of their contributions.
• Event Coverage: Capture and share highlights from school events, such as sports days, concerts, and graduation ceremonies.
• Informational Videos: Provide important information about school policies, procedures, and upcoming events.

At Up in the Air Films, our project pricing is determined by several key factors:

• Preproduction Time: This includes all the planning and preparation required for your project, such as scripting, outlines, scheduling, and storyboarding. The complexity of these elements can significantly impact the overall cost.
• Production Time: The amount of time and the level of production needed are crucial factors. For instance, do we only need half a day with one filmmaker, or do we require a full day with a team of 2-3 members? The scope of the shoot and the resources required will influence the pricing.
• Post-Production: The number and complexity of deliverables are also considered. For example, a 1-minute video with only b-roll shots set to music is very different from a 2-minute video that includes several student interviews, a message from your head of school, and possibly a parent testimonial or two, all woven into a compelling storyline. Additionally, whether we are working with a scripted project or creating a story from multiple interviews can affect the pricing.
• Delivery Time: Does your project fit into our standard delivery time of 4-6 weeks, or do you need it faster? We offer expedited delivery options that can also affect the overall price.

The cost of producing a school video with Up in the Air Films can vary based on several factors, including the complexity of the project, the length of the video, and the level of expertise required. Here’s a general idea of what to expect:

• Admissions/Who We Are Videos: These videos can start around $2,400 and extend up to $10,000, depending on the project’s scope and production requirements.
• Event Coverage Videos: Event-style videos typically start around $1,200, making them a cost-effective option for capturing important school events.

We also offer pre-built packages for our schools, providing ready-to-roll options that fit within any budget. These packages are designed to meet the diverse needs of educational institutions, ensuring that you get the best value for your investment.

To create an effective school video, consider the following tips:

• Define Your Message: Clearly outline the message you want to convey and ensure it aligns with your school’s values and goals.
• Know Your Audience: Understand who your target audience is and tailor the video content to resonate with them.
• Keep It Concise: Aim for a concise and focused video that delivers the message without overwhelming the viewer.
• Use High-Quality Production: Invest in good production quality to ensure the video is visually appealing and professional.
• Include a Call-to-Action: Encourage viewers to take the next step, whether it’s visiting the school’s website, attending an open house, or enrolling.

In conclusion, school videos are an essential component of modern educational communication strategies, offering a dynamic way to connect with students, parents, and the community. At Up in the Air Films, we leverage the power of video to enhance your school’s visibility, engage your community, and promote your programs.
