Our organization wants to perform video interviews on current topics that create contemplative responses. The material will be converted to animation talking heads that will need to be edited and visual imagery added to emphasize the talking points. We would like to collaborate with students to help us tell a compelling story through this video. Based on our desired outcomes and the selected topics, we would like to collaborate with students to script and record a voice over for the animation. Students would not need to perform animation element, this would be performed in post.
