Recording Graduations, creative tips, and advice. Can someone direct me to some where I can find real creative graduation footage tips and advice. I have a proposal to make to a school and I do not want it to look like a traditional recording for a graduation

    Have you tried searching around YouTube or Vimeo?  You may find samples that will inspire.

    visit the school newspaper people and school student organizations and clubs etc ( including sports, drama, music, chess club, science labs, computer IT, all the departments in school.... )

     

    Get samples of news articles ( you can scan headlines and stories and use in your film ) and photos and information about graduates ....

     

    pick out a few that show promise of telling " story" about how the school and community of students ( neighborhood , students as a whole group ) helped one another over the years to get to the graduation...and have fun with it...have some funny stuff as well as some serious "promises" the future holds for students...

     

    highlight those few stories among the general "story" of how great it is to get to that point of graduation and moving on...

     

    shoot the ceremonies and so on, and then add your "story" elements in post with some music ( maybe local music from graduates in bands )
