How the Career Development Centre will help you grow

The University of Derby’s careers staff team needed a short, attention grabbing way to communicate all their services to students around University. This is now used for student inductions and in presentations. The video is also displayed around the campus and on the University of Derby website.

The main challenge of this video was giving an overview of all the Career Development Centre’s services whilst keeping the video short and engaging. It focuses on highlighting how the services are beneficial and worthwhile to students. The video uses a garden as a fun metaphor for growth and development.

Animation, script and direction by Mair Perkins. Voice over by Travis Peters.

Testimonial

I have been extremely impressed with the quality of Mair’s work – she is super-talented in everything from animation to illustrations and has a real ‘can-do’ attitude about tasks asked of her. The results are there for all to be seen; her work is of a quite staggering quality, and she’s really nice as well!
