For Northwestern College — Learning In Community

Northwestern College, a private liberal arts college in Iowa founded in 1882 and affiliated with the Reformed Church, asked Upland to create a set of three videos in support of a $48 million capital campaign:

  1. "Our Heritage, Our Calling" — to rekindle the connection between alumni and the college while establishing that it is entering a new stage of growth
  2. "Learning in Community" — about Northwestern's distinctive approach to education →
  3. "The Learning Commons" — to make a compelling case for the college's planned library and campus center

For these three videos, I conducted eight on-camera interviews with members of the college community and filmed daily life around campus, and edited the footage, also incorporating virtual fly-through imagery from the college's architectural firm.
