Our plan is to follow our radio script, and develop it into an infomercial or solution commercial.
The following is our script:
Announcer: Are you suffering from long lectures, boring classes and professors that don’t know your name?You must be suffering from Unscholarly Violent Mental Syndrome, or UVM Syndrome, a cruel and inhumane condition. Listen to what this UVM inflicted student has to say:
UVM Student: It sucks.
Announcer: That’s right! It sucks! Your solution? Come to Champlain College! Champlain offers a chance to study abroad, a wide variety of courses and zero exposure to UVM syndrome. Just listen to what this Champlain student has to say:
Champlain Student: It’s awesome! Before and after every class we witness the beautiful view over Lake Champlain. The campus is small and personal, just like all our classes, and there are so many different activities! Go red team dodgeball! GO BEAVERS!!
UVM Student: How can I feel real again?
Announcer: Come to Champlain. It’s Champlain, or suffer from UVM syndrome for the rest of your life. It’s a no brainer.
Some specific production techniques may include employing special effects such as black and white. Some types of camera shots we will use, depending on the situation include panning shots or medium shots for the announcer and medium close up shots of the two students.
We will require some props, such as Champlain or UVM printed sweaters, depending on whether the film will take the form of a pure infomercial or if we will add some variation to it.

Samuel Curry - Director, Pre-production scouting
