A Little Deserved Recognition

Last fall my roommate, Aaron, had an internship creating videos for prospective students who were interested in Dordt College. These videos were about 1 minute long and gave students an idea of how their education would deepen in their particular field of study if they attended Dordt.

Central to Aaron's success were of course, the college students that particiapted in his videos. Whether Aaron recruited me because I'm really, really, really, ridiculously good-looking, or because I was his roommate and always around, I'll never know (I believe it is the first reason rather than the second).

Aaron worked very hard to produce nine videos for the website and during the Christmas break his videos were finally loaded onto the Dordt College Website. Aaron chose thumbnails from each video. It just so happens that the HPER video's thumbnail is, in fact, me. I suggest you watch the videos because he did a great job.

Also, if you receive the Dordt College Voice I strongly urge you to read Aaron's article on page 2 explaining the process he went through as well as his future ambitions about video production.

I was actually going for the shock factor. Researchers say it's a very effective attention-getting tool in mass media. So I thought to myself, what's more shocking than Jim Brinks in a HPER video? The rest is history...
