Much of our work is in-house work—that is, we produce materials for the school administration, teachers and student organisations like the Students’ Union or school houses. This work normally isn’t released publicly.
1. Photo and Video Taking
This is a something new we have started working on this year. During school events, we sometimes take informal photos and videos using a variety of cameras (e.g., we often use digital toy cameras like the Digital Harinezumi 2 to record the video) and post the photos on Youtube and/or Facebook. What we do is try to capture the people behind the events (there is a team of teachers and technical support staff assigned to keep an official record of events). Here is some of our work (click on the link to view the video or photo album):

2. School Promotions
This summer, we will be working on producing promotional videos for the school’s 40th anniversary. Earlier this year, we produced the GIS Room Video (shown below):
This video was produced for the opening of our Geographical Information System room and oral discussion room (it was produced by Stephen, with additional footage shot by Hydra). Tommy and Allan also produced a video for the school as part of its campus cleaning campaign.
3. Student Organisations: Promotional Materials

Studio team members often assist student student organisations produce promotional videos and posters. Usually, members from the organisations do the video shooting and editing, while we assist by doing things like converting file formats, teaching new users how use the editing software, handling any technical problems that arise and taking care of things like special effects and music. We have assisted organisations like the Students’ Union (our most frequent client), school houses, Putonghua Club, English Award Scheme and Drama Club. You can view the promotional video for the interhouse competition (Jan. 2010) below:
This promotional video was a joint effort with the editing being done by studio team members (Allan and Tommy) and a house captain (Joyce) and the music recording and video exporting being handled by the studio coordinator (Stephen).
