I was tasked with developing a new introductory brochure for the Richmond Montessori School through a 24-hour team-based project known as CreateAthon. The project is designed to get students with experience in communications and public relations to help nonprofits better connect with customers and clients.
The video was created to be put on RMS’s website. The goal of the piece is to show visitors what it would be like for a child to attend the school. We included integral parts of the RMS campus in the video such as the giant globe in the middle of the school, the wishing woods in the back of campus, the school’s buildings, and the interior of the classrooms. All of these images convey the special qualities RMS has that make it unique to the Montessori principles. We chose to focus on children in this video to showcase their joy and their activities. An emotional appeal is an effective way to inspire an audience. Our intention is that this video helps parents see that the Richmond Montessori School is a great opportunity for their child.
