Videography

The university videographer’s primary responsibility is to provide video services at the discretion of the Office of University Relations for use in student-recruitment; news; general university, college and departmental marketing; and various Online and digital platforms, including our website and social media. Our priority is to produce creative, storytelling video that inspire audiences to engage with UT Martin. This includes stories about our institution as a whole, faculty, staff, students and alumni.

The video production process varies for each project. All video requests are subject to a review process (see request evaluation considerations below). And, while we appreciate your timely request, please note that we do not operate on a "first-come, first-served" basis. We prioritize video projects that are in line with the university's larger communication goals and that can be used to reach multiple internal and/or external audiences. If it is determined that a video is appropriate, resources are available and the project fits within the communication priorities of the university, the videographer will setup a pre-production meeting. Considering video demands across campus, a minimum of 10 weeks advance notice may be necessary.

The videographer’s time will not be used for general coverage or live streaming of events, speakers or ceremonies. Coverage of such happenings will be at the discretion of the Office of University Relations and must be in line with the university's larger communication goals.

If we are unable to meet your request, we will recommend alternative resources or options.

The videographer will review and evaluate requests with the following considerations:

The videographer is always looking for visually engaging stories about our students, faculty, staff, alumni, programs and initiatives. We need you to be brand champions and help us recognize the excellent work happening at UT Martin. If you have a video idea or request, please fill out our Idea Submission/Request Form.
