Video for universities

Offer-holder messages, course previews and clearing replies, at admissions-cycle speed.

Universities make four: an offer-holder welcome, a course or module preview, a clearing enquiry reply and an internal staff communication. Each is produced in minutes, which is what a clearing week actually requires.

Why video earns its place here

Conversion between offer and enrolment is where video matters. A named message from the course leader, sent the week the offer lands, reaches applicants holding several offers at once.

Clearing is a volume problem with a personal answer. Short course-specific replies produced during the week itself outperform a generic clearing landing page for the same spend.

A worked script outline

  1. 1Name the course and the applicant's stage"You are holding an offer for BSc Computer Science starting in September."
  2. 2Describe the first year honestly"Year one is four core modules, with two assessed by project rather than exam."
  3. 3Give the deadline that matters"Accommodation applications close on the thirty-first of July."
  4. 4Close with a named contact"The admissions team for this course replies to this address within two working days."

Compliance and tone notes

  • Course content, assessment and entry requirements described on camera form part of the information applicants rely on, so keep them aligned with the published course page.
  • Employment and salary outcomes must come from published datasets and be attributed, never estimated in a script.
  • Do not imply an offer, a scholarship or an accommodation guarantee that has not been made in writing.
  • Accessibility requirements apply across the sector, so captions and transcripts should accompany every published video.

Questions people ask

Is there a free tier?

Yes, without a card, so a single department can trial it before a central procurement conversation. Offer-holder messages are the usual starting point.

Can I use my own likeness?

Yes. Course leaders record footage once and then front every offer-holder message for their course across the cycle.

Do you support other languages?

Yes, 42 languages, which international recruitment teams use for pre-arrival and visa-process information rather than marketing claims.
