Client: The Hutchins School
Date: 2021
Hutchins, one of Australia’s oldest and most distinguished schools, engaged us to create a short video for their alumni audience that promoted the 1846 Society – established to acknowledge and honour those who have confirmed a bequest to the School.
What we delivered:
We provided full production services for the project including concept development, videography in Hobart – at the schools current and former campuses, and post production. Basic VFX and 3D elements were also created for the piece.
The video features Hutchins alumni Simon Bamford (1970), Robert Dick (1953) and Brian Kemp (1952). Old boys in the video recollect memories from their school years and discuss their reasons for leaving a bequest to the school. Scenes in the video were filmed at the old Hutchins School campus in Macquarie Street, Hobart – and also at the current campus and school museum in Sandy Bay. The video includes a digital restoration of the school coat of arms – put back to its former position on one of the large arched windows in the Macquarie Street building. The final video was used on the school’s website and social media platforms and found strong levels of engagement.
