ACADEMIC IMAGE
Photography is an influential identity asset and high-quality photos are critical to creating genuine and authentic brand messaging.
Our goal is to convey an immediate sense of space and environment unique to your school, creating a more intimate connection with your audience using photography with strong compositions that provide context for place and generate immediate visual interest.
WHAT WE DO
The Image Library
We’ll visit your classrooms, dining halls and student lounges to capture life on your campus as it happens, un-staged and uncontrived.
Capturing the candid interaction of your students and teachers creates authentic and compelling photography. We’ll work with you to schedule a day of photography that will generate 300-500 images.
When working with a new client we recommend three days of photography to create the beginning of an image library you can go to for multiple needs: Social media, advertising, websites, annual reports, alumni communications and email blasts.
Viewbook Photography
Viewbooks are the ultimate visual platform for institutional storytelling. They require precise visual storytelling and the highest standard of quality photography. Success begins with planning and leveraging a school’s differentiators to demonstrate an institutions unique standing in the academic ecosystem.
Video
Video allows for the creation of a visual story that engages the viewer on both the emotional and cognitive level. It has the power to convey a message in a way that text or still images cannot.
We approach video with the same visual intent as photography. Video conveys information with tremendous emotional impact. Whether you need a video for yield, a landing page or advertising, we’ll respond to your needs and create a beautiful and compelling product. Video is an opportunity to see and hear members of your community tell your story.
Combined Photography & Video
Since we specialize in both photography and video production it’s more efficient to hire Academic Image when both are needed. Using a single agency creates a visual consistency for the brand and streamlines both planning and production.
Consultation
Every academic client is different but many face similar challenges. If you have a message to communicate, chances are we’ve helped a client address a similar challenge. We’ll do it with you but in a way that reflects your brand and culture.
