We need your help! We need a short video of your staff and residents for a project for the Annual Meeting Virtual Experience. Take a short video of your staff and residents saying “hi” to fellow LeadingAge and VNAA/Elevating HOME members around the country.

Here are some ideas for your recording:

• Wave and cheer your hellos
• Hold up a hand-made sign or your community’s banner
• Show team pride by wearing matching outfits, funny hats, etc.
• Play music and dance

Deadline: Sunday, October 25

Length: Not to exceed 1 minute

Recording Guidelines

Are you self-recording? (not to exceed 1 minute)

Filming Devices

You can use basically anything – your cell phone, laptop, tablet, or video-friendly camera. If you are using your laptop, Zoom is great. You can record yourself with a free membership (just sign in and start a meeting and hit “record” button on the lower right of the screen)

Phone / Camera Orientation

If you use your phone or tablet (or camera), please hold your device horizontally (instead of vertically or in portrait mode). Your image should fill the screen.

Framing

Your team should be centered in your screen, landscape/widescreen, not vertical

Surroundings

• Try to find a quiet outdoor area for filming (if the weather permits)
• Avoid areas with loud background noise (traffic, wind, loud vents, or appliances)
• Make sure the light is on team member faces

Audio

Your filming device’s internal microphone should be fine
