Marietta College left you the following instructions:

Considered by many to be one of the most significant pieces of civil rights legislation in U.S. history, Title IX created academic and athletic opportunities for women and girls at all educational levels, including thousands of Marietta College alumni.

Join us as we pay tribute to the societal impact of Title IX and reflect on 50 years of progress, while also acknowledging current challenges — and the potential for the next 50 years. You can record a video message that shares the personal impact Title IX had on you, to celebrate the accomplishments of female Pioneers, or to reflect on your hopes for the future.

Recording Tips:
  • You can record directly to ThankView on your desktop or mobile device.
    Make sure to film horizontally so you fill the frame.
  • When recording with a phone or tablet, use a tripod or prop it up with something like books for stability. Try not to hold it.
  • Keep your device close for good sound quality but far enough away that you are the focus. Try 3-4 feet.
  • Consider shooting in a location your recipients may recognize.
  • Choose a location that provides balanced lighting. Try to find a room that has a lot of natural light.
  • Record with the window facing you so you benefit from the natural light. If the window is behind you, you will appear shadowed.
  • Choose a flattering angle for your recording. Shooting from below is not usually a person’s best angle.
  • Avoid echo chambers. Oftentimes sparse offices or conference rooms with glass walls can create a lot of echoes.
  • Avoid blustery locations or areas with a lot of foot or vehicle traffic as your device’s mic may pick up noise.
  • Avoid wearing something extremely bright as it will wash you out on camera. Also, make sure it’s something you won’t regret in six months!
