Blue & Gold Campaign for Students

UBC students are each uniquely talented, but not all have the same opportunities. Massif Creative produced a series of videos to support the launch of the largest student campaign in UBC history.

UBC students are the next generation of leaders, poised to create meaningful change and tackle the challenges shaping our world. To support their success, UBC launched the Blue & Gold Campaign for Students, an initiative to raise $100 million in student support over three years.

Massif Creative was engaged to produce a series of campaign videos for both the launch and ongoing storytelling throughout the three-year initiative. Our team of creative directors, copywriters, videographers, editors, and motion graphic designers collaborated closely with UBC’s Development and Alumni Engagement department to craft a manifesto video that articulates the passions, ambitions, and impact of UBC students.

We also produced a suite of student interview videos across both the Vancouver and Okanagan campuses, highlighting stories from students with financial need, students from under-represented communities, and recipients of leadership-based awards.

As part of the larger campaign produced by UBC’s Development and Alumni Engagement team, the manifesto video received a Silver Award in Video & Multimedia: Fundraising and Alumni Relations Videos at the 2019 CASE District VIII Communications Awards.
