Pass the Kleenex—I have watched this video multiple times and it always moves me to tears. McCallie knocked it out of the park with this original, emotional piece that lets each individual student shine. It is a testament to the lifelong character the school instills, the strong ties of brotherhood, and excellent outcomes. I imagine we'll be seeing a lot of knockoffs 5-6 years from now.
I watched this through tears! First of all, the idea over 7 years represents a professional vision and commitment. And then to follow through with such expertise and professionalism... wow. SO good. Congratulations on producing one of the most compelling school videos I have ever seen!

I love this content from Pingry; it has a little bit of everything: successful school "bragging" mixed with intrigue and humor — it works! The piece is highly engaging because it asks questions of the viewer while highlighting cool student successes, both in and out of school. The overall effect is playful, while skillfully highlighting memorable nuggets that drive home the school's unique value proposition.
This admissions video packs a lot into 90 seconds, featuring students, faculty, coaches and alumni in an upbeat, fun way. It's revealed that a student made the video, which makes it even better.
You packed a lot into a short video and the student narrator/creator makes this stand out.
