Langara College: Rethink scholarship


In the first year of the Rethink Scholarship at Langara College, the call-for-entries video served as an introduction to the scholarship and the application process. For 2010, we offered tried-and-true creative tips paired with classic design techniques to help students get started on their application book. The video is offered as a creative tool and resource, as well as a source of inspiration. It was built with very little budget and a lot of love, which shows what you can do when you put your mind to it.
