Passing the Mug: Coffee Club Leadership Brews a New Chapter at DU
For many students, coffee is simply a way to wake up before class. For members of the University of Denver’s Coffee Club, however, it is much more than that. Coffee has become a way to build friendships, create community, and connect with other students who share a common interest.

The storyline in this interview is pretty simple, its a friends reflection on two years living in dorms on campus at the university of Denver. The slideshow is actually a mix of both photo and video. I thought photos alone wouldn’t be able to hold a viewers interest the best, so there’s some video as well. The final edit is an overview of the interviewees opinions about the dorms.
Since audio is such an integral part of video, I added some sound effects to try and give the photos some weight and presence. These days there is a lot of talk about an “attention economy”, in this climate videos can better grab a viewer with good audio design. The slides are in the order they are because I aimed to sync the photos and videos up with what topic the interviewee was discussing.
I’m incredibly happy with how this came together. In the future I want to add more of a Ken Buns effect to photos. I didn’t do so with this project as I felt it didn’t suite the rapid editing style. I feel that viewers often associate the Ken Burns effect with docu-drama. Tonally I going for a cozy video so I wanted to stray away from that association.
