Website lets graduates around the world celebrate

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

New Zealand website lets graduates around the world celebrate in a whole new way.

Christchurch, New Zealand – September 29, 2012 New Zealand company GradVids is now offering a unique opportunity for University graduates to access and share their graduation ceremony videos online.

By partnering with leading educational institutions, GradVids offers a post-production video editing service where each student receives a personalised video clip of the ceremony, and the moment they receive their degree or diploma.

GradVids director Ben Jepsen says the website provides a modern alternative to traditional graduation DVD’s.

“GradVids clips are what every graduate has been waiting for. While it’s great to see the whole ceremony, most graduates and their friends & family want the focus to be on their special moment – and that’s what we provide. Traditionally you would have had to sit through a 2 hour DVD just to see you graduate, and this is something you would only want to do once and you are limited to your living room. Not any more, now you have a fully produced, high impact three minute digital video clip which is accessible on any digital device, can be watched and relived within minutes and shared with friends and family within seconds.”

Ben says the website currently holds the world’s largest database of individually personalised graduation videos and it’s growing.

“Using Cloud technology, we can provide a global archive for student graduation videos from all over the world.”

Educational institutions can also benefit from partnering with GradVids. Ben says the videos provide a very powerful search engine marketing opportunity for their associated Universities. Universities can receive even more positive promotion from social media sharing. The use of leading technology and an online format allows the videos to be shared via popular social media sites such as Twitter, Facebook and YouTube – so students can share their graduations with friends and family from all over the world.

"Thanks to modern technology we've been able to transform graduation videos into historic records of achievement worthy of being shared with friends and family online and accessible forever,” says Ben.

As soon as the GradVids production team have uploaded new videos to the site, students, friends and family can unlock their video by paying a small one-off fee. A small price for a important and everlasting memory. For more information on partnering with GradVids or purchasing your video, please visit www.gradvids.com.
