Thank you for showing interest in recording a recruitment message for our prospective students.

Please record a 45-second video of yourself by Friday, March 14. Below are suggested talking points to create a personalized video: 
  • Your name, graduation year, and program, relating to the student cohort you are reaching - are you first-gen yourself? Were you a transfer student? Military/veteran?  
Couple of questions for your consideration:
  • Why did you choose CU Denver? 
  • How has attending CU Denver made a difference in your life?
  • Closing words - Inspirational push to join the Lynx Community!
Click on the button below to record your video. Before filming, remember to review the Recording Tips in the "How do I record a video" dropdown.

Please let me know if you have any questions. 

Thank you,
Lauren Jacobs, 
Director of Alumni Engagement
University of Colorado Denver

Recording Tips:
  • You can record directly to ThankView on your desktop or mobile device.
  • Film horizontally so you fill the frame.
  • When recording with a phone or tablet, use a tripod or prop it up with something like books for stability. Try not to hold it.
  • Keep your device close for good sound quality but far enough away that you are the focus. Try 3-4 feet.
  • Consider shooting in a location your recipients may recognize.
  • Choose a location that provides balanced lighting. Natural light is best - recording facing a window to benefit from the natural light. 
  • Choose a flattering angle for your recording. Shooting from below is not usually a person’s best angle.
  • Avoid blustery locations or areas with a lot of foot or vehicle traffic as your device’s mic may pick up noise.
Video Content Tips:
  • The content of your video is ultimately up to you. Make it funny, sweet, informative - whatever tone you want.
  • We advise always starting with gratitude and excitement!
  • Create a video between thirty seconds and a minute to keep people engaged.
  • Be yourself and have fun!
