| The Ohio State University Freshman Welcome to Columbus Event |
Up
to five discreet HD motion video sources and three HD graphic sources
with content produced by Bartha were routed to the projection surfaces to
support every segment of the program. The floor projection came to
life with animated video maps highlighting COTA bus routes, Columbus
neighborhoods and destinations through the utilization of Google Earth. OSU students added a live performance
element as they interacted with the animated maps and points of interest.
To welcome students to Columbus, the opening
video module included well known OSU Alumni including members of the band
O.A.R., Jeni Britton Bauer, Eddie George, Chris Speilman, Tami and Claire
Longaberger, Stephanie Hightower and Clark Kellogg. Each introduced themselves
as 'once OSU freshman' and added a personal message.
To whet the appetite of students and motivate
them to explore the city through their taste buds, Bartha shot and edited a
delicious video on Columbus' food scene. This included interviews from
Liz Lessner, President of the Columbus Food League and owner Betty's Fine Food and Spirits and Surly
Girl Saloon, Jeni Britton Bauer of Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams, and Cameron
Mitchell of Cameron Mitchell Restaurants. Current Ohio State students weighed
in on their favorite places to dine in Columbus and described the delectable
offerings from local restaurants.
The closing of the program included crowd
interaction with representatives from local businesses, Columbus sports team
mascots, The Ohio State marching band and OSU cheerleaders. It ended with an
upbeat C-BUS cheer and a surprising pyrotechnics display.
