Utah State University’s College of Humanities & Social Sciences needed to launch an online certification course for its new Community Justice Advocate Program—a program designed to train students as certified debt counselors. With limited time and highly technical content, they needed a creative partner to help them turn dense legal material into an accessible, engaging course that would resonate with real students.
Industry: Higher Education / Community Advocacy
Services Provided: Script Development, Multi-Camera Video Production, Animation, LMS-Ready Delivery
The Challenge
Launch a six-module, 24-lesson online course that would educate and certify students as debt counselors.
- Dry, complex scripts originally written in legal textbook format by an attorney
- Tight production schedule due to delayed funding
- Need for content that would work well on video and keep learners engaged
- Uncertainty about how the program would perform in an online format
Our Solution
Strategic Approach: We collaborated with USU to develop a clear, student-friendly course that combined narrative scripting, high-quality video, and animations to bring the material to life.
Script Development & Content Adaptation
- Transformed dense legal content into clear, friendly, and engaging scripts
- Tailored the tone and delivery to fit the program’s diverse student audience
Video Production with Live Action & Animation
- Multi-camera shoot with a cast of actors to simulate real-life scenarios
- Combined instructional content with reinforcing animations to clarify key concepts
LMS-Ready Delivery
- Delivered all videos in a format compatible with USU’s learning management system
- Included closed captions for accessibility and compliance
The Results
This was a brand-new program, and student response exceeded expectations. Learners reported that the course was easy to follow, surprisingly enjoyable, and more professional than other USU online offerings.
