Simmons University Story

Simmons University partnered with Redgate to guide them through a highly complex construction project called One Simmons. One Simmons is a strategic reimagining of its campus that aims to enhance the student experience by creating gathering spaces, group study areas, new classrooms, and ultimately combining the two campuses into one. Plimsoll was brought in to document this story and produce a series of film packages and visual assets that would be used to celebrate the completion of the project’s second phase and generate excitement ahead of the third and final phase.

Plimsoll began this process by developing a creative brief and storyboard. The brief outlined the key themes, messages, and visuals the film needed to convey. Plimsoll then created a story arc and question prompts to guide interview participants. Plimsoll handled all aspects of onsite production, including crew and location logistics, filming and leading the interviewing of participants, and the creative direction and capture of documentary-style video and photography. 

 

During post-production, Plimsoll scripted and edited the main film package. The film featured interview material, footage of the campus reimagining project, and b-roll throughout the campus and surrounding neighborhood. Plimsoll also produced social content, photography selects, and b-roll segments for Redgate and Simmons to use in their marketing.

Based in Batavia, Illinois, Plimsoll works closely with its clients to understand their needs and develop customized solutions that meet their specific goals.
