LabTV video profiles of university biomedical lab researchers are being made by student filmmakers and journalists at the same university as the labs. To lead this effort, LabTV has brought in Emmy award winning filmmaker David Hoffman, with over 50 years of experience and more than 150 PBS specials to his credit. David has created video profile templates with researchers at UC Berkeley and UCSF for students to watch. These templates can be viewed at: http://lab-tv.org/filmmakers/video-profile-templates/. David will be available to work directly with participating student filmmakers and journalists. Dartmouth was selected to participate. We are seeking student filmmakers and journalists to create video profiles. The project will only take about a week's worth of work, which can be spread out over the course of one to two months. This is an opportunity to build an impressive sample reel and have your work showcased as part of a global project that will generate considerable buzz. Additionally, you will have access to LabTV resources and mentoring from David Hoffman. Top submitted videos will be included in a tentative special event with the Tribeca Film Festival around LabTV's launch in April and LabTV is hosting a competition, where David's team will be selecting the best videos with prizes totaling $10,000. We recommend that students contact David Hoffman as soon as possible, as spaces are limited and we are moving forward quickly.
