Sample History Video from the Duquesne University Interactive CD-ROM

This sample video was created to be included on the Duquesne University CD-ROM. While the final result is a simple 3-minute video, an extreme amount of preparation and work was done to create this piece. First, a script was written that included key highlights in Duquesne's history. The script was then taken to Dennis Woytek, a professor in the multimedia department with a distinguished radio voice, who volunteered to read and record the script. The music department generously submitted several recorded works by the Duquesne choir. An appropriate song was selected and sampled to create the background which appropriately crescendos during the transition from past to present. Various images were pulled from the University archives which were scanned and retouched. Each of the elements was meticulously synchronized in Adobe Premier, and the end result was optimized for playback on CD-ROM.
