Client Video: California School Finance in Plain English
By leelefever on November 26, 2007 - 10:46pm.
This video is a client production for the organization YouthNoise, which aims to encourage youths to get involved and make a difference. The video is currently displayed on the Right to Learn part of YouthNoise.com and was produced with goal of explaining how California schools are funded.This video was an interesting challenge for us. Neither of us are from California, so we learned a lot about school policy in the process. The project caught our attention because YouthNoise is an interesting organization with a target market (16-22 year olds) that was also new to us.
This video also marks Sachi's voice-over debut. Go Sachi!

Nice work
Strong work on the voice-over, there, Sachi. The, uh, art is getting more sophisticated too. Don't get too fancy there, eh? I think part of the appeal is in the simplicity.
Fancy
Sachi thanks you Darren. :-) We both really appreciate the feedback. Can you give us an example or two of what feels too fancy? Maybe the buildings like the capitol building? Just want to be sure we understand...
Lovely.
Very well done, as usual. And Sachi has a nice voice. (Not to discredit the previous videos' voice work, of course!)
But, uhm, it looks like categorical is misspelled every time. Is it a problem with the video resolution?
Spelling
Hi Alejandro,
Thanks for the kind words. I can see what you mean and can assure you that "categorical" is spelled correctly. I think it appears like there are two "L"s thanks to blip.tv's flash transcoding.
New voice!!
Great going Sachi. I love your vioce.Very clear and clean.
No stop and starts just good old diction. You can tell you aren't from the south
Great work--both on the
Great work--both on the video and on your voice-over, Sachi! Very clear and simple, which school finance decidedly is not.
Complex topic presented well
Nice job you two! I was just talking to a friend of mine about how there's a lack of understanding of basic civics and how we can impact it. Great work! (And youthnoise does some great stuff too -- heard about them through ypulse.)
Really interesting way of setting out groundwork
I could see this style of explanation being very useful for introducing 'participatory budgeting' projects in England.
Would work really well as the opener to a workshop which then made use of some of the symbols used in the video...
good info
thanks for this vid, i am from california but have never heard of this school. i will try and find more info about it now.
How long does it take to actually make the video
This video is so very cool looking. It looks like it must take a long time to make, or do you have killer software or equipment that makes it a breeze?
