We’re back at the , taking a look at our outdoor media installation, The Do Good Rings.
As visitors move through the ringed portal, their presence triggers audio clips of Do Good community members describing the journey to their big ideas for doing good on campus, prompting visitors to reflect on how they, too, might make an impact.
The human voice is a tremendous conduit for emotion, so we wanted visitors to hear these stories from the students themselves, in their own words.
Time was limited, as Christine Hernandez, Senior Media Producer, recalls. “These impactful, interesting stories reveal just how passionate Do Good alumni are about the work they do. Our challenge was to pare down the stories we captured into digestible 5-10 second sound bites.”
In addition to students’ words, we added ambient, meditative music and nature sounds to create a sense of peace and awe. The plaza is now the first stop on all campus tours and attracts over 20,000 visitors per year.
See the carousel to see how our designs came to life and a visualization of how audio and light sync with the installation.
