Step 2) Start discussion with your AV or videography department if they are willing to help with the video part of the application. If they are not available, determine who you can talk with about renting a GoPro or even using your phone to do the video. Perhaps one of your students is even willing to help?  If you have any questions about the video requirements, see the part of the application about it (Supporting Video Tour). Feel free to contact me if you have any additional questions about the video.
