Mountain Day
From the Nominator
"Each September, Holderness School students spend an entire day--known as Mountain Day--climbing mountains, paddling rivers, and scaling rock faces throughout New Hampshire’s rugged White Mountains. We decided to chronicle that day through video. With help from students, teachers, and staff, we compiled a short video that captured the fun and exhilarating experience of that day.
Using several GoPros, iPhones, a drone, and other cameras distributed across various groups, we created a budget-friendly, authentic video centered around the student experience of Mountain Day. The resulting video, edited in-house by our marketing and communications team, was one of the most popular videos of the year on our social media channels. It effectively communicated the centrality of the outdoors in the Holderness School experience in a very effective, authentic, and budget-friendly way."
