ConstantNow traveled to Georgetown, SC last week to shoot the first segments for their new Virtual Hospital program, created for the SC Hospital Association.
This project is devoted to delivering a look inside the many aspects of patient care within a modern hospital. The linear, web-based video program will give SC students an interactive look into the daily lives of the people on the front lines of healthcare, highlighting an assortment of departments and professionals in their work environments. The story lines will revolve around the professionals describing what they do and how they fit into the overall scheme of individual patient care.
Each segment follows key members of a department as they address “real” cases, what they are doing, and allow the audience to become a virtual job shadow for their career. Location production will continue through the fall in several SC hospitals, check back for further updates.

A new 60-second broadcast spot, produced for the SC Dept. of Public Safety with our partners at Fisher Communications began airing this week. Capturing the look and feel of a popular television series, we set out to produce a PSA that would stand out as a condensed glimpse into the first hour of a DUI arrest. And it’s not every shoot that you get to bring a bunch of beer and set up a bar scene at the DPS training center….
The first spot in this year’s statewide enforcement blitz, we’re looking forward to producing Episode 2 soon…. We’ll post it on our site soon, in the meantime you can see it on YouTube.

We just posted the updated Specialminds.org website. Specialminds is an organization dedicated to providing information and multimedia resources that offer immediate assistance to families and professionals dealing with the everyday issues that come with a diagnosis of an autistic spectrum disorder.
Working with our close friends at Specialminds, we redesigned their web presence and completely reworked the packaging and DVD interfaces for Storymovies, the DVD series based on Carol Gray’s renowned “Social Stories” book series. New discs in the series are in production, so look for continued updates.

Late last summer, I had the opportunity to visit the set of “Encounters”, a Chinese language project produced by our friends at Truth Function for Yale University. Shot on location across China, I joined the crew half way through with fresh supplies and to pick up footage shot up to that point.
The area of southern China I visited is near Guilin, about 200 miles from the Vietnam border. A tourist town visited for the limestone mountains, Yangshuo was filled with Chinese tourists, restaurants, street vendors and nightlife. Crew referred to it as the Gatlinburg of China.
Also had the chance to follow the “C” Unit crew to the Longji Rice Terraces, a pretty amazing place. Local ethnic group has been carving the terraces since 1300 AD, the magnitude of it was unreal. The village at the top is only accessible by walking 45 minutes up the main path. Everything up there was brought by hand.
I took a lot of behind the scenes pictures from the sets in Yangshuo and Longji as well some tourist shots. You can see them here.
As part of the project, ConstantNow created an array of marketing materials for the new program that strives to teach Mandarin Chinese through language and culture. You can see the original marketing video here.

Marketing to Physicians
ConstantNow recently completed Self Regional Healthcare’s Physician recruiting presentation. Working with Self’s current graphic style, we built an eye catching and dynamic presentation geared towards attracting new physicians to the Greenwood, SC area. Our approach was to create a new, Flash-based version of the presentation that’s much more streamlined than the original.

- Inside the OR with KershawHealth Orthopedic Team
Students from 15 South Carolina high schools recently had the chance to get a front row seat to a total hip replacement surgery shot and edited entirely in high definition at a KershawHealth operating room. With ConstantNow at the production helm, the Virtual Surgery Insider (VSI) took roughly 500 students in Kershaw, Lee, Lancaster and Richland counties inside the operating room via cameras and the Internet. Today’s event marks the seventh VSI event in three years that ConstantNow has collaborated with the South Carolina Hospital Association to produce. Streaming video of the surgery and live narration by the surgeons combined with live chat interaction with students make the program immersive and memorable. You can see some of the behind-the-scenes pictures here.
