A Video Story Is A Great Way To Stand Out To College Recruiters

United States, June 2, 2022 - College scholarships are becoming more and more competitive, and it is getting harder to stand out from the crowd.

The process of getting a scholarship to play in college is incredibly competitive. And it's only becoming more difficult as the number of high school students playing sports continues to grow.

Over 2.5 million high school athletes compete for about 400,000 college scholarships each year. That is a lot of competition!

The good news is that STORYSMART is here to help. We offer a premium profile video story that will help you get noticed by college recruiters. Our videos are made by experienced television journalists, so you can be sure your story will be told in a way that connects with recruiters.

STORYSMART’s experienced journalists will help you showcase your skills, talents, and personality in a way that will make you memorable to college coaches.

We know that many families don't have the money or resources to hire a traditional video production company make a quality video. That is why we developed a premium service that costs a fraction of what a traditional production company charges.

While offering a cost-certain broadcast quality video at a price that is accessible to many is a major selling point, it is really the quality of our storytelling that makes us the preferred choice.

Following our proprietary STORYSMART method, we will help you stand out from the crowd by telling your story on screen with video in a way that connects with recruiters. Everything we do is audience-focused.

We will lead you through a short pre-production planning process that will ensure you get the story you want targeting the exact audience you define. Then our gifted storyteller will do to work for you.

We have a growing national network of talented one-person-band video storytellers to help our clients tell their stories in a cost-certain, high-quality way. We have some of the most talented television reporters and documentary filmmakers in the business today. It is the combination of a highly experience storyteller following our proprietary SMART approach to storytelling that will ensure you get the story you design and will own forever.

Our proprietary model is superior to most traditional production companies that focus more production and less on story. For us, story is everything. Don’t get us wrong, we set high production standards, but that isn’t nearly as important as telling a good story that connects authentically with your target audience.

Our experienced television journalists will help you capture your athleticism, personality, and academics in a powerful and authentic broadcast quality video profile story.

You’ve worked hard and deserve to stand out. You deserve to have your story told on screen with a video that will help you stand out from the competition.

Think about it - when college coaches are looking at athletes to recruit, the first thing they're going to do is look at their videos. And if you don’t have a good video profile, then you are going to lose out on opportunities.

But with our team of storytelling professionals, we can help make sure that you have the best video possible, showcasing your best qualities as an athlete and student. We want to help you get recruited by the college of your choice.

So what are you waiting for?
