Today’s Yearbook Video of the Week comes from the staff at Laurens-Marathon High School in Laurens, Iowa, who crafted a nice one-minute commercial to explain what the yearbook means.
The cool thing about this video is its simplicity – a well-done montage of students each expressing their thoughts on what they think the yearbook is.
The yearbook video of the week as we roll into March comes from the yearbook staff at Kaneland High School in Maple Park, Ill.
You should be able to spot right away that the guys involved in the making of this commercial for the Kaneland yearbook seemed to have a good time. And, they really seemed to spread their dramatic wings!
The Yearbook Blog’s video of the week comes from the yearbook staff at Nashville Christian School.
This commercial for the yearbook that the staff placed on YouTube was their first attempt at making a promotional video and you’ll probably notice the similarity to a series of popular national TV commercials.
In the Yearbook Blog’s continuing look at some of the most creative video work that was done this year to promote yearbooks, we go to Rawlinson Middle School in San Antonio, Texas.
The staff at Rawlinson did several commercials for the yearbook and posted them on YouTube. Here’s a sample.
Yearbook staffs all over the country have been doing some creative, fun stuff making YouTube and Facebook videos to promote the yearbook this year.
For the rest of the school year, a couple times a month the Yearbook Blog will show off some of that awesome work by featuring the “yearbook videos of the week.”
Have you ever thought about taking your old high school yearbook, flipping through the signatures, and tracking down old friends to see where they are now – 10, 20 years later? Oh, and doing all this completely unannounced.
Well, that’s exactly what independent filmmaker Greg Benson did recently after Walsworth asked him to produce a fun video about yearbooks.
Yearbook staffs are doing all kinds of creative things with online yearbook videos on YouTube and Facebook. They’re creating take-offs of popular commercials from Sonic, Apple and several other ad campaigns.
Those are all great attention-grabbers, and it’s a very cool exercise for the yearbook staff to get a little creative and go crazy making a fun yearbook commercial. However, quick montage video ads that show off the photography of the yearbook are also effective as well.

Clare Ogle, the adviser at Reading Senior High School in Reading, Pa., does that by coming up with innovative promotions, and then making videos about it.
Give the yearbook staff at Kerr High School in Houston some credit for a great sense of humor with this video to promote the book.
