An OU brand initiative, the goal of this docu-series was to dive deeper and tell authentic stories from the OU community. We wanted to let the individual’s story shine with Oakland serving as the backdrop. These videos were featured on social media as well as landing pages for paid digital campaigns in order to further engage the viewer and provide more information about the student featured in the ad.
