With another Fall semester quickly approaching, Greek organizations across the nation are preparing for new incoming freshmen looking to go Greek. As an Odyssey writer, it is really great to see more and more people wanting to make the best decision of their young lives by deciding to go Greek in college. For this upcoming Fall, Odyssey at UCF wants to see which chapters across the nation are the best of the best with a recruitment video contest!
That's right! Do you have a recruitment video that's in the works for Fall semester? Do you want the entire Internet to see how your chapter is the greatest in the world? And do you want your chapter to be the best of the best? Well, you're in luck! Odyssey is here to help!
If you have an awesome recruitment video, I want you to send it to me! If it's worth watching, I will display it on Odyssey website for everyone to see! Odyssey generates over 20 million views per month, so people all over the world will be seeing your recruitment video! Your chapter will be famous all over the World Wide Web!
If you want to participate in this contest, I have listed the steps below! Also, see the examples that have caught our eye over the years!
- Make an awesome fraternity rush/sorority recruitment video for the upcoming term.
- Put it on YouTube or Vimeo and include the hashtags #GoGreek and #RushOdyssey in the captions.
- Send that video to my e-mail. Please include your organization's name and school. You can also send your videos to my Twitter account (@cmari1995) by including the #GoGreek and #RushOdyssey hashtags.
That's all you need to know! So go out, have fun, and make the greatest recruitment video! Check out these examples from previous years!
Fraternity Rush Video Examples:
1. Alpha Epsilon Pi (UCSB Spring 2014)
This video was just incredibly hilarious and hard to ignore, and on top of that, it was very, VERY creative.
2. Kappa Sigma (UCSB Fall 2014)
Short, simple, and yet, one of the most interesting rush videos on YouTube. Well done, Kappa Sig.
3. Delta Sigma Phi (ASU Spring 2015)
Excellent use of scenery, the interviews were kept simple, and the GoPro footage was on-point. All of this makes for a solid fraternity rush video.
Sorority Recruitment Video Examples:
1. Kappa Alpha Theta (UofA 2015)
This video makes me automatically assume that Theta is beautiful and badass. Two thumbs up ladies!
2. Delta Delta Delta (Indiana University 2014)
The two things that caught my eye in this video? Tri-Delt's use of brand recognition and that ridiculously nice house. When can I move in?
3. Delta Gamma (University of Oregon 2013)
I liked how natural they made this video look. It seems as if nothing was scripted, and it came out great!
