Tempe-based
Creative Environment holds an annual event called the "Vision
Awards." It is a large function for their employees
where individual accomplishments are acknowledged and the
strategies for the coming years are publicized. In January
2005, Garrett Zucker suggested the idea of a video that
recaps some history and outlines the future.
Garrett
Zucker conceptualized the video, outlined the script, manipulated
all of the still images, and requested specific motion clips
to be added by the video production company. Zucker directed
the cameramen and video participants in order for his vision
to appear on the screen.
In
a survey that followed the event, many Creative Environments
employees listed the video as their favorite part of the
evening. Environments employees listed the video as their
favorite part of the evening. Additionally, many guest of
Creative Environments employees said that after seeing the
video, if they were looking for a job, they would consider
Creative Environments.
Now
that same video is used as a recruiting tool and all potential
employees must watch it while completing their applications.
