Start-Up Diary - Tapping Community Resources

by jim on September 11th, 2007

My start-up web site needs high quality videos to sell as streaming video or DVDs.  I tried to shoot my own with very limited success.  Because this is a risky start-up I don’t want to put any more resources into it than a possibility can.  What other resources can I tap?  The local state university has a under graduate and graduate film school.  They always need projects.  This is a decent one.  Maybe they will do it.

I called and asked.  They said that they would consider it.  I wrote a proposal.  Now they are considering it.  One of the nice things the university has been known to do is partner-up on start-up ventures.  Maybe I can get them to do that which would open up more resources.  First, I need to get the video made.

What happens if they turn me down?  There are two other schools in town that teach video production.  I can tap them.
