Drone with GoPro3 Camera Visits Campus


(Targeted News Service Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) SPRINGFIELD, Mass., Oct. 24 -- Western New England University issued the following news release: If you were on campus last Friday and heard buzzing overhead, you were probably being filmed by a hi-def GoPro3+ video camera mounted on a drone. The film crew was from Larry Locke Films and was shooting panoramic sweeps of the campus from above the buildings.The film crew arrived on short notice because they determined the leaf coloring was at its peak.



"Larry Locke, an acclaimed film director who has been recognized for his high-quality work around the world, was on the Western New England University campus to begin shooting a new promotional video that will be used to tell the Western New England story from an exciting, new perspective," explained Bryan Gross, vice president for enrollment management. "Locke will develop a film that will be used to tie Western New England's storied past with our vision for the future, all through the lens of our accomplished current faculty, staff and students," Gross added.

Pieces of this work will also be used for an exciting new welcome center video experience that the University is preparing to unveil to prospective students who visit campus this Spring.


"What really captured the attention of students and faculty was Locke's use of a high definition, remote controlled drone, which was able to capture footage of our beautiful campus and all of our magnificent foliage in a way that has not been done before," added Bryan Gross.
