Blackburst Entertainment Teams Up with Regional Workforce Boards
Videos help attract new employers, educate jobseekers, and promote One Stop Centers.
Workforce Experience
In 2006, Blackburst Entertainment took on the task of creating a video for Workforce Central Florida. The goal was to inform people on the many free services Workforce Central Florida was offering through their One Stop Career Centers. The project was very successful, and later that year, Blackburst created a second video for WFCF to aid with their Welfare Transition Program. The Welfare Transition video guided jobseekers through the Welfare Program requirements and gave them an overview of their path to new employement.
In 2007, Blackburst Entertainment was contacted by Workforce Alliance of Palm Beach to bid on a project for their region. Workforce Alliance's goal was to reach out to new businesses and to give them a more detailed picture of what Workforce Alliance could do for their business. Blackburst producers and directors shot video at the Palm Beach facility and conducted on location interviews with area business leaders who have already worked with WFA to find employees for their business. The video began with an introduction by a local television news anchor, giving credibility, and for some, a familiar face. The video will be able to be send via DVD and internet to prospective businesses in the area, and we are currently working on a shorter version of the project to be shown at venues like Chamber of Commerce meetings and networking event.
Since then, Blackburst has created many more videos for Regional Workforce Boards. The latest videos are 'workshop' type projects, teaching skills such as resume writing, dressing for success and interviewing skills. The sample below shows just a few segments from our Workforce Collection.
