Videos, Videos, and More Videos

Posted on September 23, 2009 by in FACS Resources, New Products

This last week we have been working with our film crews to shoot several new videos for our 2010 catalog. Here’s a sneak peak at what’s on the docket:

  • Sew Green DVD. This video was shot in my backyard and features environmentally-friendly creative sewing projects. See pictures of the shoot from our video talent, Kim. Check out some of the sewing projects below (one is a laptop case made from designer fabric samples, the next is a messenger bag made from fused plastic bags, and the last one is a water bottle sleeve made from an old sweater):

 

  • Health Sciences Careers DVD. We interviewed professionals in the field as well as students at local colleges.
  • Building Blocks: Developing Memory in Developing Brains DVD. This will be a great video to show in early childhood classes!
  • Career Profile: Dr. Verna DVD. This is a video about leadership and people who add or subtract to your life. She is a very motivational lady!
  • A video about transferable job skills is also coming. It will be filmed in the style of The Office!

Save Money at the Grocery Store

3501 211x300 Save Money at the Grocery Store

Want to learn a few simple tips that will save you money at the grocery store? I’m sure your students do to!

One way to save money is to choose fresh fruit and vegetables that are in season – when they are less expensive. If the fresh produce you want looks like it’s not at peak quality, frozen is a better choice. Frozen produce also sometimes has a higher nutrient content because it’s frozen at its peak.

You can find more tips like this in our new DVD, Grocery Shopping Challenge, which is packed full of ways to help you shop smart and healthy, while getting the most bang for your buck at the grocery store.
