Finding a good graduation gift is tough. You want to find a standout way to send your warmest wishes without them getting lost in the crowd. After all, your friend/family member/acquaintance has worked so hard for their diploma or degree so now they deserve a treat.

That’s where our video maker comes in. By building imaginative graduation videos, you’re showing the graduate just how much you care. You’re also ensuring that they have a gift they can hold on to forever to remind them of this momentous occasion, which everyone can enjoy!

There are three popular choices of graduation video.

The montage: This is usually a few minutes long and features a compilation of congratulations from the graduate’s loved ones.

The greeting: This is simpler and shorter than the montage and consists of a video of yourself wishing the graduate all the best.

The animation: If you’ve left your gift until the last minute, this type of video can be created quickly. It consists of an animated graphic that serves as a playful alternative to a traditional still image.

1. Focus on original material. Seen as though this is a gift from you, add a unique personalized touch by prioritizing content that you’ve shot and pulled together.
2. Use high-quality images and videos. Take advantage of the Boosted stock library and integrate professional imagery to make your video pop on someone’s news feed, driving more likes, comments, and shares.
3. Consider subtitles. Sometimes it’s challenging to tell a story using visuals alone. Add subtitles to your videos for context, such as quotes, anecdotes, or even annotation.
4. Add music from the Boosted library. Music can interfere with the audio during montage or greeting videos. However, it can enhance the narrative and general vibe of image-based videos.
