 It's that time of year again! BATV is currently working on putting together our annual Holiday Greetings video and we need YOU!
Are you a non-profit, business, family, or individual working or living in Billerica? Holiday greetings are a great way to connect with the Billerica community and also promote your organization. We'll gladly share individual greetings with everyone who participates so you can use them on your own social media platforms/websites. We plan to have the videos completed and ready to share by December 8th. If you'd like to participate, we have a few options. 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗶𝗼! We have the option of recording in our studio in front of the green screen. We have a number of festive animated backgrounds that we'll edit in. We've blocked off the following days/times: You're welcome to dress in festive attire or bring festive props. Try to avoid wearing green though, as this could cause problems when filming in front of the green screen. Don't see a time there that works for you? Contact us and we can work something out for you or...... 𝗪𝗲'𝗹𝗹 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗬𝗼𝘂! For those who sign up early, we can come to your organization and film a holiday greeting on site. Contact Tara at tara@batvinc.org by November 29th and we can schedule a time to come to you. 𝗦𝘂𝗯𝗺𝗶𝘁 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗢𝘄𝗻 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴! Film and submit your own holiday greeting and share it with us. If you film your video using a cell phone, please be sure to film horizontally. Email paul@batvinc.org to let us know if you would like to submit a video and we'll provide you with details to do so. We hope you'll join us in wishing the Billerica community a Happy Holiday Season!
