Systers, an Anita Borg Institute Community

Create a promo video for our FirstAide mobile app.

Expectation:

Create a video so that all Peace Corps Volunteers (PCVs) in the field will be encouraged to use the mobile app. Emphasize your creative perspective through the promotional video. No need to focus on animations, transitions, or intro screens. We're looking at the content you produce to depict our app as a useful and necessary resource for PCVs.

Steps to complete:

  1. Read through documents of FirstAide app and understand what the app is doing.
  2. Read through PC documents and learn why volunteers need the app and cases where it can be useful.
  3. Set up the development environment and run the app in emulator or get the executable and install on your phone.
  4. Create a video with a length of 1-2 minutes.

It is mandatory that your video includes screenshots from the app.

Required:

As you work on this task, you should join and remain in #gci-general and #firstaide on Systers Opensource Slack to get help, feedback, and guidance from mentors and other developers.

Keep in Mind:

This should be a promotional video. Not a general demo video where you only demo the each step of the app. (e.g. Church App Promo Video, Actor App Promo Video, iGreet App Promo Video) Your video's audience is Peace Corps Volunteers. You can do this for either Android or iOS project.
