In a COVID-19 world, student engagement has suffered drastically as organizations and universities shifted to an online format. Yet, there is still an opportunity and a space for digital content creation to bridge the gap in a virtual and hybrid university lifestyle. This project looks at how student groups can still engage students at ASU Tempe through digital content creation and which tools to use to enter the space.

In an effort to create an exemplar for what brands, “Swipe Stories” is a video series that displays how brands can connect with consumers in a way that is engaging and additive to their life. The paper outlines the ideation, creation and extrapolation of the creative project as well as results that were found. Each step of the process is outlined with detail and notes to benefit both consumers and marketing professionals to understand the ways that longford content can be utilized for the shared value of the consumer and the brand.
