\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With students logging in daily to use Storyblocks across seven different classes, an easy-to-use platform is essential to creating a seamless educational experience for students. As a platform administrator, Schiffman manages access for 40-50 students every year \u2013 a process he says that Storyblocks makes simple and easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Schiffman also knows that students balance multiple projects at any given time, often on tight project timelines. Having access to After Effects and Premiere Pro templates helps students create faster and more efficiently, since they can easily find intros, outros, and other creative templates with just a few easy clicks. This all-in-one access is particularly helpful for Schiffman and students, who are sometimes geographically separated when working and studying in a hybrid academic environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-background has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"background-color:#bbdeff\">It doesn\u2019t matter where you are.

From audio classes to client projects, staff and students can tap into over six million assets within the Storyblocks library, giving them a plethora of professional media to create their stories and assignments. Schiffman especially appreciates the wide range of high-quality sound effects and music, which exposes his students to a variety of musical genres as they learn to perfect their craft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Schiffman and his students also love the Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro templates that Storyblocks provides. Both video editing programs are industry standard software that students need \u2028to master when pursuing careers in the media and video production industry. With pre-made, easy-to-use templates, students can quickly add advanced effects to their projects without starting from scratch or a steep learning curve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The impact of using Storyblocks is tangible. Schiffman says that both students and faculty have won BEA awards for projects using Storyblocks content, including audio and sound effects. One of his students also used an After Effects template to create a promo for a local business as part of their class. The client, who was so impressed with the quality of the student\u2019s work, ended up using the student\u2019s promo as part of their marketing campaign \u2013 a testament to how Storyblocks helps students produce quality work at professional standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"callout wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;If you can\u2019t find what you\u2019re looking for in Storyblocks, <em>you\u2019re not necessarily going to find it somewhere else.<\/em> If it\u2019s not in Storyblocks, go make it yourself.&#8221;<br><br>\u2013 Jeff Schiffman<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-continued-value-creates-a-reliable-long-term-resource\">Continued value creates a reliable, long-term resource<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One class at York College has the students work with clients across a wide range of industries to create video projects, and finding footage is far simpler with access to the Storyblocks library. Schiffman points out that capturing footage of places such as restaurants would be far more complicated and time-intensive for his students if they didn\u2019t have the Storyblocks library as a resource.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He also appreciates how the library continually grows and changes with advancements in the industry and technology, such as adding DaVinci Resolve templates to the Storyblocks \u2028library as the software grows in popularity among industry professionals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-background has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"background-color:#bbdeff\">Storyblocks is <em>pretty valuable for us.<\/em> I can\u2019t imagine the quality of our work being better if we didn\u2019t have something like this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile has-background\" style=\"background-color:#bbdeff\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"355\" height=\"355\" data-src=\"https:\/\/sb-wp-assets.storyblocks.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/27101548\/Jeffrey-Schiffman-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-30225 size-full lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/sb-wp-assets.storyblocks.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/27101548\/Jeffrey-Schiffman-1.png 355w, https:\/\/sb-wp-assets.storyblocks.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/27101548\/Jeffrey-Schiffman-1-150x150.png 150w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 355px) 100vw, 355px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 355px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 355\/355;\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jeff Schiffman<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Professor and Radio Station Manager for WVYC<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-conclusion\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Storyblocks plays an integral part in the education and professional development of students and faculty at York College of Pennsylvania, serving as an invaluable resource for high-quality content that they can use inside and outside the classroom. With a diverse selection of music, footage, and templates to create award-winning projects, students not only enhance their education by using Storyblocks in their daily work, but also better prepare themselves for future roles and careers in video or media production. And to Schiffman, that education and preparation that Storyblocks enables is the greatest reward of all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Storyblocks plays an integral part in the education and professional development of students and faculty at York College of Pennsylvania, serving as an invaluable resource for high-quality content that they can use inside and outside the classroom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":27968,"template":"","topic":[],"class_list":["post-27966","case-study","type-case-study","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.storyblocks.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/case-study\/27966","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.storyblocks.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/case-study"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.storyblocks.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/case-study"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.storyblocks.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27968"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.storyblocks.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27966"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.storyblocks.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic?post=27966"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
