Who isnβt a sucker for a special treat on Valentineβs Day?
For our special Valentineβs Day video this year, the UCM Social and Creative teams collaborated with and Culinary Services to cook up β or should we say bake β something sweet for our students!
You may have seen Flash walking around ΒιΆΉΣ°ΤΊ Campus earlier this week with cookie pops in hand to share the love and we were right there to film all the action.
Hereβs a little behind the scenes info in case you were wondering how it all came together.
To get this idea rolling, we reached out to our friends within Culinary Services to see if they could create a special treat that Flash could distribute easily. The cookie pops were the winning option!
The day of filming the Culinary Services crew had the pops beautifully decorated and individually packaged for us to shoot. Naturally, Flash had to put his own special take on the decorations in the kitchen to film those βbakingβ shots. Then we packed up those pops and started to walk around campus. The students had a blast seeing Flash in the flesh β well, feathers β and were sure to grab hugs, selfies, and the cookie pops while we had them. In the end, we have a super sweet video to share.
In case you missed the final version on our Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or TikTok accounts, here it is!
A special thank you once again to Culinary Services for the delightfully decorated and delicious cookie pops, to Flash for being the best mascot around and to all the students who participated in this video!
And here's a special Valentine's Day poem just for our Golden Flashes community.
Happy Valentine's Day, Flashes!
