  • Projects are completed by in-house staff or external vendors based on organizational priorities and existing workload.
  • Please provide as much lead time as possible.

Training

We offer training in media relations, social media, content marketing, videography, branding, and other communications topics. We can train your team directly or connect you with effective training resources. See the Training section for self-guided resources.

Spanish-Language Services

Accessibility Support for Videos

We offer guidance on how to make videos intended for web publication compliant with WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility guidelines. Beyond guidance, we also create assets (extended audio descriptions & closed caption files) that must accompany any video published by or on behalf of UC ANR and/or any of its statewide programs.
