My years at Biola University were some of the best learning experiences of my life. I am lastingly thankful for that campus, those professors and those classes.
Colin, that was pretty darned awesome. I am proud to say I spent 4 years in the CMA department after this. I think the video did a good job presenting Biola as a University with normal people who enjoy normal things in a normal way, but with uncommon values and standards.
If you haven't heard, we have officially won the US News UA-cam Contest for Why My School Rocks, with our Why Biola Rocks video. Thanks everyone for your views, comments, and support!
enjoyed the video! brought back lots of memories to me and my wife! So glad that as a school it's stay on course to what's it's called to be. - Biola Alumni '96
May I just say, I go to Biola, I'm a film student and I think it's so well done. Also, ever since I heard of this video it's been 24/7 open on my screen (muted mind you :D) and all i do is just refresh over and over and over again.. we're going to get this guys! :D
az536 says, "and the Cafe (which really ISN'T that amazing)." yo az... when was the last time you went to the cafe. Are you kidding me. It's awesome. Also, 1998 Biola Baseball team. One of the best in Biola history, both on and off the field! This video is the outright winner. Great production!
As an alumnus, I couldn't agree more. The video captures the essential heartbeat of what the university is all about, bringing in both the immediate reactions of students and the underlying orientation to develop Christian leaders in their chosen fields. Thanks for the great work! --Walt, BS-CE '85
Yep, that's the Biola I remember nearly *30* years ago: very cool and rockin' place with little spikes of dorky-ness sprinkled in for good measure. Loved the school, very glad I went, still love the place. Was offered a *much* better education than I was able to recieve. - Eric Messelt, B.S., M.A., J.D.
As a Biola alumna, and a Biola film major (back when it was RTF!), just wanted to say great job!! Made me miss Biola. :) Too bad you guys don't have BAB anymore, that would have made some great shots. ;)
Yes Biola does rock, but since weve showed that, I believe we can get on to other reasons that also attract prospective students, and reasons why current students/alumni/staff/visitors LOVE biola!
Hope the 30 ft. Jesus doesn't scare U.S. News and World Report away. Great video! Long live RTF! It was good to see the ol' Production Center again. -RTF Survivor '05 -H34T SteeZ Alum -Mock Rock SOLO Broomdance Winner '03
a) you can ride scooters everywhere, anytime, and anyone can do so. we have a Learning the tricks of the Razor 101 class if you want to sign up for it, although its hard to get into the class because everyone wants to be in it. b) no it wasnt..
Az536, I see what your saying, but I think you have missed the point. This wasn't a promotional video for Biola, but a student representation of why Biola rocks.. We did remember to mention things such as the amazing community, Godly professors and students, a Christ centered education, God's presence, and Dr. Corey stated a lot of our school's mission. Keep in mind, it is a 5 minute long video (with a 10 min limit) and we feel we touched on many of the important things Biola has to offer.
ccabalkaproductions - where did you get the background music? I would like to find good bg music that is not cheesy. Are there any resources you can point me to? Thanks!
This video is really cool, but there are still so many more reasons why BIOLA ROCKS!!!! That didn't get put in because of time or whatever. Like: Even though we are a Christian school we still have people from different religions like Buddhism and Musilm come and share their beliefs as Distinguished speakers, we can pray and worship on campus in public without fear of criticism, after 100 year we still have kept our original purpose and stayed true to our beliefs, we value diversity
this is a great video guys and you did an amazing production with it. As for you az536 im sure all the students would immediatly choose biola because "the amazing schools of business and psychology? The nationally renowned Torrey Honors Institute? Our state of the art library?" Yeah all those reasons want to make me go to biola much more than watching this video did good luck guys i know you will win this and dont listen to dumb people who pretend to know what the fuck they are talking about
Next time you make this video Ryan McMican needs to be in it, or perhaps make a new video called the real reason Biola rocks, and the answer to that would definitely be, Ryan McMican.
Az536 are you sure you watched the video? we tried our best to show that we are a God centered university without alienating the rest of America. I love Biola like none other because of all those reasons you have stated, but like cproductions said that wasn't even really the purpose of the video. So I hope you enjoyed the video seeing it from that point of view. Hopefully people can see this video check out our school and then learn all those amazing things about our university there after.
I agree with Liquid. However, had it been Ryan McMican at the beginning, that would have been incredible. Ryan McMican would be the star of your show, for He is the answer as to why your school rocks. Ryan McMican could have thrown the football from endzone to the other, and still caught it in time, without trying to play a trick on the camera by just throwing it high. No, His superiority is legit.
Yeah, I thought you would have won, still it is very unprofessional not to notify all the people in the contest. well, have fun, where are you guys going after all?
Why isn't Ryan McMican in this video? That is the main reason Biola rocks, cause of Ryan McMican. Ryan McMican is why your school rocks, it's cause of him. That should be in the video. Ryan McMican should be in the video. Like, a 30ft tall Ryan McMican, beacuse he is the greatest...EVER. Ryan McMican. Oh and, Ryan McMican, Ryan McMican, Ryan McMican. Reason Biola rocks = you guessed it, Ryan McMican.
please watch your language dude, I'm not sure you are a proper representation of what a fan of Biola would be --Biola is great b/c of of the God it serves
great job, colin and all who worked on this! LOVED the barry corey section at the end. gave me chills...
thanks for the support everyone!
keep coming back and viewing it, especially if you like it

Thank you Tiff!Were glad to represent Biola!

I am happy to be dethroned from the number one spot on a "Biola" keyword search. Colin, you are amazing, and Biola does indeed rock!
Good work. Brings back great memories!

The clip of Prez Corey is unbelievable. To think that awesome speeches in academia are coming from our school.
I visited Biola for University Day and I absolutely loved it!
It's such an amazing school
Great job Guys! It is obvious students like you are why BIOLA ROCKS!!!!
thank you brenna!

What are you talking about?
You too? What for?
Lol Marshall! :)

its a 4 year private christian university.
it has a political science program.
it was tight except for the beginning with that one boy's frat video application....really?
Yeah, I thought you would have won, still it is very unprofessional not to notify all the people in the contest. well, have fun, where are you guys going after all?
congrats! you successfully made us look like a bunch of tools. scooters? guy to girl ratio? kickin' it in the caf?
and we have an UNDEFEATED Football team!!!!
Just kidding
Why isn't Ryan McMican in this video? That is the main reason Biola rocks, cause of Ryan McMican. Ryan McMican is why your school rocks, it's cause of him. That should be in the video.

I hate tools.
HAHA!!! thats funny
You should. ;)
LOL
Δεν ξέρω τι σας κάνει ο Θεός σας αλλά κάτι δεν έχετε πιάσει σωστά παιδάκια μου.
