In-Office Team Building Activity in Toronto (a fun, new way to improve morale & productivity!)

Introducing a great new team-building activity that can be done right in your office or other workplace:

The Workplace Mock-Doc (tm)
The Workplace Mock-Doc is a great way to demonstrate the power of effective team-building strategies. Basically what happens is this - we come to your office or workplace and make a faux, funny documentary much like the TV show The Office. 

1) After an initial consultation, we begin by having a short meeting during lunch to discuss the roles that need to be assigned for the video project. We give a short, comprehensive movie-making seminar. We then help to form a storyline and explain all of the tasks needed to be completed and find out who is interested in the various roles, such as: camera operator, writers, director of photography, lighting, etc.

2)  We come back a week or so later, usually on a Wednesday (or during slower periods) and bring very streamlined gear. We then shoot the video as per the plans and script which have been created by our team and your team.

3) We edit the piece and plan a screening. Every team member gets a copy of the video project on DVD or as a data file (such as Windows Media Video - ".wmv" or Quicktime). 

4) We summarize what went into the making of the project and include a printed report for all to see. This way, people are reminded of the complexity of the project and are able to literally 'see right through' the finished video at all of the individual components that were needed to create it.

This new, cost-effective team building activity has many benefits, including: completing it at your place of work, clearly demonstrating what a strong team can accomplish and sharing a few laughs when the project is screened.
