Future First is a charity closing the career gap for those born in low-income homes, by helping state secondary schools and colleges develop a thriving and engaged alumni community. Their latest idea is to develop tools that can be used by schools to create and maintain a library of videos in which school alumni describe their school experience and subsequent career. The recording app should structure the video recording with interview questions, and constrain recording times relevant to each question with appropriate messages and visual timer countdown, in a way that is encouraging and user friendly. The system should allow current students to find alumni with similar interests and experience to their own. It should also allow school administrators to manage the library of interviews, customize the interview questions for their school, and have a workflow for checking and approving new videos for release.
