CHERRY HILL, NJ – July 12, 2010 – Cherry Hill-based Professional Podcasts LLC, the award-winning video and multimedia production subsidiary of Lubetkin Communications LLC, has produced a web video news report featuring the Rutgers Future Scholars program at the Rutgers-Camden campus.

During the program, 45 eighth-graders from the Camden school system took part in a career day exploration with South Jersey business leaders. The students also visited four businesses in Camden as part of the program.

The video – viewable in the player above, and also available on the web at http://children.camden.rutgers.edu/future_scholars/index.html -- depicts the career conversations students held, and highlights the students’ visit to Susquehanna Bank’s branch in Camden’s Victor Building and the bank’s regional headquarters on the nearby waterfront.

The video news report includes interviews with Rutgers educators and Susquehanna Bank officials about the importance of the Rutgers Future Scholars Program for keeping students focused on success in school. Susquehanna Bank is providing major financial support for the Rutgers Future Scholars Program.

“We are pleased to continue our video production relationship with Rutgers-Camden. The continued shrinkage of the broadcast television industry means that local TV news departments don’t have the resources to cover community and corporate events like the Rutgers Future Scholars,” said Steve Lubetkin, managing partner of Professional Podcasts and principal videographer for the Rutgers Future Scholars program. “Our news wrapper product allows organizations to satisfy their audience’s need for video coverage at an affordable price, and we can offer global distribution at an economic price point.”
