Did you know that you can take a tour of Press Studio Services and see where your favorite homeschool video teachers get to create lessons? If you come by for a visit, you’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at where all the teaching happens and get to meet some or your favorite teachers too. So, who’s responsible for giving the tours? Recently, Jennifer Matesevac, who has many other responsibilities, has excitedly taken on the opportunity of guiding the tours of Press Studio Services.
With an infectious laugh and an enthusiasm for meeting new people, Mrs. Matesevac takes each tour group through the most interesting parts of the video operation. When we met with her, we were able to see firsthand the places she loves to show to homeschool families.
Featured on Your Tour
Teacher meeting place—She usually begins or ends your tour here with the teachers you requested. The teachers have busy schedules, so if you want to meet your child’s teacher, be sure to schedule your tour early.
Studios—One of the next places you’ll visit is the studios where the teachers record their videos. You might even get to see a teacher recording in progress. What courses will be recording in the studios you get to see?
Scene shop—When you stop by the scene shop, you will meet one of our artists, who designs and creates the sets for the video studios. With a floor like a Jackson Pollock splatter painting, the scene shop is full of current and past projects. You might even get a chance to see an older set from your favorite class. Be sure to ask what the scene shop is working on right now too!
Props and backdrops—Do you know what the sets (and many of the props the teachers use) are made of? In this part of the tour, you’ll get to see many of the sets and props from the classes you’ve taken. You might also see some new items for classes currently being recorded.
