How to Build a Hospital in 7 Days

Description

MSF is using an innovative, new modular structure to quickly construct high-quality, long-lasting hospitals in the field. MSF has leveraged virtual reality (VR) technology to create a training video teaching field teams how to build these new structures in the projects where they work. Able to be constructed in challenging climates, and lasting up to 30 years, this new construction solution presents a major innovation in MSF’s ability to maintain the highest quality of care for its patients.

What Works Well

This video is not just an interesting look at the construction of a modular medical facility but also a real world training video that shows how to construct a hospital on-site, leveraging many guided elements skillfully along the way.

Level of Guidance

What does this mean?

The Level of Guidance indicates how much the creator has imbued the video with a sense of at what the viewer should be looking.

For instance, a Level 1 video would mean that the camera has been left in place while life happens around it, allowing you, as the viewer, to simply observe. A Level 2 video might incorporate subtle visual, textual or audible hints or simple transitions. A Level 3 video would rely on a handful of hints and transition. A Level 4 video would employ multiple hints and dialogue. And a Level 5 video would rely on all of the above as well as a narrative arc that pushes the viewer forward.

Another way of looking at this would be how much production went into the video if you are considering making one of your own like it.
