CAPITAL CAMPAIGNS & CROWDFUNDING VIDEOS

One Campaign. One School. One Community.

We created this piece for MCWS, located in Freeport, ME to help them promote and raise funds for a new high school to join the middle school campus. Successfully funded, the high school is currently under construction (Spring 2017) and is scheduled to open in Fall of 2017.

Camp Agawam was looking specifically for an internal Capital Campaign video to share in private one-on-one meetings and events with alumni and donors.  After filming for 3 full days at their all-boys camp in Raymond, Maine we constructed a campaign video about a nearly 100 year-old camp from over a dozen interviews with staff, parents, and campers.

Once O-At-Ka saw the video we made for Agawam the previous year, they wanted nearly the same style for their own marketing and fundraising uses. With a slightly larger budget, we were able to invest a bit more time and resources into the production and really focus on the many interviews and activities we filmed.

The Children’s Museum & Theatre of Maine approached us to create a compelling and emotional video to accompany their direct campaign fundraising for their new building on Thompson’s Point. By incorporating interviews with children - their primary stakeholders - as well as parents, we were able to see firsthand just how much of an impact this museum has on our community. The public phase of their fundraising will begin in February 2019, at which point we can’t wait to share this video with the world.

We had worked with Cara Stadler in the past, so we were very excited to hear about her new endeavor. This video launched on Kickstarter in the summer of 2018 and was successfully funded, raising almost double their goal. We were proud to help support this project.

Watershed Ceramics initially reached out to create a campaign video (still in production) but from that, also decided to double-up and create an "About Watershed" version from the same set of material.  This video paints a visually beautiful and descriptive picture of what it's like to spend a residency at this facility.

We recently teamed up with design firm Might + Main to create video and photo content for the Portland Public Schools' new promise campaign.  We interviewed 10 alumni to create this longer piece, while also piecing together short vignettes about each person individually.  That content can be found here.
