Project details

What we need
  • An edited 1-3 minute video delivered in electronic format as agreed upon between the Professional and Organization, with HD quality as a master version, along with any agreed upon formats for final usage
Additional details

We would like someone to help us create a 3 minute video of highlights from our virtual summer camp season to share with donors, community supporters of our nonprofit, medical specialty camp for kids with serious illnesses.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a dropbox with photos/video clips from summer sessions, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have rich YouTube library of past camp videos, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $5,422 , allowing us to support the costs of our fall family virtual camps, including expenses for mailing camp care packages to hundreds of families across Michigan, the Chicago area, and the Great Lakes region.

To share the positive emotional impact our recent virtual summer camps had on 300+ children living with chronic and life-threatening illnesses. A successful highlight video will drive ongoing donor engagement during a critical financial time for our small organization as we head into fall fundraising.

Our mission

Located on 105 beautiful wooded acres in Pinckney, Michigan, and bordered by two lakes, North Star Reach is a no-cost, medically-sound camp where thousands of children who would otherwise be too sick to go to camp can enjoy the experience of a lifetime. Our state-of-the-art health center, The Observatory, includes a fully supplied dispensary and is staffed 24/7 by medical professionals from leading hospitals and medical centers throughout Michigan and Chicago. We are a member of SeriousFun Children's Network, founded by Paul Newman, one of the world's largest family of camps and programs for children with serious illnesses.

Testimonials

At every step of our project, James was exceptional. After an initial handoff and (very brief) project brief, he immediately understood our non-profit organization's brand and strategic objectives. This allowed him to review hours of video footage and distill our narrative down to its essence in a 2-minute video that was spot-on from his first draft. He brought a visual sensibility and level of technical execution beyond what we could have hoped to find, even if we had been paying the top market rate. He's also very kind and was a joy to work with. Any organization would be lucky to have him helping on a project.
