Hey {{first_name}},

Thank you for contacting us and considering Your company name for your video
production.
As we discussed during our meeting, your objective is very simple:

GET THE CUSTOMERS BACK TO YOUR HOTEL.


This video will be a way of letting them know about all the upgrades and how beautiful the place looks now.

{{company_name}} is looking for a video to promote the upgrades hotel made in the last 18 months. Our main goal will be to make sure the end product really demonstrates the quality of a venue.

The way we will do it is by highlighting certain elements of the hotel that people commonly associate with quality.

The video will be promoted on YouTube as well as Facebook video to give it the exposure it needs.

Keep reading to see how we can help you!

THE SHOOT

Different shots

What makes a video look interesting is a variety of shots and frames. It is crucial to take the right shot, at the right moment.

To make them look appealing and professional, we will use a range of various equipment, and by the end of a video, we will make sure to capture all those magical moments.

At our disposal, we will have a crane for long sweeping shots and a steady-cam for creating smooth movements.

The day

Our goal is to capture everything we need in one day. On the day of the filming, we will need to pinpoint things that need a prior arrangement. Things like shots of food, maids making up beds, and certain staff performing actions we will agree on.

These are one of the many things we will discuss at the pre-production meeting.

THE EDIT

Editing

Our job is to ensure that all the shots we took look as high quality as possible. The edit will allow us to arrange the moments we have captured to take the viewer on the most engaging journey possible.

Different versions of the video

The purpose of your video is to get as many people watching it as possible. 

When we export your video for Facebook, we will use a slightly different beginning because of the way Facebook shows the videos in the news feed. 

We will also create five mini 20-30 second videos for you to use in your various social media channels when talking about specific parts of your hotel.

Tell your story through video

THE MARKETING

Call to action

Everything that goes online for marketing purposes needs a call-to-action. Call-to-action buttons are strategically placed with simple instructions to the reader or viewer telling them what to do next if they are interested.

Your videos will be no different

A relevant call to action will be displayed at the end of each version of your video, depending on the platform it will publish on.

YouTube

On YouTube, we will use their advertising program to push your video in front of people meeting certain marketing criteria.

We will ensure that all "video SEO" is done on your project, making sure it is tagged correctly to maximize the number of visitors from potential customers.

Facebook

We will be using Facebook Ads to push your video and a link to your website to all the people who meet certain interests.

Those interests could be as follows: "anyone who is in your local area who 'liked' Hilton Hotels and other typically upmarket hotels". Perhaps you would also target people who read certain magazines, fly with certain airlines, or any other interest that dictates the kind of spending they do.

As mentioned before, we will graphically have a slightly different call to action at the end because the link will be placed differently on Facebook.

CASE STUDY 

Problem

ABC Country Club recently remodeled almost their entire club which resulted in all their previous marketing materials becoming irrelevant.

Proposed Solution

We suggested making one main video for their website and mini videos for social media, to highlight new features of the Club.

We met with the owners for a pre-production meeting and suggested various shots which they brilliantly made happen.

Results

Comments coming back from members of the club about the new video were extremely positive, but what was surprising was how much the video got shared on social media.

The owner contacted a few members to find out how come it got shared that much.

They said that they always recommend the club to their friends and acquaintances, but it was hard to describe it without having a video you can show and say "here, look at this". Now with the existing video, it was made possible.

Here is what one of the owners had to say:

"The video was absolutely amazing.
We are all amazed by the results."

- Janet Smith, Co-Owner -

YOUR INVESTMENT

Strategy

Our pricing follows the industry standard of day-rates as a basis but we issue you a fixed quote.

Payment plan

50% is required to book your slot in advance.

The client will obtain and maintain insurance coverage concerning Agency/Client job(s) at no cost to Producer and name Producer and Director as a “named insured” on said policies before the commencement of preproduction.

14. CONTINGENCY AND WEATHER DAYS

14.1. A contingency day is any day where a scheduled media/film shooting has been prevented from occurring due to circumstances beyond the control of the production company.

(2) Injury, illness, or absence of client-supplied elements (e.g. key talent, color correct products).

(3) “Force majeure” (meaning but not limited to, earthquake, riot, fire, flood, volcanic eruption, acts of war, strikes, labor unrests, civil authority, terrorism, and acts of God).

(4) “Client Insured Re-Shoots” (any additional days for a job insured by the Client, who is therefore authorizing the expenditure). The Client should be provided with a contingency day cost which should be approved before proceeding with that shoot day.

14.3. The Production Company recognizes its obligation to minimize contingency day liabilities and will apply accepted industry cancellation practices.

14.4. The Production Company will quote the maximum exposure figure (a “not to exceed” figure) as a contingency day cost. This will be a cost per day figure. However, this figure does not include the cost of premiums for crew or suppliers (i.e., should the contingency day fall on weekends, holidays, or premium days based on consecutive employment).

15. CANCELLATION AND POSTPONEMENT

A cancellation or postponement is defined as a rescheduling of the production to a later specific date caused or directed by the Client or total cancellation of the project.

If the Production Company blocks out a specific period of time with the agreement that it represents a firm commitment from the Client, then the Production Company makes no further efforts to sell the time.

20. NO WAIVER

Failure of any party to this Agreement to exercise any rights shall not constitute a waiver of those rights.

21. ENFORCEABILITY
