Videographers Needed: Highlighting Agri-Ready Designated Counties
Missouri Farmers Care (MFC) is a joint effort by Missouri’s farming and agriculture community to stand together for the men and women who provide the food and jobs on which our communities depend.
A program of MFC, Agri-Ready County Designation promotes counties that support Missouri farmers, agricultural literacy and Missouri’s economic interests in agriculture. MFC Agri-Ready County Designation connects counties with MFC to encourage and protect agriculture and secure it as a thriving component in our state’s economic future. With Agri-Ready status, MFC members work with county leadership to promote agricultural economic development. More information can be found at: https://mofarmerscare.com/agri-ready/.
Project request:
MFC is offering counties videos highlighting their unique strengths. MFC is inviting videographers to submit proposals for the creation of 2–3-minute videos highlighting Agri-Ready Designated Counties. The goal is to feature the counties economic strengths and assets in agriculture and as a great place to live, work and do business. These videos will equip
the designated county with a marketing tool set to showcase agricultural opportunities and will be showcased on social media, county websites and internal meetings.
Each 2-3 minute video will focus on a county and include:
- Voiceover content creation and the capture of cinematic b-roll, each pertaining to the goals established within the pre-production phase
- Creation of introduction and closing graphics
- Voiceover talent
An example of this type of film can be viewed HERE. (https://www.dropbox.com/s/wo95f1lrw8dr89m/Audrain%20County_Sizzle%20Film_FINAL.mp4?dl=0)
Once a contract has been finalized, the MFC staff will virtually convene local leaders and the videographer to have a conversation about the messages and features that are important to them to be included – the videos will be built around those key messages.
Timeline:
Proposals are due by March 3, 2022 and will be reviewed within two weeks of submission. After finalized, we will convene the local conversation within the following month.
