Filmmaker needed to capture a family’s story for future fundraising appeals
We have been approached by a family who are passionate about the impact our support has had on them. They want to help promote our service to funders so that we can support more families the way we have helped them.
We want to create a short film with this family (no more than 5 minutes) that we can use on social media, on our website, at events, and directly with funders. We are looking for a volunteer who can position this family's story for maximum impact while ensuring that the key message is empowering and strengths-based.
The skills we are looking for in a volunteer are:
- filmmaking and editing
- storytelling
- empathy
We would like the filmmaker to first meet with the family to build trust and rapport. We will then meet again to storyboard, developing key themes for the film. Filming would take place in the family home, and a rough edit would then be shared with the family for us to agree on a final cut together.
Advice about the final release of the film for maximum impact would also be much appreciated to maximise potential fundraising and generate further support for our charity (e.g., through volunteering).
