Friday June 22, 2012 12:00pm - 1:30pm @ World Resources Institute (10 G St NE, Suite 800, Washington, DC 20002)
Most nonprofit organizations are making use of video as a communications tool, but not as many consider their long-term objectives with video. In a quickly evolving media landscape, a video communications strategy must include short- and long-term planning, audience identification and segmentation, and distribution strategies in order to get your organization's message to the right audiences. Join our panel as we explore best practices in the planning, creation and distribution of nonprofit video.
Lunch sandwiches will be provided by the organizer for the first 40 attendees who preregister online and bring their Eventbrite confirmation to the event.
Our panel will address the following topics:
How to use video as part of a larger communications campaign,
How to determine your audiences and the key issues that matter to them,
The benefits of establishing a long-term relationship with a videographer/editor and animator,
How to create a media file library,
How to allocate resources to use video as part of a long-term communications strategy,
How to create videos with "legs" (that will be picked up by other news sites, blogs, etc).
How to distribute video so as to build your audience,
How infographics and animation can add to your story,
...and more!
Panelists:
Kristen Milhollin (Moderator) - Co-Founder, The Goodspeaks Project
Ben Connors - Media Innovator and Visual Journalist
Will Carroll - Creative Director and Principal, Geoill; Organizer, DC Animation Group
Diane Sherman - Founder and Principal, Dianne Sherman Communications
