Contest Brief

Hill Impact is an ethical company that values the creative process but above all we value integrity. We are new to Freelancer so we appreciate your patience as we figure it out. One thing is for certain: we will NOT use stolen material, nor will we tolerate negative comments made toward other contestants. If you engage in negative behavior we will NOT work with you -- period. We are extending the period and want a complete video -- we will NOT accept concepts -- we are looking for something complete (only needing edits).

Hill Impact is a communications (public relations), public affairs and government relations firm located in Washington DC. Our clients are organizations and individuals who want to make an impact in the USA. Below represents the story we want to tell with this video, please feel free to ask questions.

Audience: prospective clients (for use on VIMEO, YouTube & http://hillimpact.com) -- viewers are mostly executives.

Duration: 60 - 120 seconds

Style: animation or video -- music/narration/images.

Below represents an outline; if you have a creative concept that steps away from this outline, we might love it -- we are open to your ideas.

Building political influence, garnering media attention, and protecting ones brand and reputation requires skill, know-how, relationships and the passion to persevere. What worked ten years ago does not work today -- the game has changed yet many organizations are continue to play by the old rules, scratching their head as to why they fail over and over again.

Hill Impact is a modern firm designed in the model of a special forces unit: always ready to respond quickly when the stakes are high and the odds are long. We aren't reacting to change, we are leading it -- developing new tools and techniques to help clients win, defend and make an impact.

A national firm headquartered in Washington DC, Hill Impact recognizes that organizations and leaders are under tremendous pressure to achieve results, with fewer resources. We invested in developing our client-friendly process focused on return on investment:

-- flexible terms and a willingness to take on projects
-- affordable rates achieved by managing our overhead without compromising results
-- we are confident in our ability to deliver -- if you're not happy, you don't pay until you are

Organizations don't have the time or patience to "play politics" or "chase media" leaders demand success against meaningful objectives that contribute to the bottomline through revenue creation, cost-avoidance and impact generation.

Our firm's founder, Dan Hill, regularly provides insights on business, media and politics to ABC, NBC, PBS, the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and Washington Post. The Huffington Post described him as America's most trusted expert on reputation, and when the PR industry's leading publication wanted someone to teach other PR professionals about crisis management, they came to Dan Hill.

Whether it's WINNING a Federal contract, DEFENDING a brand in crisis, or helping a non-profit make an IMPACT, Hill Impact is ready to be a part of your team.

Our clients include multinational corporations, government contractors, US subsidiaries of foreign companies, non-profits, universities and high-profile individuals. They come from Singapore, Silicon Valley, Italy, Brooklyn and points in between.

Add Hill Impact to your team to:
-- develop & implement a winning capture plan for a Federal contract
-- secure state and local government incentives for a new project
-- assess your organization's crisis readiness and train key personnel in crisis response
-- advise your board of directors through a transition or challenge
-- cultivate political support for a key policy issue

In the spirit of the special forces teams we were modeled after, we are ready for our next mission. Let's go.

I understand you don't want to rank partial videos however, are you open to guiding style on partial videos. We'd love to participate but as a matter of standard design process it would be highly unusual to design the entire video from start to finish without the client getting involved. The outcome will be far better from a client willing to offer feedback.

  That's fine. I am ok with that. All I am saying is that we won't accept something that is just a concept. We are happy to have a dialogue at any point.

  We didn't specify because we didn't want to limit the creativity. We were thinking animation but the use of real video intrigues us.
