2019 Race for the Rescues - with Jami
Film Concept
Videographie
This is a documentary film about the ‘sweaty’ joy of participating at ‘The Race for the Rescues”.
Emotional Impact
The video establishes trust and the viewers feel encouraged to participate or donate to the event.
Implementation
Establish trust: Getting to know and connecting with a real person involved with the race (Jami guiding viewers through the event using the interview)
Encourage to participate: Showing some establishing shots of the effort going into the race, then the large crowd, the activities - and how much fun it is to be there (A lot of close-ups of laughing people and animals)
and to donate: Showing success via empty truck and Jami voice-over - before the Call to Action text panel.
