It's a question I ask myself regularly. When the answer isn't, "ten
feet tall and bullet proof" I start to get twitchy and go for a soda.
We're putting the call out for Manitoba companies that have amazing new
media work and/or great-big-balls-out success stories you feel should
be profiled to potential partners around the world.
Starting later this July we will shoot videos of Manitoba New Media
companies for broadcast locally and to international partners. These
are going to be 4-minute profiles of Manitoba digital companies that
have achieved incredible business accolades or have amazing stories to
tell. For example; maybe you booked a meeting with Donald Trump and
sold him on the idea of building a "Trump" hotel website (true Manitoba
story). Or maybe you won an Emmy Award for the motion graphics and
animation you completed on the Hollywood Superbowl (another true
Manitoba story).
Whatever it is you do, we want to hear why you're so special, and you may just be one of the companies we choose to profile in our Manitoba New Media Showcase.
So how much does it cost you?
Well, if you were to book a production team to shoot, edit, and graphic
this profile, it would cost anywhere from $6,000 - $8,000. But if you are chosen by one of our magical little elves it
will cost you absolutely nothing AND your company profile will be marketed and shown to people around the world.
So what's this kind of publicity worth to you?
Now's the time to let it all hang out. Now's the time to hang up your humble suit. NOW is the time to share your story.
Take a few minutes and tell us:
1. What does your Manitoba-based new media company do?
2. What makes you so special?
3. Why do you run your business in Manitoba?
4. Contact Info, Website, Samples and Links.
The deadline to submit this information is Wednesday, July 15, 2009.
We will then collaborate and pick the profiles we think have the
dandiest work and stories to tell and begin shooting your profile later
this month.
Your submission doesn't need to be longer that a few paragraphs in length.
Unfortunately we only have the budget to shoot approximately 8 Manitoba
Profiles. The expense to professionally produce, shoot, and edit 8
segments is quite high which limits the amount of companies we can
feature. We are looking for the most sincere new media companies (big
or small) that can represent Manitoba on an International stage.
Should you be selected, you will receive copies of the final profile,
massive fame and glory, and bragging rights that you are truly
'all-that-and-a-bag-of-old-dutch-chips.'

We look forward to seeing your work!
