Creation and Production of Donor/Sponsor Commercial and Video Clips

Purpose:   

1. Create a short, high definition video (~ 2 min) to help potential AAUW Redlands donors and event sponsors better understand and emotionally engage with our mission and outcomes, with the goal of motivating increased donations. 
2. Edit short audio/video clips (3 – 10 sec each) from gathered scholarship recipient video footage and audio testimonials that can be included in AAUW Redlands' social media posts. 

Potential Scope: 

• Script, edit, and produce a concise, impactful short video commercial that motivates community donations, in alignment with AAUW Redlands branding and using graphics, captions, etc. where appropriate to convey an inspiring message 
• Through discussions with key AAUW Redlands leaders, gain a solid understanding of our mission and the scholarship opportunities that deploy this mission into our local community 
• Interview/film scholarship recipients to create a compelling story of why donors should invest in AAUW Redlands 
• Attend two STEM Conferences to source footage and testimonials of attendees’ experiences and how participation may impact their future (Thursday, Jan 8 and Wednesday, Feb 25, 2026; approximately 9:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. per event) 
• Interview/film past Tech Trek attendees to source personal testimonials of how participation has motivated personal excellence. Confirm approval to use footage/audio from <18 yr old scholars. 
• AAUW Redlands does not have software nor technology available to support this endeavor, therefore student can use their own preferred and accessible resources to complete the project.
