EXECUTIONAL MANDATORIES: 

  • You must film in Los Angeles. 
  • While you do not need to have prior food content experience to be considered for this project, it will be a plus.
  • You do not need to have a food stylist as part of your team but it is recommended.


OPEN BID: 

  • This is an open bid project, so you will get to set your own budget proposal up to $20,000. The Sponsor is interested in seeing tiered pricing options, so please feel free to submit various versions of your pitch at budget, target, and reach price points within that price range.
  • By participating in this open bid project, creators acknowledge that the Sponsor is under no obligation to greenlight a bid. Though most open bid projects on our platform do move forward with a greenlit bid, we will notify you in the event the Sponsor decides not to fund any bids via the project forum. Regardless of the result, all open bid submissions will be reviewed and evaluated by the Sponsor and the project team.


Our priority is ensuring everyone's safety, so if you're shooting any live-action, please review our COVID-19 Production Safety Guide and check federal, state, and local rules before and during your shoot to make sure your on-set protocols are up to date. We’re working hard to keep people working during this extraordinary time, and our advice here is to make sure your submission is executable within the anticipated timeline, while also ensuring everyone's safety.

Orgain was created by Andrew Abraham, M.D. - cancer survivor, medical physician, and food entrepreneur. Their relentless passion to raise the standard through better nutrition is based on the belief that real foods have the power to make a real difference in people’s lives. That includes hand-selecting high-quality ingredients to maximize nutrition, making everything as delicious as it is clean, and creating options that are accessible and inclusive to more people. Simply put, Orgain is on a mission to help more people live vibrant lives through the power of good, clean, nutrition.

  • Taste the Difference: Content that creates a visceral flavor experience.
  • Orgain’s Passion: Sharing Orgain’s energy and enthusiasm for clean nutrition and the role it has for helping transform lives.
  • Real, Clean Living: Showcasing real ways that people have made clean nutrition part of their lives.


Orgain's Brand Identity (look and feel):

  •  Vibrant. Sharp. Relevant. Credible.
