Create a docu-style video profile of Miami Heat NBA player Duncan Robinson featuring products from Orgain.

Playing for the Miami Heat, Duncan Robinson is no stranger to being under pressure. When your job is to score as many points as possible, you want to make sure your body is functioning at its best - and that starts from the inside with clean nutrition. After discovering Orgain Clean Protein Shakes at the recommendation of his trainer, Duncan hasn't looked back and has been using Orgain products consistently after last season and through his break before the new NBA season started again this year.

Now, working with Tongal, Orgain is looking to capture Duncan's story as a short docu-style video, and show how Orgain plays an important role in his daily routine. Whether he's at the gym training, working on his podcast, or volunteering at Feeding South Florida, Duncan is a man on the go. You'll have one day to film with Duncan around his home in Miami, Florida, but will have the opportunity to connect with him virtually beforehand. You will not need to account for his fees in your budget. As the filming window is dependent on if the Miami Heat make the playoffs and how well they do in the playoffs, there will be at least a 2 week lead time before the production window where you and your crew can quarantine.

If you're looking to play ball, then please see below for additional details. For any questions or other project updates, check out the Project Forum.

DELIVERABLES: There are 16 total assets.

• One :60-:90 hero video (16x9, 1x1, 9x16, 4x5)
• One :30 cutdown (16x9, 1x1, 9x16, 4x5)

• One additional deliverable up to :60 (16x9, 1x1, 9x16, 4x5) that could be a recipe video or training tips video

TIMELINE:

• The filming window is dependent on whether or not the Miami Heat will make it to the NBA playoffs and how well they do in the playoffs. You will have at least a 2-week lead time before the production window so that you could lock in your crew and have them quarantine prior to the shoot.
• For the project timeline up to the end of pre-production please see the Assets section. 

EXPOSURE: Orgain.com, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook. For social please see our platform best practices page.

TARGET AUDIENCE: 

• Late 20s–mid 40s "Health Prioritizers," who are intentional about food. They eat minimally processed, organic when possible, plant-based, low sugar, no carb. It's an "Eat the rainbow" approach to food, with a focus on fresh, high-quality ingredients
• People with Active lifestyles: parents, athletes, hard workers, curious; they prioritize their health and wellness no matter how busy they are.
  • They see healthy food and clean eating as a way to enrich their lives, rather than serve as a detractor.
  • They "shop the margins" of the supermarket (rather than the center aisles) and don't see eating clean as a handicap but as an enjoyable key factor in a rich, rewarding life.
  • They prioritize active, healthy lifestyles, and know that Orgain products support their goals with nutrition that is clean and convenient.

TONE: Authentic, credible, inspiring 

EXECUTIONAL MANDATORIES:

• You will need to account for your crew travel & accommodations in your budget as well as locations.
• You will need to provide your COVID protocols as part of your pitch submission requirements. 
• You must provide negative test results for each crew member 24 hours prior to your shoot, regardless of their vaccination status. Strict COVID safety protocols will be of paramount consideration, including mandatory mask usage, and crew sizes should be kept to a minimum, with designated backups in the event of a positive test. Some quarantine measures are recommended in the days leading up to your shoot to reduce crew exposure. Please be as specific as possible when submitting a COVID safety plan with your pitch.
• When filming with Duncan, please do not show Miami Heat branding and other IP.

OPEN BID: 

• This is an open bid project, so you will get to set your own budget proposal up to $20,000. COVID testing, strict safety protocols, and pre-shoot crew quarantine should be accounted for in your budget. The Sponsor is interested in seeing tiered pricing options, so 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.

Shooting live action or stop motion? Our priority is ensuring everyone's safety, and we're now requiring a COVID safety protocol plan for all relevant productions. 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 you should ensure your submission is executable within the anticipated timeline and budget, while also ensuring everyone's safety.
