Kian Kaul works in marketing and Ive been chatting with him about marketing packages.
I think he might be able to make:
-a corporate video, something that could go on the front page, and in other places.
-a series of integrated ads, with a theme, 15 to 30 second clips, maybe some designs for shirts and things like that.
-an electronic press kit, that the press can take clips and segments from.
Im convinced that the art team can handle all of this, but that we will want to get some high quality stuff like this made for a price so we have at least that bare minimum. Directing the art team to do it for close to free may not yield the kind of results we need, and it may take an indefinite amount of time to get it to happen. He says he thinks he can do it for less than $1,500.
I linked him to our archive of potential clips at http://youtube.com/immortalityorg he can choose there and we can get him the sources. Of course, they arent all high quality, but some of them are, like the Imminst film for example. I told him about our current slogans and mission statements, blight of involuntary death, and unlimited lifespans, and linked him to a topic where people have been brainstorming on slogans a bit.
You guys might want to include any ideas that you think are particularily good in the art team. The slogan topic is in there, and if you have any particular ad ideas you want him to consider then post them there proceeded by the word "Suggestion:" like the others there and he'll find them, and or Ill direct him to them. I suggested some vanilla type of ads, and some spicier types. He's going to draw up a rough outline of what he could do with all of this and then Ill post it here or have him post it here. We can adjust it if necessary from there, and see if we can get this proposal passed.
