Highlights from Recent Projects
Slate and Main collaborated with Emerge Education, an education marketing company, to create videos for marketing purposes. Given that Emerge Education didn't have in-house video capabilities, Slate and Main were tasked with creating a video to tell a story about a culinary institution offering online degrees. A second project involved creating videos to depict the stories of potential students and their motivations for pursuing an MBA at the Concordia University of Chicago. The videos were created with the aim to generate leads, requiring captivating models and scripts. The company spent less than $10,000 on the first project, with the second project amounting to around $30,000. The engagement is ongoing.
In another project, Slate and Main partnered with Richfield Bloomington Credit Union to initiate video marketing for the firm. The company had no prior experience with video marketing and wanted to create a video content library for PR and community outreach. The first video created was about the company's mission and history, featuring a 96-year-old employee. A subsequent project involved the creation of a potential advertisement video, with Slate and Main handling the scripting, casting, and editing. Each video cost around $5,000 to produce, and Richfield Bloomington Credit Union continues to work with Slate and Main.
Slate and Main also worked with a business supplies company to create an explainer video. The aim was to articulate the company's products more effectively. Slate and Main were involved in the original concept creation, scripting, and creative content generation. The explainer video featured animation and a model, with the company investing between $10,000 and $50,000 in the project. The project is currently around 85% complete, with the video shot and rough edits done.
