BENGAY® enables, champions, and rewards movement. From moving with attitude, to moving with purpose, to moving in heroic ways… like our country’s great Veterans. They push their bodies to the limit, which is why BENGAY® wants to honor America’s Veterans by celebrating the amazing feats they have accomplished.
Working with Team Red White and Blue, a non-profit that seeks to keep Veterans healthy and active, post-service, BENGAY® is helping kick off the first annual Old Glory Coast to Coast Relay (OGCTCR) across the country to highlight all the great work Veterans have done and continue to do.
BENGAY® knows that not everyone can be a part of the relay, which is why they're encouraging anyone who wants to support veterans to get involved virtually by sharing their own movements through Charity Miles, an app that tracks your your daily walk or run. So every time you exercise, BENGAY® will make a donation in support of Team Red White and Blue on your behalf.
It’s simple: “when you move, BENGAY® gives.”
The goal of this project is to create a 30-60 second authentic and heartfelt video that inspires people to join the Old Glory Coast to Coast Relay Race virtually by sharing their own physical activity online at CharityMiles.org.
The Video should also show how BENGAY® celebrates the amazing things people do when they get moving, especially Veterans and inspire viewers to see BENGAY® as a culturally relevant brand.
--Key Marketing Messages:
--Target Audience: Anyone who knows a Veteran.
--Executional Mandatories: If showing a product, please use BENGAY® Ultra Strength Cream.
--Tone: Inspiring, culturally relevant, heartfelt, authentic.

This Project will be worth a total of $15,000 and consists of 3 Phases: an Idea Phase, a Pitch Phase and a Video Phase. Be sure to read the following information carefully as well as the Official Rules.
PHASE 1: IDEA – Tell us your Idea for the BENGAY® Veterans Movement Video in 140 characters or less. Remember, an Idea (What is an Idea Phase?) is not a detailed script; it is a spark of inspiration, or a distillation of what will happen in the Video. As always, Ideas should be clever and engaging. The winning Idea creators will receive $250 each and a 5% one-time residual payment for any winning Videos based on their Idea. (That means if your winning Idea is the basis for the 1st place Video, you will receive $450 – see Video Phase Payout details for more information.
PHASE 2: PITCH - Submit your Pitch (What Is a Pitch Phase?) convincing the Sponsor why you should be selected to execute a Video based on one of the winning Ideas from the previous Phase using:
The most compelling Pitch will be selected and, upon submitting the Winner’s Affidavit and the IP Assignment, will receive $5,000 to help create the Video. Additionally, upon submitting a Video that satisfies the criteria laid out in your winning Pitch, the Pitch winner will also be GUARANTEED a winning place in the subsequent Video Phase. So, if your Pitch is selected and you execute your Pitch effectively in your Video submission, you will win an additional $9,000(subject to deduction for one-time 5% residual payment to an eligible Idea winner). For an example of an effective Pitch, check out Erik Beck’s winning “3 Artists & 5,000 LEGOs” Pitch video. All Pitches will remain private until after the winner of the Video Phase is announced and the Project is complete.
PHASE 3: VIDEO – The 1 winner from the Pitch Phase will create a 30-60 Video based upon their winning Pitch.
--Video Phase Payout: The winners of the Video Phase will earn the following prizes: 1st place $9,000 (less any 5% one-time residual payments paid to the Idea winner, as applicable).
