Jack Link's products are an excellent source of on-the-go protein, making them the perfect snack for at home, at work, in the gym, on a hike – wherever life may take you.
Using still images for the settings and crisp product and packaging shots of specific products, Jack Link's is turning to the Tongal community to create a suite of 8 :30-second videos (each with a :15 cutdown). These videos will live on Jacklinks.com, Amazon, Walmart.com, and other online retailers, as well as on Jack Link's social channels.
Each of your :30 videos should focus on a specific Jack Link's product, sharing a few key messages around each product as well as crisp, clear imagery of the product and packaging.
In terms of style and tone, this Kind Bar video is a good template: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003TNANSO/ (click the image on the lower left with the video play button icon to view). But instead of plain colored backgrounds, we'd like to see you incorporate the products into stills of everyday, active lifestyles: a purse, a gym bag, a kitchen counter, a backpack.
Read on to the Project Objectives for more info on each specific product.
The goal of this project is to create a suite of 8 :30-second videos, each with a :15 cutdown, that highlight the benefits of specific Jack Link's products for Jacklinks.com, Amazon, Walmart.com, other online retailers, and Jack Link's social channels.
Each video should be on a different product and should highlight that the products are savory and will help you power through/provide the energy you need (with the exception of Video #7, Smoked Sausages). Each of your videos should convey that Jack Link's products are a healthy-ish snack option and are portable, a good source of protein, and perfect for home, work, or at the gym or outdoor activities.
Visually, you should show the products into stills of everyday, active lifestyles: a purse, a gym bag, a kitchen counter, a backpack. The Pitch winner will shoot/source these background images. Jack Link's will provide digital assets of the product packaging for you to incorporate into your stills.
You'll also see that Video #8 differs slightly from the rest as it features products in the Lorissa's Kitchen line, which has different messaging and a different demographic than the Jack Link's brand products featured in the other 7 videos.
Below you'll find key information for each of your videos, including the core marketing message (in blue). Supportive messaging that should be used as on-screen text in your videos can be found in the "Video Suite Marketing Messages" PDF in the Assets tab. Be sure to read all information in the brief and the attached PDF carefully.
Production must take place in the US as Jack Link's cannot ship actual jerky product out of the country.

Video #3: Steak Bars
Until now, you can basically sum up the entire 'bar' category like this: Taste, Protein, Healthy Ingredients: Pick Two. Leave it to Jack Link's and it's 100% beefy awesomeness to come along and introduce the trifecta. Taste, Protein, Real Food: Pick. All. Three. And toss in low calories while you're at it.

Video #7: Smoked Sausages
Naturally Hardwood Smoked. Filled with flavor
Video #8: Lorissa's Kitchen
Your Lorissa's Kitchen video should be slightly different from the other seven. For Lorissa's Kitchen, you should showcase multiple products over static lifestyle shots at work, on-the-go, in the lunchbox, and during family activities, like walking, carpooling, kids' activities, etc. Be sure to read the specific product information that should form the basis of your on-screen text for each product in the attached PDF (in the Assets tab).
Your Lorissa's Kitchen video should be informational and should highlight that Lorissa's Kitchen products are delicious and will help sustain you throughout your day.
We'd like you to feature the entire Lorissa's Kitchen line, itemized in the Product List doc in the Assets tab. Ideally we'd like to see you feature each individual product for 2-3 seconds in a still of a corresponding environment (work desk, kitchen counter, purse, gym bag, lunchbox, car cupholder, backpack) with the universal claims called out in text across the entire video.
This video will live on Amazon, Walmart.com, other online retailers, and Lorissa's Kitchen social channels.
