Placemaking Videography

Description

This RFP concerns the creation of a high-quality destination video for inclusion within a multi-channel campaign to promote Kent. We are commissioning destination campaigns for the county informed by the workshop findings to raise awareness of the destination as a place to live, work, study, invest or visit as well as support the wider recovery by improving perceptions of our destinations. The campaign will use the unique strengths of the diverse people and places that make up the destination to showcase the attractive lifestyle which would appeal to people whether they're considering Kent as a destination to visit for a week, study for a few years, relocate permanently or move their business to. Big shifts in the way that people work has provided more flexibility, people have had time to consider the quality of life that their local area provides. This means that lifestyle is now one of the key selling points of a destinations looking to attract skilled workers at a time when recruitment is one of the biggest barriers to growth and recovery. This increased interest in local community and wellbeing means that creating a sense of belonging, based on community values and identity is the next evolution of destination marketing. The destination offers a wealth of opportunities, a change of pace, and lifestyle changes; however, above all this must be authentic and meaningful.
