Halloween Party/Fundraiser

What is the project supposed to achieve?

It’s going to raise funds, promote morale, and help us become closer as a group. Also, it’s a way to start showcasing films, music, and our beautiful personalities in order to draw more people to Visions film festival and conference.

Are the results straight-forward?

I think the results are straight-forward for the most part; however, there’s a lot of extra rewards in this project. It’s a great way of networking as well as helping out local industries (Black Sheep Tavern) and promoting local talent (filmmakers and DJ).

Are deliverables easily measured?

As far as money goes, yes. We’ll be able to see the results by the end of the night. You can also see the contacts you’ve made. But there will be things that aren’t going to be as easy to measure such as how everyone reacted to the party and how far the publicity of the films that will be shown will really go.

How much effort is required?

This project needs quite a lot of effort. There’s the initial setting up process, preparation, making sure we have the equipment, the advertising side of this is HUGE, and then execution. We don’t want this to look thrown together, sloppy, or amateur. Everything that we do should be a direct example of how and what we want the actual festival and conference to be represented.

How many people or skills are needed?

There are quite a lot of skills needed to make this come together. We’ve used my contacts and connections to make sure we have a venue, but on top of that, we need a graphics person (Kyle) for awesome advertisement, staff (Steven) to bounce and promote outside the bar, equipment person to run the films, a DJ (Quinn), and everyone needs to be continually promoting and pushing people to come and party.

How complex is the project?

The project it self is really not complex. It’s a party/fundraiser. We’ll have a great time. Even if some things go wrong, I have enough faith in our staff to be able to fix things and move on. I think that it’s going to be fine…aka…AWESOME.
