Video Production for Nonprofit 50th Anniversary Dinner
Background and Challenge
The National Native American Bar Association (NNABA), led by Makalika Nāholowaʻa, faced a significant challenge when they decided last minute to collect video footage for prerecorded segments to be played at their 50th anniversary dinner. With very limited time and budget, the organization needed a reliable and efficient partner who could quickly understand their requirements and deliver a polished product.
Overview
- Project Name : NNABA 50th Anniversary Videos
- Client : NNABA
- Category: Event Media
- Sub-Category : Virtual Interviews
Solution and Execution
In this critical situation, NNABA reached out to JSB Video. Despite the short notice and tight budget, Jordan and the team activated quickly, demonstrating exceptional organizational skills and adaptability. JSB Video took the time to understand NNABA’s needs and worked closely with their people to ensure that the video segments were aligned with the organization’s goals and vision.
JSB Video proposed a cost-effective approach that involved conducting several remote interviews with Native American lawyers from across the country. This method not only helped to work within the tight budget but also allowed for the inclusion of participants who might not have been able to join otherwise. The interviews were conducted using special software that records high-quality audio and video from virtual calls, surpassing the quality of typical platforms like Zoom or Google Meet. The project involved navigating sensitive topics with care and respect. JSB Video made it a priority to educate the team on cultural sensitivities, ensuring that the interviews were conducted thoughtfully and respectfully. This commitment to cultural awareness was crucial in building trust and delivering an authentic product. The overall process included planning, filming, and editing the prerecorded segments within a very tight timeframe. JSB Video maintained clear and consistent communication throughout, ensuring all elements were coordinated smoothly and effectively. Our commitment to staying on budget without compromising on quality was crucial in delivering the desired results.

Client Feedback
" My nonprofit made a last minute decision to attempt collecting video footage for prerecorded segments to be played at a 50th anniversary dinner. When we got the idea, time was so short and budget was so limited we didn't think it was practically going to be possible. I reached out to Jordan, and he activated fast, was organized, stayed on budget, and did a great job working with our people and producing a polished product. Couldn't imagine a better experience for someone tapped with so little prior knowledge about our org, with so little time, and such limited budget. Miracle worker. So grateful."
