Storyvine

Other, Video

Storyvine is a video production technology platform that guides anyone to tell a specific story, like Constituent Stories, Video Calls-to-Action and Candidate Updates, using their phone. The video they film is uploaded securely and sent to Storyvine’s Rendering Engine which automagically edits it with our client’s pre-approved designs. Roughly five minutes later, the final video is created!

Once created, you have control of your videos and can manage them in the Storyvine CMS.

Compared To

Videolicious – but you can’t ask specific questions with this. SundaySky – But without people in their videos There are a dozen or so more that require you to edit the videos afterward.

Meant for

Field Organizers and volunteers to film others or themselves and Campaign Managers/Communications teams to manage the program via the Storyvine Admin Website

Problem it Solves

  • Speed – Video production takes weeks and is expensive, with Storyvine, you get a professionally edited video within 5-10 minutes after filming.
  • Supervision – We’re not a consumer app, like Instagram, we’re designed for organizations that want to ask specific questions to a specific set of people.
  • Scale – we can produce large amounts of videos, easily and from anywhere, even rural areas.

Use Case

Use Storyvine for any type of replicable video communications like Constituent Stories, Calls-to-Action, Candidate Updates, Issues, Fundraising, etc. etc.

Biggest Drawback

In the ‘olden timey days’, you would hire a video production team, pay a small fortune and then they did ALL the work for you, filming, makeup, set up, etc. Storyvine is a cheaper solution, but you’ll need to think about four strategic phases: Create, Capture, Curate and Connect

  • Create: What is the look and feel of the video and what questions do you need to ask?
  • Capture: Who is filming whom? How do you get them to be on film?
  • Curate: What’s the criteria of approving or not approving all these videos? Who is watching them?
  • Connect: Where do the videos go once you’ve made them? Who is watching them? How do you loop this back to Capture to get more people to film?

Republicans have spent decades cultivating talent and investing for the long run, and right now we’re paying the price. Republicans control 30 state legislatures, 28 governors mansions, and are just a few seats away from regaining control of Congress. Together with an activist Supreme Court, they’re enacting policies that turn back progress on everything from abortion to voting rights to climate change.
