Three programs, three audiences, one EY standard. The goal is that a guest at any of them feels the same program.
Our reading of the brief.
One accountable producer across all three programs. A named showrunner who films, cuts and attends the show. A single template for show flow, stage, graphics and video, refreshed for each region instead of rebuilt. That discipline is what keeps quality steady and cost predictable.
Entrepreneur and program storytelling shot and edited by one creative team, so the films and the live show feel like the same program.
Show calling, staging, audio, lighting, video, teleprompters and run-through, managed by one production team in each city.
Two to three stage concepts per program on a shared system, priced consistently so EY can compare them on design, not on surprises.
Options, priced separately.
We price Option A and Option B separately, and optional services separately, so EY can build the package it wants. We will also recommend a package and show what it saves when programs are bundled. A la carte pricing sits behind it.
Site inspection happens at least four months ahead of each show. We provide CAD drawings, DJ recommendations on request, and podium teleprompters as described in the RFP.
[CONFIRM] crew structure and counts per program before publishing.
| Program | Key dates | What we do |
|---|---|---|
| Southeast | Atlanta filming May 18-19 · Nashville show Jun 24 | Film in Atlanta, edit, site inspection in Nashville at least four months out, run-through, show, strike. |
| East Central | Columbus show Jun 10 | Site inspection, CAD, content build, run-through, show, strike. |
| Florida | Tampa show Jun 19 | Site inspection, CAD, content build, run-through, show, strike. |
Contract target is January 15, 2027. We build the plan so that work begins at signature and the four-month site inspection windows are protected.
[CONFIRM] dependency dates after EY's answers on Nov 16.
Metro Atlanta Chamber annual meeting. Our fourth year.
We run the Chamber's annual meeting on a template we refresh each year. That is the model we are proposing for EY: a proven structure, new each time.
[CONFIRM] two or three video-led awards or gala examples, and reference contacts with permission.
Fees are shown by program and service area, Option A and Option B separately, with optional items priced separately. We list multi-program discounts, team roles and rates, reimbursable estimates, and any in-kind services. Taxes and pass-throughs are identified as the RFP requires. Pricing is valid for 120 days from the submission deadline.
The detailed fee schedule is in the separate file sent with this proposal.
[CONFIRM] named showrunner and team roster before publishing. Proposed leads: events (Anna Helms, Evan Padgett), filming and video (Garret), creative (Julie Braunstein), accounts (David Kmoch).
