SERVICES
UNIT & LAUNCH PUBLICITY FOR FILM & TELEVISION -- During production, RAS Creative will ensure your creative materials and publicity deliverables are coordinated, managed, and ‘in the can’. During post, we’ll plan your media campaign, and manage the creation of your marketing materials. At premiere time, let us execute your publicity and promotions. From pre-production through to launch, we can do it all. Or we can do some. How much we do is up to you.
DIGITAL MARKETING CAMPAIGNS -- For an interactive digital marketing campaign that supports your film or TV show, RAS Creative will strategize with you to come up with the best ideas, develop the content, produce the tools, and coordinate the builds. No matter what you’re thinking of offering viewers - behind-the-scenes video, program clips, exclusive interviews, photos, games, merchandise, apps - we can make it happen for you.
COMMUNICATIONS FOR SPECIAL EVENTS -- We want to be a key support player on your special event team by managing your event communications, publicity and promotions. We’ll make sure your website is updated and ready to go, your marketing materials are in place, and your social networking is maximized. We can coordinate and produce your event program, newsletters, and information packages for sponsors and delegates. We will also take care of your media releases, media partnerships, advance media requests, and facilitate the media who are onsite attending your event.
MUSIC PUBLICITY -- We love working with musicians! Our services include publicity campaigns for CD releases, tours, festivals, and other special performances. We offer 16+ years of experience in accessing the perfect partners in print, radio, television, and online, and we utilize our own comprehensive media lists of local, national, and international contacts. We also offer a unique ‘DIY Publicity Kit’ for musicians, that prepares you and gives you all the tools you need to take control of your own publicity.
MARKETING & PROMOTIONS -- We're your one-stop shop for creative services like bios, onesheets, electronic press kits, video footage, website content, and social media. Would you like to arrange a special contest? Looking to secure media partners? Need to get your message out to a particular audience? Let us know what you need, and we'll put together a strategy, timeline and budget for making it all happen.
MEDIA RELATIONS -- It may be called media relations, but it’s really about media relationships. That’s why we’ve spent 16+ years getting to know our media contacts professionally and personally. Utilizing our own specially developed databases, we’ll write and distribute media releases, fully execute publicity campaigns, and plan media events. We’ll manage press conferences, arrange media tours, and create media kits. We’ll build your profile, launch your product or service, and establish you as the expert in your field.
NATIONAL MEDIA DATABASE -- Want to manage your own publicity, but don't have the time to create a media list? We'll draw from our database of national media contacts to provide you with your own customized media list. We maintain extensive data for television, radio and newspapers within Canada, which is constantly being updated with current information including names, titles, email addresses, and phone and fax numbers. We also maintain US media lists, and can research and develop media lists for any other locale in the world. Just tell us where, and we'll make a list for you.
MEDIA TRAINING -- Does your company need a spokesperson? Would you like to brush up on interviewing techniques? Do you wish you were more comfortable in media situations? We’ll help you learn what you need to, so you’ll deliver the best message every time. We can specialize in business communications, and offer a number of other customized training topics.
BOOK LAUNCHES -- Whether you're a self-published author, or represented by a publisher, we can help plan and execute your book launch. From coordinating and managing all the details and logistics of your launch event, to managing photo and video shoots, to planning and undertaking your traditional media and social media campaigns, we'd love the chance to help make your book a success.
CORPORATE & COLLATERAL MATERALS -- If you’re in business, you’ll eventually need materials to present and promote what you do. We'll write your company profile, executive bios and speeches. We’ll produce your presentations, develop employee manuals, and come up with creative copy for your advertorials, newsletters and promo kits. If you need video clips or professional photos, we can take care of that, too. And don’t forget your company website. If you need a new one, or want to update an old one, we'll take that in our hands so you can put your best foot forward.
GOOD OL' FASHIONED WRITING & EDITING -- We love to write! And we can write (and edit) just about anything. From video scripts and treatments, to backgrounders and bios, to feature magazine and newspaper articles, we are passionate about applying the written word to just about any format. Tell us what you need, and get us working for you.
PROJECT MANAGEMENT -- Let’s not forget the myriad of miscellaneous projects like promotional videos, photography shoots, tradeshow displays, or special set-ups for receptions and gatherings. We can manage all of this, and just about anything else you can think of. If you have a unique need and don’t know who to turn to, give us a shot. We thrive on figuring things out!
