Freas, City Clerk City of Kenai A/0� 7�� DATE: June 30, 1994 RE: RFP FOR COLOR VIDEO June 29, 1994 was the last day to submit an RFP for color video. Seventeen specification packets were sent out. Seven proposals were submitted. When council directed me to advertise for the RFP (during the June 1, 1994 council meeting), you stated filming should be done by the end of July and early August. In order to have the work done in that time frame, it seems the proposals should be reviewed and a contract be awarded at the July 20, 1994 council meeting. Do all members of the Council wish to review all the videos? If so, should a work session be scheduled to review them? {Council chambers will be available July 11 (hold Harbor Commission meeting upstairs), 12, 14, and 15. Chambers would also be available on July 18 and 19, however a resolution would then have to be carried in to your meeting of July 20.1 or, appoint a committee of the council to review all the videos? That committee could then make recommendation to the full Council of two or three videos to review. The full Council could then choose from those two or three recommended. NOTE: Mayor Williams has suggested a work session be scheduled for all members to be able to review all the videos. In addition, the work session agenda would include discussion of general concerns.

Freas City Clerk DATED: July 71 1994 A PROPOSAL FOR THE CITY OF KENAI "Village with a Past, City with a Future" submitted by Taylor Productions 3740 Winterset Drive Anchorage Alaska 99508 907562-3199 907-563-3108 - fax Carol Freas, City Clerk City of Kenai 210 Fidalgo Suite 200 Kenai, Alaska 99611-7794 June 28,1994 Dear Nis. Freas: It is people who make a city and Kenai is defined by her citizens. No dream is too big for the residents of Kenai. Inspired by the mighty king salmon who migrate back to the Kenai River and Lake each Summer, hooking the big one has become a state of mind in Kenai. It's no wonder it's the "Oil Capital of Alaska," an "All America City," "Second oldest Russian settlement in the new world," and was called the "grocery store" by the Kenaitze Indians who lived well for thousands of years on its wealth of fish and wildlife. It is clear Kenai possesses three significant assets: her people's generous spirit, the wealth and bounty of its' wilderness setting, and important natural resources. Kenai is eager to embrace individuals, families and businesses who want to come and help them build their city, already an important oil center, airway hub and major recreation area The strength of all of these elements will be portrayed in our film of Kenai. One sample of our work, entitled "Footprints" that you will be viewing was just completed this year for the Kenaitze Indian Tribe and the US Forest Service. It was a real treat to work with people such as Sasha Lindgren, Claire Swan, and the US Forest Service people. It was also a wonderful experience capturing the beauty of the Kenai River for this film. We hope we will be able to repeat this experience and produce your film on the city of Kenai. We would love to come back. If we are given the contract we will be working with Kathy Tarr from the K Company, an old friend and colleague who now resides in Kenai. Please call if you have any questions or need any more information. Best of luck on your project Sincerely, Francine Taylor T1 SEA TMENT Opening- Busy, energetic people of Kenai, families and individuals playing and working, all to the rhythm of appropriate, upbeat music. With a subtle music change we see these shots intercut with serene shots of the wilderness, right out their windows and backdoors. Throughout the program, we will show the beauty of the area even as we show downtown and Kenai's major industries. This is the key to Kenai life- the luxury of the natural world just steps out your back door. Next, we'll locate Kenai geographically on a map, and transition to aerials showing the community embraced by forest, the mighty Kenai River and it's headwaters Kenai Lake. We hear music that reminds us of covered wagons moving westward with Kenai compared to the America of our past We see played out one more time a young community carving out their homes in a wilderness. With one important advantage- this community has enormous resources and almost infinite possibility. We can feel the people's hope as they look to the future. We hear light industrial music and see the 7000 people in the community of Kenai living in 1994 (with all the comforts of communities much larger in mainland America). We see the abundance of gas and electric power, a well -developed and expansive water and sewer system, a service center for their large oil and gas extraction and refinement industry, a commercial fishing center, a modern airport and FAA Flight Service Station, and a tele- communications system connecting them to the rest of Alaska and the world. In all of these shots we will see the people of Kenai, actively working to build industries and a better community. We see they have all the modern conveniences and something more - they live on the Kenai Peninsula, one of the loveliest and resource rich areas of Alaska Rich in fish, wildlife and natural resources, some already developed such as the oil and fishing industries, others lying in reserve, waiting, like money in a savings account We ask the question: how did Kenai happen? What was here before the community was built? We see the banks of the Kenai River and hear music that reminds us of Alaska before White settlement We also hear the language of the Kenaitze Indians, see the remains of old village sites, and see Kenaitze descendants guiding tourists on Beginnings Interpretive Trail at Cooper Landing. We see old pictures and drawings of the people living off the abundant fish and wildlife, which is our opportunity to show beautiful images of fish, moose, bear, sheep on the mountains, berries, greens and abundant wooded forests. We now hear the Russian language and are taken to the Russian Orthodox Church and Fort Kenay to hear about Russian America and how during this period, Russian fur traders settled in the Kenaitze's rich land to buy their furs. We learn that their descendants are also a part of Kenai. A brief history of Alaska from the purchase from Russia through Statehood, Swanson oil field discovery, and up to the present day. We see that ties to Russia are not just in the past but are a new dynamic in the lives of Kenai residents today. With the melting of the ice curtain between Russia and Alaska, Kenai has reached across the Hering Strait to a sister city on Sakhalin Island, okha, a community much like Kenai, rich in oil. We see pictures of dignitaries from both cities meeting and working together for their futures. Part of building a great city is to make certain that it offers a quality of life that enriches its residents. We see a montage of arts and recreation events and activities, the Museum, Community college, Theatre, arts and crafts, the golf course, float plane Basin, Municipal Park, softball games, and other elements of a thriving community. We also see that Kenai is the Center of the larger community of the Kenai Peninsula It is a small headquarter city for these 25,000 residents. We are shown how well positioned Kenai is on the Pacific Rim and then see Mayor John Williams in front of the Kenai Bicentennial Visitor's and Cultural Center, and other city officials in front of City Hall as they tell us how Kenai is also reaching out for trade and cultural exchanges with those nations. 'We hear them sum up what we have seen and heard: Kenai's economy is based on diversity, a hub for resource development, land development, low taxes, quality services for its residents and a healthy financial structure. We see them reaching out to welcome and encourage new families and businesses to come to live in Kenai, to be part of their dream for the future.

THE MOON AND THE EARTH Living and Working in the City of Kenai A Video Proposal by BAKER-JENNINGS FILMS '�hEf�• EN'�I�yS• I L �15 Complete Film & Video Production June 27, 1994 Ms. Carol Freas City of Kenai 210 Fidalgo, Suite 200 Kenai, AK 99611-7794 Dear Ms. Freas, Thank you for the opportunity to present a proposal for the production of an economic development video for the City of Kenai. We understand that the primary objective for this video will be to encourage businesses, both large and small, to locate in the City of Kenai and that the video will illustrate the economic development, infrastructure and amenities available in the community of Kenai. Ever since the early years of the Industrial Revolution, people have had to make a choice between economic oportunity and quality of lifestyle. Historically, in order to share in the progress of the new age, there has been a migration from the genuine simplicity and natural balances of the countryside to the complexity and ambiguities of the urban life. There was simply no other option. It was our destiny to reach for the Moon. But to reach for the Moon was to forever sever ancient ties to the Earth. In recent years, more and more people have opted out of the sound and fury of contemporary urban living. Business and industry leaders and their employees have established bedroom communities far from the workplace in order to create a semblance of the easy, earthbound lifestyle they had lost. The suburbs were an attempt to touch again the forest, the meadow, the stream, the natural world our progress left behind. But soon the suburb itself became stifling and the old yearning for the ancient Earth connections returned even stronger. If you talk to people today that are moving from California to places like Montana and Idaho, they'll tell you they sacrificed income and economic opportunity for a better, more genuine lifestyle. In effect, these people chose "the good life" over "the brass ring." They opted to invest their life in the here and now rather than in the economic possibilities of the future. We believe, the heart of our video should center on the exciting reality that life in Kenai requires no choice between opportunity and lifestyle. Here is one of those 1238 West 15th Avenue, Anchorage, AK 99501-4903 Phone/Fax (907)277-4555 Cellular (907)229-6870 2 rare places on Earth where one can strive to reach one's full potential in one's business or profession, AND STILL maintain those ancient and powerful connections to the Earth and to community that define our humanity. Here there is the infrastructure for economic growth and the amenities for growth as a human being. Here a family can share their backyard with the caribou, the moose and the eagles. Here, great salmon rest in the rivers awaiting the sportsman after a day's work. Our video will present the elements of infrastructure and amenities available in the city of Kenai. We will showcase economic development. Many people probably think of Kenai as an oil -based economy. We will manifest the diversity of Kenai's economy in manufacturing, trade, construction, transportation, services, and small businesses. We can show how the economy and the population base has grown steadily since the early 60's. We will highlight the hospital, the college, the airport and schools - all the specifics listed in your request for proposal. But the video we propose will be more than a listing, it will be a story woven around a single family's decision to move to the city of Kenai. We will get to know and like the members of this family. In this case, the father will be the individual who struggled with the concepts we've expressed above. His basic question was this: "If I bring my family, my business, my employees to Kenai, will I be sacrificing economic opportunity? Is there enough infrastructure to support the growth of my family?" This, after all, is the question many of the video's viewers will be asking. And so the video will take them step by step through the decision process, leading logically and emotionally to the only possible answer - Kenai offers both economic opportunity AND a powerfully appealing lifestyle. Here I can have both the Moon and the Earth. The elements of infrastructure and amenities listed in your request for proposal can all be woven seamlessly into a few days in the life of a family. We see how they live, what they dream, how they enjoy the benefits of contemporary life AND the timeless advantages of living close to nature. We see their opportunity to grow within the family and within the community. The narrative will be the thoughts of the decision - maker as he recalls the process of making his decision. It is a kind of essay that leads us through his mind as he tried to do what was best for himself, his company and his family. We are enclosing for your review some information about our company, a production schedule which shows you how we'll finish the film by September 1, and a budget for the 3 production of a five-minute video. We are also enclosing some examples of our work. It would certainly be an honor and a delight to produce this film for you. We look forward to your decision. Sincerely, BAKER-JENNINGS FILMS Pamela K.

"THE DRUM" "The Drum" was produced for the Alaska Native Human Resource Development Program. They had an upcoming fundraising meeting with the Kellogg Foundation and wanted to show them the Spirit Camp program they had developed. We produced "The Drum" to show at their meeting. Kellogg eventually gave the program a one million dollar grant. "The Drum" was honored with a CINE Golden Eagle in Washington D.C., was used as the centerpiece to the opening of the Native American Cultural Center in Colorado, has been included in the permanent collection of the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian, and is now part of the University of Alaska Southeast's "Drug Free Schools" curriculum. In addition, the film was picked up by a national educational distributor and our client made back their original investment in sales to libraries and universities. "THE GARDEN" "The Garden" is a good example of the amount of information that can be relayed in a short period of time. This 5-minute video for Alaska Pacific University was created for a tribute dinner to outgoing president Glenn Olds. The University went on to use it as a recruiting and public relations tool. "THE PASSAGE MAKERS" "The Passage Makers" is a film we produced for Alascom. Designed as a public relations and marketing film, "The Passage Makers" ended up being used in several other departments including employee relations, rural affairs, and government affairs. It has been honored with a CINE Golden Eagle in Washington D.C. and various other awards in Anchorage, Chicago, San Francisco, and New York. "ON THE WINGS OF TOMORROW" Designed for presentation to a group of educators in Dallas late last year, "On The Wings of Tomorrow" relates the story of the development of the ground -breaking video conferencing facilities in the North Slope Borough School District. In the past seven months, "Wings" has been honored with the Nell Shipman Award for Best Achievement from Women In Film/Seattle; with the Silver Screen Award and a Certificate for Creative Excellence at the U.S. Industrial Film and Video Festival in Chicago; and with a Telly Award for Non-profit Special Presentations. 6 II.

LENGTH AND BUDGET From our experience, a professional, well -produced video runs on an average of two to three thousand dollars per finished minute. For your budget of $15,000, we are offering a completed product of five minutes. Busy executives and business owners will be able to give you that much time without thinking about it. And after viewing this film, they'll be ready for a more extensive site visit. We honestly believe that ten to twelve minutes would be closer to the perfect viewing time for a film of this nature. However, for that long a film you would need a total budget of between $20,000 and $36,000. You might consider holding this budget allocation until you can add something to it next year and be assured of producing a quality, professional video. This video will represent your community to business professionals, and it should work for you as an economic development tool for at least five to eight years. The committee should be very careful to produce a video you will be proud to show for several years to come. 8 BUDGET FOR THE PRODUCTION OF A 5-MINUTE VIDEO Preproduction planning Producer & director 2 days @ $200/day $ 400.00 Betacam tape stock 20 tapes @ $20/each 400.00 Script 1,500.00 On location videography Producer/Sound Recordist & Director/Videographer Includes camera, lights, microphones 5 days X 2 people @ $400/day/person 4,000.00 Logging footage & digitizing selects Includes all logging & digitizing equipment Editor, 4 days @ $200/day 800.00 Equipment maintenance & editing supplies 200.00 Editing Includes all editing equipment Editor, 8 days @ $300/day 29400.00 Narrator 500.00 Narration recording & editing 400.00 Music 300.00 Post -production preparation Editor, 1 day @ $200/day 200.00 Post -production Includes conforming original tapes to edited worktape, titles, credits, audio sweetening, final audio mix 3,100.00 Post -production supervision Producer, 3 days @ $200/day 600.00 VHS copies Stereo, labelled, in plastic cases 50 @ $4.00/each 200.00 TOTAL PRODUCTION BUDGET $15,000.00 NOTE: This budget includes no graphics, such as maps.

This budget also includes no line item for on camera talent and no line item for community good will. Even for five minutes, this budget is extremely tight. 9 I V .

I believe the review committee will find that the team we have assembled for this project has the experience and talent necessary to provide you a superior video for the City's use. Please don't hesitate to call if you have any questions about our proposal and thank you for this oppertunity. Sincerely, Kevin K. 8ru6 Executive VicelPre ident Response to the City of Kenai RFP for Video Production Introduction The City of Kenai is seeking to produce a color video highlighting the City's economic development, infrastructure and amenities. Northwest Strategies and its production company for this proposal, Syntax Productions, has the experience and talent necessary to deliver to the City of Kenai a superior video product. Specifications In reviewing the city's RFP, we noted the following specifications and offer our response to each: 1. Acquired on Hi-8, U-matic 314 SP or Betacam SP. All of our video productions are shot in Betacam SP, the highest video grade possible. 2. Final product mastered on Betacam SP or better. Final post production will be mastered on Betacam SP. 3. Provide script with City`s review. Northwest Strategies will seek approval for preliminary and final script approval. 4. Not to exceed 25 minutes in length. There's an old saying in video production that a video longer than ten minutes had better have a car chase and a love scene. We subscribe to that theory. We believe the City would be best served by an 8-10 minute, fast -paced video that holds the viewer's interest. Television is best used as an emotional medium and we propose doing just that. 5. Rough cut delivery by September 1, 1994. We see no difficulty meeting this date. 6. Final production to be fifty (50) copies of VHS Hi-Fi stereo video tapes to be distributed with labels in plastic cases. Agreed. 7. Final program and copies to be completed and delivered to the City of Kenai by October 1, 1994. Agreed. City of Kenai - RFP Response Page 1 8. Demonstration tape of previous work to be included with proposal. Tape is included. 9. All inclusive work to be completed and delivered for a not -to -exceed amount of $15,000. Agreed, see cost proposal, page 7. 10. Copyrights to all footage shot, rough cut and final program shall remain with the City of Kenai. Agreed to the extent that all footage shot and post production work initiated for this project shall remain with the City. Should we obtain and use other footage from previous productions as a supplement to this project, then we could not grant the City copyright to those items. As an example, if we locate a dynamic scene of a fisherman fighting a king salmon and obtain its use for this production, we would not be able to grant the City the copyright on someone else's work.

Wonder Years Script 1 Russian Orthodox Church and Chapel In August of 1791, a Russian sailing ship, St. George the Victorious, anchored at the mouth of the Kenai River in Cook Inlet. The site was to be the location of Fort St. Nicholas and would serve as home base for Russian fur trading operations, the first industry of the area. These noted arrivals were not the first to call this place home. Their arrival was undoubtedly observed by the indigenous people of the area, an Athabaskan Indian tribe who called themselves Dena'ina. Referred to as the Kenaitze, the lives of the Dena'ina would forever change with the coming of the Russians. As time passed the two cultures began to blend. The Russian Orthodox Church in Kenai is still a house of worship for the descendants of these two groups. It stands much as it always has, a symbol of the village from the past and a reminder to the developing city of its heritage and of those who have come before. Fort Kenay Next to the church is a log structure called Fort Kenay. In 1868, the United States made one of its wisest purchases and Alaska changed to American ownership. Soldiers were dispatched to occupy three areas in Alaska, Kenai was one of them. They built a structure, stayed a year, then abandoned the place entirely to attend to more pressing matters. This Wonder Years Script 2 reconstructed building represents that era. It now houses Yaghanen, a social services program run by the Dena'ina people for their tribal members. Area Canneries, Kenai Municipal Boat Harbor, City Dock This thriving city is built on a uniquely Alaskan culture. The Kenai River and Cook Inlet are alive with salmon coming in from the Pacific to spawn in the glacial fed rivers and streams. This valuable resource has played a key role in the areas development and economy. Numerous canneries process the catch brought in by area commercial fisherman. 182 Kenai families make their living in this proud tradition. It is more than an income, it is a way of life, handed down from generation to generation. It started in the 1890's and became the primary industry in the area. Fishing has endured the change and development of this once sleepy fishing village. The Kenai Municipal Boat Harbor and City Dock operates lease stations for independent and commercial use. The city crane is available to load and unload non product wharfage. Diesel and gas are available for purchase. Wonder Years Script 3 Oil Development In the 1960's oil development became the prominent industry in the Kenai area. The Alaska Almanac reports the 1950's census population as 321, by 1970 it had grown to 3533, in response to the development. Eighteen production platforms operate in the Cook Inlet. It is one of three successful off shore oil production areas in the U.S. The oil industry helped bring Kenai to the prosperous economic level that exsists today. Kenai City Hall In 1960 Kenai became a first class city. It is an exception in Alaska boom towns. Since its earliest days Kenai has pulled together, in unified purpose to insure the orderly development of their community. In 1992 this first class city became an All American City. While considered "wilderness" to those accustomed to big city life, Kenai has amenities and services that meet the needs of a thriving population. Wonder Years Script 4 Central Peninsula General Hospital Central Peninsula General Hospital, a 62 bed facility is minutes away in neighboring Soldotna.

With safety as its focus, this facility provides classroom and simulation training while working in conjunction with the local oil companies to teach necessary petroleum fire saftey procedures. Wonder Years Script 5 Wilderness has its advantages when it comes to recreation. The Kenai Peninsula is considered Alaskas playground, Kenai is central to that. Kenai Golf Course A locally owned and operated 18 hole golf course set in the midst of Kenai's beautiful environment, is enjoyed by citizens as well as visitors. In fact, the 18th hole itself is one of the hardest in the nation. Kenai Municipal Softball Fields, Kenai Little League Fields Kenai municipal softball fields provide recreation for an active population. Kenai's little league, Boys and Girls Club, and Kenai Peninsula Hockey Association are homes of well organized programs that promotes fun and fitness for the area youth. Peninsula Oilers For 21 years, the Peninsula Oilers Baseball Club have made Kenai their summer home. This club draws collegiate players nationwide, with many moving on to professional careers. Local businesses are able to show support through advertising Wonder Years Script 6 and endorsements. In 1993 they brought home a NBC Worlds Series Championship. Municipal Park Kenai has numerous parks that encourage outdoor enjoyment for all ages, .in all seasons. Kenai Municipal Airport, Float Plane Basin, FAA Flight Service Station Air travel is a crucial ingredient to Alaskan communities. The Kenai Municipal Airport is an attractive modern facility that serves Kenai as well as the rest of the Peninsulas population. The Kenai Airport is the largest on the Kenai Peninsula and is used as and alternate in bad weather for the Anchorage International Airport. Inside are rental car agencies, local information on lodging, fishing, and tourism, a resturant, bar and gift shop. Approximately 110,000 people pass through this full service airport each year. One in every 58 people in Alaska is a certified pilot. Bush pilots abound, providing access to smaller outlying communities, transportation to "real" wilderness, incredible fishing and world class hunting. Increased opportunities will Wonder Years Script 7 be presented upon the development of the Float Plane Basin. The FAA Flight Servise Station controls all radio remote sights for South Central Alaska and is responsible for providing weather information. Housing Examples 6500 people call Kenai home. They have come from all over but have joined together to develop a sense of community legendary in Alaska. Habitat for Humanity, an organization committed to providing housing for those in need have built several homes in Kenai. This is the small town attitude that is valued and appreciated by those that call Kenai home. Kenai's beautiful environment and breathtaking surroundings provide a view unsurpassed. The Chigmit Mountain Range is a widely accessible view, many homes face its splendor. Kenai has a wide variety of housing to meet the needs of its diversified population.

Apartment living is available close to schools and shopping and in more secluded locations for those who prefer it. Located near Old Towne Kenai, overlooking the mouth of the Kenai River, the beautiful Kenai Senior Citizens housing complex Wonder Years Script 8 is an elaborate home to many of the early settlers as well as providing them with a lively social environment.

Surprisingly affordable, it is possible to find just about anything you're looking for, from Alaskan seafood to fresh Alaskan produce.

Education is a priority. Sears and Mountain View Elementarys prepare children for Kenai Middle school. Kenai Central High School and Kenai Alternative Schools finish thier basic education. The focus from the beginning is life long learning and opportunities for each child to reach maximum potential. The Kenai school system has the reputation of being one of the best in.the state, which is noteworthy because Alaskas school system ranks among the highest in the nation. Wonder Years Script 9 Kenai Peninsula College Tucked away in a picturesque setting on the Kenai River is Kenai Peninsula College. A branch of the University of Alaska, it offers diversified fields of study, highly qualified instructors with a low instructor/student ratio. Higher education is alive and well here, this college is home to 1,500 students a semester.

Overview Vantage Point Productions proposes to produce —from concept to completion —a color video presentation illustrating the economic development, infrastructure and amenities of the City of Kenai for the bid amount of $13, 055.00. Vantage Point Productions will work closely with the City of Kenai to develop a script and treatment which will accurately and effectively convey the desired message. The script will strive to be informative, educational, and motivational —reflecting a city that is rich in history yet has its' sights set on the future. The treatment will depict the most effective mood and feel for the proposed video. It will lay out creative guidelines for shooting style, shot selection, transition effects, title typestyle, voice talent, and music selection. The completed script and treatment will be presented to the city for review and input. Specified locations will be videotaped on the Beta SP tape format using the latest model of Sony Betacam professional video camera. Because high quality shots are essential to the success of this video presentation, we will dedicate enough time to shoot each location under ideal lighting and weather conditions. To enhance the quality of the video and to involve the viewer, local residents and business people will be incorporated into many of the shots. Prior permission and talent releases will be obtained from all individuals who are videotaped. The final program will be edited on an Avid Media Suite Pro digital non- linear system. With this system we will assemble a professional program with transition effects, digital video effects, titles and four tracks of true CD - quality audio. The City of Kenai's input is welcome during the edit sessions. And because our edit suite is located on the Kenai Peninsula, attending these sessions will be extremely convenient. Once the edit decisions are made, the program will be output directly from disk and mastered on Beta SP tape. A rough cut of the video production will be delivered to the City of Kenai by September 1, 1994. After input from the city we will make any necessary revisions and submit the final program for review. Vantage Point Productions P.O. Box 1552 • Soldotna, Alaska 99669 • Phone/Fax 907-262-1357 N A.

Scriptwriting and Treatment Developing a script and treatment will require working closely with the Mayor and City Council members to accurately and effectively portray the City of Kenai as a thriving and vibrant community.
