Featured Work
Bladder Cancer Awareness PSA
Early cancer detection is essential for saving lives. As a central component of a national awareness campaign, MiniMatters partnered with the Bladder Cancer Advocacy Network (BCAN) to produce a PSA video highlighting blood in urine as a key symptom. Broadcast on TV, social media, and YouTube, the video campaign drove nearly 60,000 new visits to BCANβs website in just one month.
Transportation Policy Video
Policy can be hard to understand. To help our client communicate the benefits of investment in transportation infrastructure, MiniMatters created this video about the impact of quality roads and bridges on a local soybean farmer. The video, as well as three others in the series, complemented and supported the clientβs whitepaper on the role of transportation in the U.S. economy.
Foundation Overview Video
Awareness-raising is a key step in marketing and fundraising. To help the American Association for Thoracic Surgery communicate their Foundationβs profound impact to a large audience of stakeholders, we created this video combining grantee and donor interviews with footage and photos.
