Cass County approves $14,000 contract for summer video campaign
Summary
County staff selected Absolute Studios to produce up to 10 short videos for $14,000 to highlight under-recognized county departments and employees; the board approved the contract and an associated budget adjustment from an existing accessibility allocation.
County communications staff proposed a summer video campaign to highlight lesser-known departments and long‑tenured county employees. Two vendors responded; Absolute Studios proposed up to 10 videos for $14,000 while a competing proposal offered fewer videos for the same price. Staff recommended Absolute Studios based on past experience and a larger deliverable set.
Staff explained the $14,000 would come from a bundle in which $60,000 was previously earmarked to address ADA digital-accessibility work and a video project; after the accessibility contract and implementation fee, $14,000 remained for the video vendor. The board moved to approve the Absolute Studios contract for the video campaign and authorize the required budget adjustment; the motion passed on roll call.
