Welcome to Help Us Save Lives
Advertising, Sponsorship & Investment Opportunities
We believe there is value to the viewer AND related companies by including selected products and services in the feature films, TV episodes, our digital online magazine, and our interactive website. One of the most effective ways to communicate your brand's message is either as a sponsor, advertiser or by inserting your product or brand INTO the episode or feature film. Product placement and brand integration ARE related but NOT the same! For example, showing a can of soda IN the episode is product placement, and having the characters explain something ABOUT that product is brand integration. We offer both, on a selected basis. We reserve the right to refuse ANY product, service, company or advertisement if we feel it does not meet the criteria for that episode. For example, we would probably not allow an alcoholic ad in the "Speed Kills" safe driving episode for teens, UNLESS it was a message to "drink and drive responsibly."

Customized Video or Film
Our Services
At Handcraft Film, our vision is to create videos, documentaries, TV shows, and films that help humanity, as well as entertain. We refer to those as "docu-tainment" projects. Sometimes a client will want their own video, similar to the one we created here for suicide awareness. https://youtu.be/FjHxkCAd-6s?si=JWTvJ5hoN2lN3TLs
We can custom-create a video that will serve as a media pitch deck, a documentary, or video for charities, groups or organizations who want to use videos, TV shows or films for their projects. Contact us for more information the link below for additional details.

Product Placement
We offer selected product placements with or without brand integration (see next panel) in our TV shows. For our purposes, product placement shows the product in the scene without any mention of the product or the brand and is less expensive than adding brand integration as well.

To be considered for inclusion in our TV shows or films we work on a retainer basis. We charge a flat fee of $1,500 Canadian to consider your products, and then sign an NDA with you, which protects your company, designs and OUR company so we can discuss freely whether these are a match. IF SO, then we apply the $1,500 towards the fee you would pay to have your products included, both for product placement and/or brand integration. If we do NOT use the product the entire $1,500 is returned within five (5) business days back to the credit card used to complete the retainer payment.
We have four TV shows and three feature films where we can consider your products. The retainer is paid ONE TIME, to be considered for ALL projects. Should we agree to use your products we are paid as follows, once we agree upon an amount. (Note, all pricing is in Canadian dollars which saves about 25% due to the favorable exchange rate of US to Canadian dollars.) For example, the $1,500 Canadian retainer is about $1,125 US and can be paid online with any credit card to get started).
25% of the amount with the initial contract securing your products in our project.
25% of the amount when we provide proof of inclusion within the script of that project.
25% of the amount when the proof of filming has taken place with that product included.
25% of the amount when the film or TV show has completed final editing and sent to you to view.
IF we use the product and then cut ALL scenes where it was to be shown, ALL monies paid are returned.
