Florida DrupalCamp 2013 Session Recording Sponsorships

Published April 4, 2013

Florida Drupal DiverWe're trying something new this year at Florida DrupalCamp 2013 (Saturday, April 20 - tickets on sale now for just $25) and we're looking for some (financial) help to get it done.

We'd like to be able to record all sessions and post them online for the entire Drupal community. In order to do so effectively, we've decided to hire Davram Tech (contact me if you'd like to be put in touch with them) to take care of it for us. Utzu from Davram Tech has agreed to travel to our camp, record all the sessions, and upload them to a video hosting site of our choice. The interesting thing about it is that it is going to provide a valuable new sponsorship opportunity for our camp. The sponsorship of a session video will allow the sponsor to add branding to the start and finish of the video - as long as it remains online. This type of ongoing branding is surely worth much more than we're charging for it (more on that later).

Of course, hiring an organization to do all the work of recording sessions isn't free. In our case, it works out to about $150 per session. We raised a good deal of money from our amazing sponsors, but not quite enough to have full coverage of all sessions. So, we decided that, at a minimum, we're going to record 20 sessions. These 20 sessions will be sponsored by our existing Platinum, Gold, Silver, and Bronze sponsors. The remaining 16 (or so) session are officially up-for-grabs. We're looking for some additional sponsors to pony up $150 for each session video they'd like to sponsor. Interested? Let me know.

Here's the way it works: we're letting our current sponsors pick the sessions they'd like to sponsor. After that, it's first-come, first-serve. Want to get your organizations name permanently attached to a #fldc13 session video? Let me know.
