    1. Women and Democracy: Two Great Things That Work Great Together

      EMILY's List - Non-Profit - http://emilyslist.org/

      The U.S. ranks 73rd internationally in political representation of women. In 2012, a presidential election year, women’s votes will be at a premium – but studies have shown that women voters need reliable information to motivate them to participate. An online video that educates women and inspires them to get out and vote would have a huge impact on an incredibly important election – and could help boost women’s political representation in our country.

      • Song Of A Citizen (Re-Linking the Self to Self-Government)

        Song Of A Citizen - Non-Profit - http://www.songofacitizen.com

        Most Americans worry government is broken beyond repair. Song Of A Citizen will demonstrate there actually is a way to end our dysfunctional politics. And that’s for us -- The People -- to take our jobs as citizens more seriously. Much more seriously. Because until we do, broken government will be the best we can ever hope for. In the last two years we've produced a debut series of videos for this apathy-busting initiative -- and established dynamic relationships with all major civic engagement organizations, who’re eager to promote us. Only thing lacking to launch bigtime is a pro website.

        • World Social Forum 2.0

          Social Watch - Non-Profit - www.forumsocialmundial.org.br (main) + various others (www.wsftv.net, www.worldsocialforum.info)

          The World Social Forum is an open meeting place where social movements, activists networks, NGOs and other civil society organizations come together to debate and share ideas democratically, to formulate proposals, create alliances and network for effective action for "another world is possible" (the slogan of the WSF). Since the first world encounter in 2001 (Porto Alegre, Brasil), it has taken the form of a permanent world process building alternatives to neo-liberal policies in many countries all over the world. The 2003 worldwide antiwar demonstration was launched by the WSF. And the climate justice, the campaigns for public water and many others have been a result of the WSF coalition building. After 10 years, it is time to re-think and update the communication strategies and to have a more immediate way to reach out and be recognizable - and Free Range can help make a leap and address the use of the internet and other communication means, with a stronger identity.

          • Change On A Human Scale

            The Engage Network - Hybrid - www.engagenet.org/

            Our passion is building up everyday people as powerful leaders in a larger movement for change. In the past 3 years, we have grown to a place where we are consulting with other organizations about how to build strong local leaders and communities that are networked into a national progressive movement. We've begun blogging and presenting at conferences, and have been well-received by organizational and movement leaders. We feel a compelling Free Range video would ensure our theory of "change on a human scale" is understandable and inspiring to everyone, and a great way to launch our new website.
