Production of Forensic Medicine Color Training DVD
Contractor shall create a 30 minute (approximate) color training DVD in high definition. See
attached Proposed Video Plan (Attachment 1) for details, although this may be adjusted
based on feedback during the bidders conference and any negotiations. The training DVD
will be presented in continuous run and chaptered formats. This DVD must be of marketable
quality for anticipated statewide and national distribution. The video will use actors as well as
video footage some of which already exists (close up video) and some of which will need to
be filmed (macro video). The video will also use a few slides from an existing power point
presentation as well as still close-up photos. Filming location will need to be determined
(hospital vs. studio). Course director (Marilyn Kaufhold, MD) will be available at all phases of
the project to coordinate those details and CCFMTC will provide other medical experts.
The contractor will:
1) Finalize the script with and prepared by the course director.
2) Cast the DVD with professionals from the field and/or professional actors in principal
speaking roles. The course director and project director have final casting approval.
3) Plan for and use animation for a portion of the actual examination
4) Provide all equipment and facilities necessary for pre-production, production, and
post-production activities.
5) Provide a timeline with clearly identified project benchmarks tied to pre-production,
production, and post-production
6) Submit examples of vendor's work on compatible projects
Development of the project will take place in distinct phases
1) Phase 1- Planning for the video (working with course director)
2) Phase 2- Script writing/finalization
3) Phase 3- Logistics (location, actor selection, etc.)
4) Phase 4- Filming
i. utilization of professional medical personnel in the DVD regarding
approaches to the child
ii. interviewing of the child
iii. possible animation of the a portion of the examination
iv. incorporating existing video footage of close up examination process, power
point slides, and photographs that will be provided
5) Phase 5-final editing of the DVD
6) Phase 6- Packaging (determining photos and information for DVD cover) and distribution
