OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address? 

Having recently completed our new corporate headquarters in Denver, we wanted to create a video that celebrated the project from start to finish. In addition, we wanted to celebrate the installation of the final corporate signage as it was placed on top of the building.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

Snowy Peak was initially a referral from our ad agency. We have since partnered with them directly on several different projects.

What was the scope of their involvement and team dynamic?

 Having worked with Snowy Peak previously to created videos for our ground- breaking ceremony in 2020, and again when we celebrated the final steel beam being dropped into place - the 'topping-out' ceremony, we knew their team of experts would tell our story with professionalism and class.

Who did you work with and what was the feedback process like?

We worked with a project manager and producer who helped to keep our project on track and on budget. Raw footage was shared via VIMEO and notes were passed back and forth seamlessly during the advanced planning stages and editing process. Very easy to work with.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What's the status of this engagement?

We now have a library of amazing content to share and document our buildings construction and the impact it has made on our community and organization.

How did your relationship with your partner evolve?

Snowy Peak is first class all the way. Their creativity, attention to detail, and communication are top-notch. We look forward to partnering with them in the future.

In what ways can they improve?

I'm not sure improvements are necessary. We have now partnered with Snowy Peak on multiple projects, and they consistently exceed our expectations. The team is talented, responsive, and creative. Truely a great choice for all your production needs.

What advice do you have for clients with similar needs to yours?

 Know your project and have a clear vision for the story you would like to tell. With minimal direction, the team at Snowy Peak will take your vision, and input, and produce something great! This team is as good as it gets!

Project summary

Snowy Peak produced two videos for a bank based in Denver, Colorado. Each video featured a corporate milestone and was shared with internal and external stakeholders.

Feedback summary

All of the videos that Snowy Peak produced received rave reviews from customers, employees, and partners. The team was easy to work with — they listened attentively, provided creative inputs accordingly, and always responded in a timely manner. They were also professional, thorough, and skilled.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the Director of Marketing for Vectra Bank Colorado. With assets of $3 billion, Vectra Bank Colorado is a proactive, customer-focused organization dedicated to relationship banking. Part of the Zions Bancorporation (NASDAQ: ZION) family of banks, Vectra serves Colorado’s small, middle-market and corporate business clients with 35 locations throughout Colorado, and one in Farmington, New Mexico.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Snowy Peak, and what were your goals?

In 2020 Vectra Bank Colorado broke ground on a new corporate center located at Belleview Station in Denver, Colorado. Due to COVID regulations we were unable to host the traditional ground breaking ceremony or topping out ceremonies one would typically associate with a project this size. Snowy Peak was brought in to help us create two videos - one for each event - that would serve as the vehicle in which we could share these construction milestones with our employees and clients from around the state.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

Snowy Peak was initially a referral from our ad agency. We have since partnered with them directly on several different projects.

Describe the video(s) and the process in detail, including the project steps and all stages of production.

We started with an initial discovery meeting to help the team understand our vision and goals for each event and project. Following discovery, we provided notes, interviews, and follow-up materials for sections of each video we knew we would want to feature and include. Troy and the team asked great questions, implemented a solid production plan based on our conversation, and helped us to understand all of the options available to us to achieve our goals. This included site visits where necessary and advance interviews.

Who did you work with and what was the feedback process like?

We worked with a project manager and producer who helped to keep our project on track and on budget. Raw footage was shared via VIMEO and notes were passed back and forth seamlessly during the advanced planning stages and editing process. Very easy to work with.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

All of the videos we have created with Snowy Peak have received rave reviews. In each case the team has met, and exceeded, our expectations. Our videos have been shared throughout the bank with customers and employees who would have otherwise not had the opportunity to participate in the construction process - and the videos are helping us to continually create excitement and engagement around this project.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

The team is easy to communicate with, provides input and ideas when necessary, and listens intently to your goals and desired outcomes. We found the team to be very responsive and I appreciate their attention to detail and creativity.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

I would not hesitate to recommend Snowy Peak productions to anyone seeking professional production services. They impressed me in every instance of our relationship, and the final product was always fantastic. They are a professional, creative, and talented team - you won't go wrong selecting this company for your production needs.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

I wish we could have met more often to discuss other ways in which we could leverage the content created? Social media opportunities? Additional clips and edits? The team did such a nice job on the primary project, it would be great to understand additional options for leveraging and sharing their work.
