Josh Westover Filmmaker
My name is Josh Westover, and I’m a freelance filmmaker dedicated to capturing and sharing authentic “Real Stories” of real people. I believe in the power of storytelling to connect us, inspire change, and offer valuable insights into the human experience. Currently, I’m seeking funding to convert my van into a filmcamper van with cameras so I can drive around and help people share important stories on mental health, disability and important topics, this funding will also be used to put towards van costs and some equipment I need such as radio mics, a small drone and equipment bags. – which will significantly enhance the production quality and impact of my upcoming projects.
These stories deserve to be told with the clarity and professionalism they merit. This is where your organization comes in. I am reaching out to you to explore a mutually beneficial sponsorship opportunity. I have gained nearly 28k followers within 6 months on social media and my YouTube channel is growing. I have also been on BBC radio twice in April. I want to tell stories that inspire, help and support people. It seems my work has saved lives already which is incredible to me. Please see on my TIkTok channel the posts and comments to see for yourself.
Target Audience
My work appeals to everyone. I want to help people, save lives, inspire people and educate people through my film work.
Key Dates and Timings
I want to be set with sponsorship/funding by the 15th of June
Specific Opportunity Details
In 6 months I have reached neatly 30k in followers and have 300 people already go onto my website per month. Whilst it isn’t a lot at the moment, I am growing rapidly.
Features and Benefits
I can offer my professional services from graphic design, videography, and editing which includes a wide range of content production. I can also put the sponsor on my Van, my YouTube, my website and on my social media videos.
Investment
I am looking for promotional support, and a monthly retainer for an agreed service such as me advetising your company. I do not charge people to tell their stories so cannot offer a financial return. Perhaps one day when my YouTube is big.
I do not get paid or take a salary but I would be grateful for financial support towards my Van and the conversion with wheelchair access (not for me but for people that might want to be in the van to tell their story and they are disabled)
The van will be paid for each month but would love to pay it off. £37k
I would also need around £8000 for equipment.
Thank you
