Nico exhibit video

The National Park Service is procuring video production services to create an exhibit video for the Nicodemus National Historic Site (NICO) under solicitation number 140P2125Q0155. The project requires the production of a 2-4 minute silent, historically accurate video reenactment that will be filmed as a single continuous scene featuring 10-20 reenactors using professional 4K camera equipment in portrait orientation (2160 x 3840 resolution). The contractor must also develop an accompanying audio description track that will run continuously alongside the main video display. The video is intended to create a realistic historical representation that educates and captivates viewers, with the final product displayed on a 4K monitor mounted in portrait mode inside a building at the historic site. Questions and answers were due on August 6, 2025, and proposal submissions are due by 3:00 PM Eastern Time on August 25, 2025.

This procurement is designated as a 100% small business set-aside with a budget range of $35,000 to $45,000, and there is no incumbent contractor currently holding this work. The project involves collaboration with multiple stakeholders including a Contracting Officer, Contracting Officer's Representative, and park staff throughout the production process. The National Park Service will provide reference materials, location access, and reenactors, while the contractor is responsible for all aspects of video production including any necessary CGI elements with realistic building recreations. Performance will take place at the Nicodemus National Historic Site, with the contractor required to work closely with NPS staff to ensure historical accuracy and accessibility compliance. The final deliverable must be suitable for a general audience and meet specific technical specifications for the portrait-oriented display system at the visitor facility.
