The Challenge

Folktellers for Literacy creates immersive programs that help students become storytellers, filmmakers, and heroes of their own narratives. Beyond building a strong brand and digital presence, the organization needed practical systems to support a major annual moment: the Folktellers for Literacy Kids Film Awards.

For the 2026 awards, held at Emagine Theater on June 4th, teachers needed a simple, reliable way to upload student videos from their classrooms. Those submissions had to be organized cleanly, and the program also required a fair, accessible online voting system so the community could participate in recognizing outstanding student work — without the chaos of scattered email attachments, incompatible formats, or manual vote tracking.

The Solution

Intensify Digital became the operational backbone for both the public-facing brand and the full awards workflow. IntensifySocial drove consistent storytelling and audience growth around the literacy mission. IntensifyCRM captured inquiries, newsletter sign-ups, and donation interest through branded forms. IntensifyVideo managed the intake and organization of teacher-uploaded school videos and supported the online voting process that powered the 2026 Kids Film Awards at Emagine Theater.

Core Approach

Connect the year-round literacy mission to a high-visibility event. Brand and community systems kept the Folktellers Universe visible and growing, while the video and voting tools gave teachers a clear submission channel and gave the wider community a real voice in celebrating student filmmakers — reinforcing that every student’s story matters.
