Hi Helen,

We’re excited to present this proposal for a multi-episode collaboration between Visit Ålesund and ASCEND Television (ASCEND) — designed to showcase the region as the ultimate year-round destination to our extensive North American audience of skiers, snowboarders, and outdoor adventure enthusiasts.

We’re excited to share this proposal exploring the potential for a collaboration between Visit Ålesund and ASCEND Television (ASCEND) — positioning Ålesund as the ultimate winter destination for our massive North American audience of skiers, snowboarders, and adventurers.

Our vision is to showcase the area through the eyes of a local or professional athlete, capturing the legendary scenery, world-class skiing and vibrant culture — while weaving in the deep personal connections that make these places truly special.

This project proposal is built as a genuine partnership, delivering cinematic, high-impact content and exceptional value to our destination collaborators. Deliverables include:

• Production and distribution of one or more full ASCEND episodes filmed in Ålesund and surrounding area

• National broadcast on Outside TV in the U.S. market, with a minimum audience of 528,000 viewers per episode

• Option for integrated advertising with call to action messaging, reaching 1.9 million outdoor enthusiasts per month.

• Creation of social media clips and promotional content

• Delivery of all raw footage for license-free use to Visit Ålesund

To help offset some of our production costs we are looking for $7000 USD. This includes all deliverables listed above and the episode is fully turnkey.

To the right you can find two sample episodes currently airing on Outside TV as well as more detailed info on our audience demographic as well as access to all 6 seasons of ASCEND on Outside TV.

Best regards,

S-media & ASCEND Television
