About Free Range

What You Can Win
We are granting $15,000 worth of our core products to help at least one organization communicate more clearly and effectively. Please take a moment to learn about our range of products to get an idea of what this grant could do for you.


Flash Animation
Flash is a powerful on-line tool for creating web-based animations or spot elements of intense visual interest on an otherwise static web page. Our campaign-focused internet movies have gathered hundreds of thousands of signatures, recruited thousands of members, and have captured the attention of major media including Wired, CNN, and NBC. In 2005, Beyond the Fire, a Flash documentary we produced, was featured at the Sundance Film Festival. The product of the 2003 Free Range grant, The Meatrix, was the most successful web advocacy ad in history and forever changed public perceptions of factory farming. Read more about Flash animation or watch our movies in our gallery.

Print Design
You’ve spent months writing a key report, so it’s natural you’d want it to have a cover that begs to be opened. Or, you need an invitation that says both grassroots and gala. When Free Range creates a print piece, we take the time to understand our clients’ unique audiences and goals, which ensures that your design and message work together seamlessly. See examples of recent print work in our gallery.

Web Design
Free Range’s web work falls into two categories: website design and e-communication tools. On the website side, Free Range has designed sites for critical progressive organizations including Heifer International, Greenpeace, and the ACLU. To provide you with an end product that’s both visually stunning and functionally rock solid, we bolster our designs with strategic and supporting services including website reviews and installing content management systems.

In addition to websites, Free Range creates campaign-focused “take action” emails and organizational e-newsletters that are read rather than deleted when they arrive in subscribers’ inboxes. See web designs by Free Range in our gallery.

Organizational Identity
How do you communicate all the nuances of your mission in one visual image? Free Range has helped global and grassroots organizations alike craft logos, press kits, conference displays, and other communications pieces that say it all in one glance. See sample identity pieces in our gallery.

Strategic Communications Consulting
Free Range’s expertise doesn’t stop—or always even start—with creative design. Our strategy team helps our client’s step back and make the big picture moves that ensure their key campaigns, websites, Flash movies, or reports actually achieve their stated goals. We specialize in the emerging field of online campaign strategy—using the Web to recruit and engage volunteers, raise money, earn media attention, and succeed in creating positive change.
