What Is A “Delusional Palace Spot”? And what’s included?

A Delusional Palace Spot is Hawaiʻi’s ONLY one-time, flat-rate EXCLUSIVE package created to showcase your story in the most impactful way possible. This all-inclusive package includes everything listed below, tailored specifically to your story:

  • 1 Mini-Documentary (5 minutes long, viewable on Delusional Palace’s YouTube and website, includes social links to your brand)

  • 1 Accompanying Blog Article (Full transcription of the interview viewable on our website, includes social links to your brand)

  • 1 “Calling Card” Mini-Documentary Preview (up to 2 minutes, to pin to your reels as the first thing the audience sees on social media)

  • 3 Mini-Reels (vertical short-form clips of the mini-doc, 30-45 seconds each, viewable on Delusional Palace’s TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube shorts, fast-paced clips built for social media)

  • 1 Blooper Reel (length varies case by case, viewable on Delusional Palace’s YouTube, YouTube Shorts, TikTok, and Instagram)

To maximize the impact and reach of each palace person’s spot, all content per spot is uploaded gradually over the course of two weeks, keeping your audience engaged and connected with nothing but your content across all our social media for 2 weeks.

After purchasing your Spot, you will receive all your content’s files — not JUST access on our website and socials. This lets you view your content in the best quality possible, wherever/whenever you want.

Additional details about sharing permissions and usage rights are provided later in a separate agreement if agreed to move forward with a Spot.

Who is Delusional Palace exactly for?

Our mission in the palace is to amplify the voices of all young dreamers of Hawai’i. Artists, Musicians, Creators, Entrepreneurs, really anyone who does ANYTHING that wants to share with the world exactly what you are delusional in.

For the ones who are just beginning their journeys, wanting something valuable, exclusive, and professional, you can’t get anywhere else but in the palace

1. We’re your brand’s long-lasting story

  • With Delusional Palace, you’re not buying a one-time ad — you’re buying a permanent brand story you can reuse on your own socials, website, pitch decks, grant apps, media kits, and even TV spots.

  • ALL of our Mini-Documentaries, Blog Articles, and EVERYTHING in your Spot are built to have a long shelf life for you to repost and refer customers to for years.

  • When someone first discovers you through social media and visits your profile, having your mini-documentary preview pinned to your profile, front and center, instantly hooks them into your story as a first introduction to your brand.

2. A Hook for potential customers

  • People don’t just buy what you sell — they buy who you are. Showing your passion, business and story through a Mini-Documentary, Blog Article, etc. on your brand creates a genuine connection that turns first-time visitors into loyal customers.

  • It is encouraged to pin your mini-doc’s preview to the top of your socials so any new visitors are greeted with your best story first — grabbing one’s attention and making them want to learn more after this first introduction to you.

3. Boosting Press/Partnerships with Our Blog

  • The Article is a great piece to send to journalists, bloggers, and community spotlights — it’s a powerful platform to captivate sponsors, potential clients, etc. when searching your name. Your article reveals the FULL SCOPE of your journey and what sets your story apart, therefore, what sets your brand apart.

  • Giving anyone who comes across it a compelling reason to invest in you and your brand. It becomes the definitive resource that truly captures your story, your mission, and why you’re an opportunity they can’t afford to miss.

4. Better credibility factor for your brand

  • Our professional, cinematic 4k level of visual quality and tone of your mini-documentary are designed to give your business and brand a polished, professional look that stands out—especially for small businesses just getting started. This film-like quality comes from expert lighting, framing, and storytelling that elevate your brand beyond what typical promos or social posts have to offer.

    Your Article, Mini-Reels, and more only serve to complement this by deepening your story and expanding your reach across all associated platforms.

    This level of presentation helps build confidence and trust with investors, grant committees, potential sponsors, customers, and/or just first-time viewers, making them feel more comfortable choosing your brand.

Where will my “Delusional Palace Spot” be posted?

When your Delusional Palace Spot goes live, here’s how we distribute it to make sure your story gets the best reach possible in the palace:

  • Website: Your Mini-Documentary and Blog Article will both be posted on Delusional Palace’s Official Website under DOCS and BLOG. At the bottom of each, we include links to your social media and websites.

  • YouTube & YouTube Shorts: Delusional Palace uploads all content across our YouTube Channel and YouTube Shorts. If you have a YouTube channel you want associated, we’ll add an Info Card linking directly to your channel on your main mini-documentary, plus include your channel and socials in the video description for promotion.

  • Instagram: Your 2-minute “Calling Card” preview is posted as a Partnered Post with your Instagram account (this is required), so it shows up on both feeds and can (encouraged to) be pinned to your page. The 3 Mini-Reels and Blooper Reel will be posted on Delusional Palace’s Instagram, with your account tagged and @ mentioned for full credit to your appearances in the palace.

  • TikTok: Delusional Palace uploads all short content (2-minute “Calling Card” preview, 3 Mini-Reels, and Blooper Reel) on our TikTok and will tag your TikTok account in the captions to help direct viewers to your profile.

You’ll also receive all content files directly. Full usage permissions and upload guidelines are outlined in a simple release form you’ll receive if you are accepted.

When do you receive the “Delusional Palace Spot” (after filming)?

A spot’s project completion is expected 1 month from the final shoot date (but this can vary project to project depending on editing, color grading etc).

All of your spot’s content in file form is shared with you before the spot goes live, but is required to first be premiered across Delusional Palace’s included social media platforms: Delusional Palace’s Official Website, YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok.

Can I Request Changes or Revisions To My Palace Spot?

We put a lot of care into crafting your Delusional Palace Spot to capture your story exactly how it deserves to be seen.

Keeping you involved throughout the entire process so that your vision shines through.
