AFS- Dear American Mom



We created this video in the form of a letter to the host moms of AFS, an international exchange org who is also one of our favorite clients. This was shot very quickly over a single day with the help of YES program scholars from around the world. It was interesting to collaborate with the students on the script and title card creation.... a fusion of user-generated and professional content.

We are looking forward to using more creative formats like this to tell stories as big as international exchange.

Remembering 9/11 with Brooklyn Heights



We marked the 10th Anniversary of 9/11 by participating in a multimedia program at beautiful St. Ann & the Holy Trinity in Brooklyn Heights. Our contribution was creating several videos for the afternoon, which provided the voice and feel of the community's experience during that historic event. 9/11 is of course burned into our collective memory, so it was refreshing to experience it again through the personal stories of Brooklyn's hardest hit neighborhood. It was also a blast to spend a late summer day roaming around Brooklyn trying to capture the beauty and diversity of our home borough.
