Update about our series on PTS in the Military

We’re getting closer to a finished product every day and are confident this series will help veterans and families. Excited to keep working diligently to share a project that does these heroes justice.

Hard-hitting interview on a recent trip to the lovely Harpster Family Farm :) They work with the amazing team at Operation Shockwave, helping veterans heal on walks with loving and curious Alpacas!

Time to cut a sizzle reel!

Our edit suite is up and we’re busy working on the sizzle reel (a 10-min cut of a film to share with streamers and distributors) for our exclusive film about the Conquistador Francisco Vázquez de Coronado discoveries happening in our own Southern Arizona backyard by renowned archaeologist Dr. Deni Seymour.

Here’s a link to an article that made its way around the Associated Press that explains a bit more.

Keeping hope alive

We know these are trying times. In the words of the amazing Mariame Kaba:

“I don’t have hope, I do hope. It’s an active process that I commit to daily.”

It’s with hope in action that we continue to challenge the status quo and share the types of films we know need to be seen.

Better together,
Frances, Nick, & Christina
