Youth of the Year // Candidate Profile Video

Posted at h in Non-Profit Video

We have worked with Chicago-based nonprofit, Boys & Girls Clubs of Chicago for several years on their Youth of the Year program.

Each year, several students are chosen as leaders at their specific club. Those students then go on to compete for the Youth of the Year title. As part of the competition, candidates write several essays. We knew this video was going to profile the candidates in some way. In thinking about the treatment for this particular video, we started reading through those essays and found some very powerful statements. We got to thinking…what if we combine those statements into a story? …and that’s exactly what happened.

Over the course of four days, we traveled to the organization’s clubs and filmed the candidates reciting their statements to the camera. All of their words were combined and presented to a live audience of over 900 people at Navy Pier.

Ox box // Website Branding Film

Posted at h in Corporate Video


Ox Box is a manufacturer of specialty shipping and storage containers. They recently hired us to produce a case study video about a project they were working on in the Southern Atlantic Ocean. While filming that project, they also wanted us to produce a branding film for the company’s website.
Ox Box has an interesting history. The company started in the 1940’s. During World War II, they were making wood boxes for the military. We wanted to communicate all of that in the company’s story. We were able to film inside of their warehouse and capture some creative angles of the manufacturing process. All of the footage and sound were combined to tell a story about the company. We also worked on setting up the company’s YouTube channel for future video content.
