Partnering with Talking Rain AQA, our team of creatives, strategists, and producers set out to execute branded storytelling in a human way. Rather than focusing solely on the product, we aimed our lens at four dynamic and unique individuals making a difference in their communities. Whether through cultural foods, somatic healing, body positivity, or bringing people together, these four personalities all have one thing in common: they serve through their purpose. Every person has a purpose—what’s yours? Services: Video & Visual Conceptualization, Art Direction, Talent Scouting, Full Production & Editing, Full Social Delivery

The dream is in the name. Liberation Ventures is building a multiracial democracy that works for all of us by making racial repair a reality in the United States. By mobilizing resources, spreading necessary narratives, and supporting their multiple partnerships, Liberation Ventures is realizing the dream within their name where reparations for Black people unlocks true belonging for us all. Last year, we worked closely with their leadership team to build out the online presence and auxiliary site for their Reparation Narratives Lab—a collective space for the field of organizations working on truth, reconciliation, and reparations to build narrative power and increase public support for racial repair. Our design and development team of creatives not only presented a full scope of visuals, but entirely constructed their web experience. The end result is a website truly reflective of not only the work, their approach, and their structure as a whole, but the purpose they are on a mission to see to fruition.

Excited to learn that we’ve won two Anthem Awards for our work with The Just Trust! Last year our team fully redesigned The Just Trust’s web presence as well as created an interactive web report and standalone docu-short telling the story of The Just Trust. Since March 2022, The Just Trust has moved over $80 million dollars to the field focusing on nationwide justice reform through education and action. We’re thrilled to take home the bronze for Human & Civil Rights—Product, Innovation, or Service and the Community Voice award for this project. Big thanks to The Anthem Awards judges and everyone for their support!

Here to be seen, Invisible is an agency dedicated to creating authentic and dynamic work that is culturally reflective of the American and Global populations. In 2022, we worked with their leadership team to update their brand identity and web experience showcasing not only the incredible work that they’ve done but what they intend to accomplish. To achieve this our multidiscplinary creative team performed a full audit and analysis of the existing brand and website, presented a refresh brand ecosystem, and completed an interactive and design forward web experience from concept to code.

The Just Trust is part of a larger story, one forged by decades of advocates championing justice reform. By scaling, aligning, and deploying funding to the field, we accelerate their momentum—from watershed legislative victories to the generations-long battles that change perceptions—across every corner of the country. Working with our incredible team of designers, directors and developers we redesigned and developed The Just Trust’s site last year. Additionally, this fall we collaborated on a full-scale video introducing people to them, how they came to be, and everything behind the incredibly important work that they do for their 2023 report.

Lots of talk these days around AI, its applications, and its long term impacts. We’re down for the discourse. But like any tool or tech, we tend to be more interested in the way we use them as people versus their inherent power. And sometimes, it isn’t that deep. That's why we teamed up with Microsoft to produce an episodic short series showcasing real people getting help from Bing AI with their day-to-day challenges. Whether it’s planning a party or setting up a workout regimen, AI can make things a little quicker and easier. See the full series on Microsoft’s YouTube Shorts channel.
