We partnered with Dawson Memorial Baptist Church to create narrative films that played as part of their annual Christmas experience. Rather than relying solely on a traditional live performance, we helped expand the storytelling by weaving cinematic narrative films into the service itself.
Christmas gatherings are built around shared experiences, and Dawson wanted to create something that acknowledged the realities many people were carrying at the time, while still celebrating the hope and joy of the season.
We worked with members of the Dawson congregation to bring these stories to life, casting real church members as the characters within each narrative piece. This created a unique connection between the films and the live audience, allowing the congregation to see their own community reflected on screen.

French Camp Academy
French Camp Academy faces a challenge shared by many long-standing nonprofits: they do so much that it is almost impossible to explain everything they are. A school. A children's home. A town. A church. A community of people committed to helping children discover their future. Our challenge was finding a way to communicate the full spirit of French Camp in a single story.
