Sound familiar?
A concert that brings a hall to its feet. A workshop that turns strangers into an ensemble. A reading that leaves donors in tears. The impact is live, in person and almost never captured in a way your next funder can watch.
The show closes, the season ends, and the only record is a shaky phone video from the back row.
Your development director is also running the box office, the gala and the grant calendar.
Funders read "transformative" in every application. They rarely get to watch it happen.
“We're just happy with happy production.”
Karen Dennis, Midwest Young Artists Conservatory“This pretty much blew us away.”
Lori Gruen, Freedom ReadsIn their words
Midwest Young Artists Conservatory needed films for its board and for public town hall meetings while it campaigned for a concert hall. Freedom Reads brings books and poetry into prisons and needed that work seen beyond the walls. Here is what they told us.
One artist, one Zoom call, three finished videos for your season.
What you get

For campaignsA set of films built around one goal: a new hall, a new season, a new program.
Built for the arts
We come from documentary film. Your work keeps its depth and its point of view.
Performer, student and audience releases planned before the doors open.
9:16 cuts for social plus a screening-ready master for your gala.
Shoots and edits timed to openings, season launches and giving days.
Burned-in captions plus subtitles in the languages your audiences speak.
You keep every finished file and all the raw footage.
Beyond video
Stories matter when they show up where tickets are bought and gifts are made. We deliver the pieces around the films too.


How it works
Your shows, your programs and the stories your funders keep asking about.
We record one artist over Zoom and deliver 3 finished videos, free.
A crew films your performances and workshops. Our editors cut for every channel.
Your team posts all season. Your board and funders finally see the work.



Public proof
Midwest Young Artists Conservatory serves nearly 1,000 young musicians. Our concert hall campaign films were shown to its board and at public town hall meetings, and helped build the community support to move the hall forward. For the Human Rights Foundation we filmed artists in its Art in Protest program across five cities. For Freedom Reads we film poetry and performance inside prisons, including San Quentin.

Questions
Tap a question. Each answer comes with a 20-second video.
Yes. The Zoom session and the three videos our editors cut from it cost nothing. No contract, no card, and you keep every file with no obligation to buy anything afterwards. Book your free session and see your story on screen.
Book my free session →You pick one person close to your work, and our producer interviews them live over Zoom for forty-five minutes while we record. Our editors then turn that conversation into three finished, captioned videos for your website, your social channels and your next appeal. All you have to do is show up, so book your free session.
Book my free session →Anyone whose story moves people: your director, a program lead, a volunteer, someone your program served, or a grantee overseas joining from a phone. Our producer guides every answer, so nobody needs camera experience or a script. Bring your people to a free session and we'll handle the rest.
Book my free session →More than one video. A single conversation becomes a set of edits: short vertical clips for social, a longer story for your website, a fundraising ask and captioned versions for every platform. Your free session shows you exactly what one hour can turn into.
Book my free session →Yes. Tell us your calendar, from Giving Tuesday and awareness months to galas and year-end appeals, and we plan every shoot and edit backwards from those dates. Book your free session early and your first videos are ready before the moment arrives.
Book my free session →Yes. Send us the link, whether it's a hard drive from the field, a shared folder or years of workshop recordings, and we'll cut it into new videos. Pair it with fresh interviews from your free session and your archive finally works for you.
