This Kapor Creative project is a promotional video for REDF (The Roberts Enterprise Development Fund). REDF wanted tell the story of their organization using more of a commercial style based on a concept and script, as opposed to a documentary style which is based on interviews and b-roll images.

"Our video is fantastic, but I have to say that the true highlight of working with Eric was the process he took us through to get to the end product. He asks the right questions, knows how to plan, knows when decisions need to be made, and facilitates the entire process skillfully... He helped us define the story we wanted to tell and knew exactly how to prepare for and structure our interviews to authentically elicit the messages we wanted. Eric helped me learn as we went, making the work even more valuable."
