We believe in giving back and helping nonprofits tell their story. Lights, camera, and real action.

THE STORY: Creative Drill Sergeants (CDS) had an amazing mission and needed their story told. As our 2019 charitable project, we partnered with them to create a short-form documentary called "Out of Formation".

1. Clear Online Video provided full-service video production including on-location recording, hair/makeup services, and post-production editing.

2. Travel across the United States including Phoenix and Washington DC to film interviews with members, military veterans, and healthcare professionals.

3. Worked with difficult subject matter including mental health, PTSD, suicide, and military sexual trauma.

4. Worked with a music composer to create an original score for the film.

DELIVERABLES:

Short-form documentary for the CDS website and social media channels (Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn). A 60-second trailer to promote the film.

RESULTS:

Helping our military veterans with reintegration, mental health, and job placement. Raised brand awareness for CDS, official selection for the 2021 Mesa International Film Festival and the 2020 Arizona Sunburn Film Festival.
