MITIGATION AND CLEMENCY VIDEOS

We produce 15-25 minute mitigation videos for capital and non-capital cases around the U.S. These videos can be produced for the public, judges, DA’s, the Governor, the Court of Criminal Appeals, or throughout any stage of advocacy. Our videos seek reduced sentences, redirection to mental health services, Clemency, stays from execution, and more. These videos draw upon interviews with clients, experts, loved ones, and mentors to craft the strongest mitigation story possible, from childhood to present day. Working with mitigation specialists, we incorporate a client’s researched social history into a video narrative with photo archive, while emphasizing resilience and community in their present day lives. We have an experienced and sensitive team that recognizes the enormous courage of those who appear on camera to help their loved one. This work involves people opening their lives to us, and we never lose sight of that in our process.

PHOTOGRAPHY

Photographs can help bring a client’s story to life, enhancing written narrative or assisting in media campaigns. This option is suitable for quick turn arounds or where a written mitigation narrative is centered. It is another way to visually enhance a client’s story without the extensive commitment of video production.

ORGINAZATIONAL COMMUNICATIONS

We partner with civil rights organizations doing work in justice reform, helping produce short form documentaries for their communications outlets. This could look like a short form documentary raising awareness about a certain issue the organization wants to educate the public on, mission statement videos, or mini-docs to be shared on social media.
