St. Stephens School Brand Film


This short film serves as a brand handshake for families that are considering enrolling their children in St. Stephens Episcopal School. As such it is used primarily by the admissions office for recruitment purposes. Additionally the film is designed to connect current faculty, staff, students and alumni to the values and vision of their school. In this way the film also performs as a culture and development piece. Lastly the footage gathered will be used to create shorter strategic pieces for the ongoing tactical communication needs of the school.

Take Shelter Poster

We co-created this poster (click image to enlarge) with Jeff Nichols and Sony Pictures Classics for his second feature, Take Shelter.


“The image featured…might be simple,
it nonetheless denotes some powerful
and poignant features which might take
audience by surprise.”

Online Movie Hut

“This poster has a perfectly eerie feeling
to it that captures the film’s tone…It’s a
great indie poster design, eye-catching
yet still inspired by the film itself.”
