EDUCATION & SUMMER CAMPS

We were approached to create a nationwide student movement. It garnered over 1.7 million views on Facebook in a few weeks and changed the landscape of advocacy on college campuses throughout the U.S.

The task was to create a short film for a Simon & Schuster book in order to jumpstart the series and increase sales. The film got a lot of traction on social media among young adults, and the book became a New York Times bestselling trilogy.

We work with some of the best private schools and summer camps in the nation to increase enrollment and donations. So far, we have grown every single school and camp that we've worked with, to make it the top institution among its competition in its field

 Partnering creatively with Shmuel was a top-notch experience from beginning to end.  He has an epic imagination when it comes to concepts and on-the-spot decision-making.  He was dedicated to meeting a tight deadline, factoring in last-minute changes. When we handed over the end product to our client, they were impressed and surprised by the creativity with which Shmuel told their story.

ABOUT

SHMUEL HOFFMAN
Director

Shmuel (pronounced Shmool, like cool) never stops innovating. He's a perfectionist. 
He has a rare combination of emotion, heart and know-how. When he studied music he became Germany's #1 violist, performing with the likes of YoYo Ma and Daniel Barenboim. Most people think of film as a visual medium, but what you don't see is what's really moving you: the sound in a film, the visual rhythm., and their interplay and counterpoint. Shmuel is the mover, the shaker, the ruckus maker. His father stood up to communism in East Germany, and from this Shmuel learned to go against the grain, despite risks of persecution. This is what makes his ideas disruptive in a world of followers. When he picks up a cause, he sees that mission through to the end, boldly. I am lucky to be the sidekick -- and disseminator of the work -- of a genius. I am also lucky that he's a dedicated and loyal husband and father. Every day, we motivate each other to do better, to love better, to live better, and to bring this world forward, starting in our own little corner.
