Out Boulder County Events
https://vimeo.com/331457896/25414395aa Fundraising events are the foundation of a grassroots organization. When we began working with Out Boulder County in 2016, they were a scrappy two-person outfit raising around $200k per year, almost entirely from community donations. Though the majority of their funding now comes from government, foundations, sponsorship, and large donors, those early events helped […]
Out Boulder County Communications
Good communications should be an above the line expense for non profits. They can drive revenue, tell stories, and become something your stakeholders look forward to as much as the Patagonia catalog. These annual reports for Out Boulder County–the first created early in generative AI’s evolution and the second after it had matured– engage the […]
Out Boulder County Branding
We begin with a rough idea of who we are and add facets until we become whole. The LGBTQ+ community is about more than a parade. While festivals and visibility are certainly a vibrant part of the LGBTQ experience, much of Out Boulder County’s work is focused on deeper, often quieter efforts. These are the […]
NYC DOE
https://vimeo.com/155439385/99371c2ff5?share=copy Teaching a most demanding audience Over 17 years, we’ve developed training in ways that bring creative, thoughtful approaches to an underserved field. For New York City’s 75,000 teachers—comparable to the population of Scranton, PA—we created an engaging framework on classroom assessment. Our interactive, asynchronous modules were structured around Charlotte Danielson’s “Framework for Teaching” and […]
Town of Nederland
89% of destination brands fail Not this one—but it was close. Dragged kicking and screaming across the finish line, this visual identity embodies everything good in Nederland, Colorado. But the process in getting here wasn’t pretty. In the end, this brand is a testament to the resilience and spirit of Nederland. It showcases the town’s […]
Microsoft
Here’s a curveball We created a targeted training program for Microsoft, focusing on vendor compliance and ethics. This training aimed to ensure vendors understood and adhered to Microsoft’s compliance standards and ethical guidelines. It covered key topics such as regulatory requirements, reporting obligations, and the importance of transparency in business dealings through interactive modules. Here’s […]
Commissioner Marta Loachamin
https://vimeo.com/1018105036/dc96a43612?share=copy Into the wind. Into the fight. Into the future. Longtime friend and collaborator Marta Loachamin would be wildly successful with or without Godot. However, during her first campaign, we made a significant impact with just-in-time messaging about the role of a County Commissioner. The videos, released just days before the primary, provided voters with […]
Eli Lilly
https://vimeo.com/71031525/8ce7e29254?share=copy Lessons in structure and compliance We went into the Eli Lilly project with low expectations, anticipating a long and dry engagement building a six-hour compliance training mandated by a billion-dollar settlement. Despite some early stumbles, our supportive and patient clients turned it into an incredible learning opportunity. Their encouragement helped us embrace a more […]
Jovita Schiffer
A loss can be a victory Jovita was outraised nearly 15-to-1, yet she captured a staggering 44% of the caucus delegates. Despite her impressive showing, the fundraising gap proved insurmountable, leading to her defeat by a qualified and well-respected opponent in the primary for Colorado Senate District 18. However, her campaign injected life and excitement […]
Ikaro Chocolate
Ceremony without pretense. The Maya and Aztecs revered cacao as a divine gift, linking it to fertility and prosperity. When cacao made its way to Europe in the 16th century, it evolved into the sweet, comforting hot chocolate we know today. Somewhere in between, Ikaro is for those who appreciate the history of drinking chocolate […]
