For Public Institutions

Public trust starts with transparent storytelling

Professional video, photo, and podcast production for government agencies, school districts, public health departments, and civic organizations.

The challenge

Your institution serves the public. But the public doesn’t see the work.

Government agencies, school districts, and public institutions produce tremendous value — but the storytelling is fragmented. Different departments hire different vendors, quality varies wildly, and nothing connects into a coherent institutional voice. The result: inconsistent content that undersells your impact.

The opportunity

One contract. Every department. Consistent storytelling.

Creative Blocks let you allocate professional production across departments, programs, and initiatives. Parks, public health, education, transportation — each gets access to the same quality production team through a single vendor relationship with predictable pricing.

Creative Blocks

Every format your institution needs — one contract

Each Creative Block is $1K of professional production you can allocate across departments, programs, and content types. One vendor, one procurement process, consistent quality institution-wide.
