Documentary program making is an area in which we truly indulge our passions as a video production company.
Company president and producer Gigi Faraci Harris states “Guided by the code of candid communication and mutual respect, Spirit of Play Video creates films that light up larger social issues by telling the stories of everyday people”.
Whether filming a child in the inner city trying to survive in a world of gang warfare, abuse and poverty, or a group of 90 something seniors singing and dancing their way young, to a quirky Aberrant, sarcastic, irreverent collage artist trying to survive selling his work on the road, Spirit of Play reveals the common and essential humanity of people, without diminishing or romanticizing their distinctive differences. Our Documentary films counter rigid viewpoints by accurately observing and representing subjects. In addition, Spirit of Play’s knowledge and cultural sensitivity allow our film subjects to be comfortable, honest and real, and that builds trust with the most important people, your audience.
We can arrange locations, actors, presenters, voice over's, props, in fact almost all the requirements of any production.
We believe in attention to detail and apply this philosophy to each and every part of the project as it is this that gives a program its own uniqueness.
We offer script writing services, complete production services and post production services which can be utilized individually or as a complete package depending on your requirements.
Spirit of Play Video develops powerful, inquiring and moving films that examines social, cultural and historical issues. Our goals are to inform and promote public dialogue on contemporary social issues and cultural perspectives through innovative uses of media, communications and community education.
As a production company we are committed to fostering dialogue and a greater understanding amongst the people of this region and to bring their stories, concerns, values and ideas to the rest of the United States and the world.
As documentary filmmakers with extensive broadcast experience, in both long and short formats, our strength is in crafting media that uses the power of positive storytelling that showcases how every life is a story, and a story can change the world.
Whether it's social p.o.v., hard science, or adventure Spirit of Play Video delivers fast paced, far reaching innovative programs.
“…dedicated to telling the stories of everyday people.”
“Look for the truth in the people, and store it in your heart. Look for the truth in yourself, and take it back to the people...”
