Client Overview: The Jewish Museum
We've collaborated with the Jewish Museum since 2016 on a wide range of content. From exhibition films and bespoke promo clips, to original ASL video programming, to artist exhibition films, to an ongoing educational series exploring the present-day resonance of important pieces from the museum’s collection.
Selected Films
Artists’ Voices: Fred Terna
In 2022, we had the great privilege of visiting the Brooklyn home and studio of painter and Holocaust survivor Fred Terna. This film is a dual profile of Fred and his son, Daniel, also an artist, whose work often deals with his father’s life and legacy as a survivor.
Sadly, Fred passed away in 2023 just one year after the production of this film, making his urgent message all the more profound.

Exhibtion Films
This recent series we produced with artist Trenton Doyle Hancock takes viewers inside the exhibition Draw Them In, Paint Them Out, in which the artist displays his own work in dialogue with the work of artist Philip Guston. We had the opportunity to interview Doyle Hancock amidst his work and probe how both he and Guston mine fraught and controversial imagery to confront issues of hate, racism, and evil, while still approaching their work with levity and humor.
