CVW and CLC partner Together Again
After producing an award winning video in 2009, Creative Video once again partnered with Children’s Law Center this summer to create a video that would help change lives.  This year’s video focused on one of the programs the Children’s Law Center has to offer its clients, the Health Access Project.  

CLC’s Health Access Project is a medical-legal partnership with Children’s National Medical Center – helping poor children and their families overcome barriers to good health by holding agencies, landlords, and schools accountable for inappropriate school programs and illegal, unhealthy housing conditions.  

CLC’s Development Director, Joan Geiger Wood coordinated a list of locations that would be filmed along with interviews of clients, lawyers and doctors.  Creative Video staff Kirby Whyte, Matt Eidemiller, Sean Hovan, Ashley Caudill, Joe Brown, and freelancer Eric Bugash all worked together on-site to film the necessary footage needed to help make this video a success. The video was captured on Pansonic’s HPX500 P2 camera, in full HD resolution.   

After all the footage was logged Joan Geirger Wood and CVW’s editor Ashley Caudill worked together to cut down 6 hours of footage to a short 8 minute video of three powerful client stories explaining how the Heath Access Project has helped change their lives for the better.  The video can be seen through the Children’s Law Center website at www.childrenslawcenter.org or on Creative Video of Washington’s youtube channel:  www.youtube.com/user/CVWinc.

The video was recently shown at the Annual Children’s Law Center Gala at the Kennedy Center, where Creative Video also helped produce this event.  The video was used to raise money to help at-risk children in DC and raise awareness about CLC’s work.  

“I feel honored to help such a great organization that gives back to its community in anyway it can,” explains editor Ashley Caudill “I am so proud to help CLC”s clients tell their powerful stories”.
