Samasource Hulu Spot

Thirty second spot for San Francisco based non-profit Samasource (founded by CEO Leila Chirayath Janah). Was streamed on Hulu.com for a period of three months in 2009. Joe created Samasource's first public service announcement on Hulu with a tight budget and limited raw material (a few flipcam videos and photos) from our organization. Since it first aired in 2009, we've benefitted enormously from the visibility his video produced. Joe was a pleasure to work with. - Leila Janah, Social Entrepreneur

The documentary was an exploration of the American high school experience over the last century. We focused on Tamalpais High School, a school that had been integrated since World War II.
