As we step into the second half of the year, it's time to reflect on the remarkable accomplishments and collaborations that have shaped Skald's journey so far. Through our unwavering commitment to visual storytelling and creative excellence, we have had the privilege of working with diverse organizations and achieving significant milestones. Let's dive into the highlights and success stories of our ventures.
Amplifying Social Justice: ADF and the Power of Visual Narratives
Skald embarked on a powerful collaboration with ADF (Alliance Defending Freedom), capturing their social justice campaigns through compelling videos. Working closely with filmmaker Peter Jones, creator of the "One of Nine" series, we helped ADF swiftly produce two short-form documentaries. These films shed light on injustices faced by their clients, such as the case of Father Sean Gough, a Catholic priest who faced legal battles for peacefully praying near a closed abortion facility. Our videos amplified these stories, rallying support for causes that matter.
Elevating Tennis Brands: Baseline Tennis and Sean Hodkin
Skald teamed up with Baseline Tennis, an emerging tennis brand, to design a range of sports apparel that combines style and functionality. Additionally, we collaborated with Sean Hodkin Tennis to shoot test footage for his upcoming YouTube channel, leveraging our expertise in videography to enhance his content's visual appeal.

Through striking visuals and compelling storytelling, we delivered impactful content that resonated with their target audiences.
Expanding Creative Partnerships for Lasting Impact
