Project Highlight: People-First Production Model

Takes on Girls inc.
Driven by professional experiences as a producer, this producer set out to rethink the way productions are run. Through research into healthier production practices, she developed a leadership strategy rooted in 10 guiding principles. Partnering with Girls Inc., she piloted this people-first model, applying it across every phase from pre-production to post.

This framework became more than theory; it was an actionable process. By aligning each stage with the 10 solutions for ethical leadership, she created a workflow that prioritized collaboration, well-being, and creativity. Her approach shows that producing is not just about the end result. it’s about valuing the people and process that bring it to life.

Working side by side, on this two crew production team and working with this driven producer creating this body of work!

Two-person crew, people-first & hardworking driven creative all in one room!

Where every note matters, Where teamwork turns into a proud collaboration.
