Abbott CSR Campaign

Over three years, Stephen worked with the agency Agenda to develop a series of corporate social responsibility films for Abbott Laboratories and its foundation, the Abbott Fund. He transformed their CSR reporting from a small, printed document into a cohesive web and video campaign with heartfelt, character-driven stories dramatizing the impact of their work. Stephen created over 20 documentary and marketing films shot in the States, Puerto Rico, Haiti, Tanzania, and India. The campaign involved:
• Simplifying and enhancing strategic messaging into compelling character-driven CSR storylines and scripts.
• Organizing logistics across the globe.
• Directing camera and crew and interviewing all subjects.
• Supervising post-production.

Child Nutrition In Haiti

Children in Haiti were dying of malnutrition.
