Northwest Kidney Centers

- 2018 Breakfast of Hope Video -

We recently produced a video for the Northwest Kidney Center’s annual Breakfast of Hope fundraising event. The video shares the story of Owen Applequist, a two-time kidney transplant recipient who hasn’t let kidney disease stop him from living an active life. Owen’s story is so inspiring—he made our job easy!

It was also important for us to highlight the amazing work that Northwest Kidney Centers does for kidney patients like Owen. We were thrilled to hear that the event raised $346,000 for kidney education and care.

Camp Gallagher

- Summer Camp Brochure Copy & Design -

We recently designed a new brochure for Camp Gallagher, featuring their variety of camping programs for teens and families. We also designed a 2018-specific insert that lists the upcoming summer's session dates and rates. This ensures the brochures stay "evergreen" and relevant for many summers to come.

For these print materials, it was important that we captured the joy of summer camp while highlighting Camp Gallagher's incredible natural beauty. Retro fonts and camper-drawn icons help add that summer camp feel.

It was an honor to produce the video for Northwest Kidney Centers' 2017 Discovery Gala. The focus of the video was the groundbreaking kidney-on-a-chip research platform and its upcoming voyage to the International Space Station.

Center for Dialysis Innovation

- Patient Story Videos -

We recently completed five patient story videos for the Center for Dialysis Innovation. Each video features a kidney patient and, using their own words, reveals why it's so important for researchers to find a better way of doing dialysis.

The videos show the real-life impact of kidney disease and present dialysis as an imperfect treatment. They'll be used by the CDI to encourage donations and help secure grant funding for their very worthy mission.
