FAMILIAS EN ACCIÓN

The Project

Familias en Acción is a culturally specific organization that promotes health and wellbeing of Latino/x/e communities and families in Oregon. 

 

One of Familias en Accións’ core programs is their Climate & Health Equity program. We created a miniature documentary for the organization’s Latino Health Equity Conference, “Building Climate Resilience,” as well as promotional content, and filmed their event. We filmed with organizations across Oregon to create a highly customized story that blends interviews, archive content original animations.

Our Approach

The main driver of the piece is told through interviews showcasing 3-4 stories of people in the Latino/x/e community in Oregon and ways in which they have been affected by hotter summers, larger forest fires, pollution, drought, and other impacts caused by climate change. Media produced for Familias en Acción was also repurposed as material for continued engagement through social media platforms by the organization.

 

Our project priorities included:

  • Community education on the topic of climate change
  • Resilience through storytelling
  • Cultivate active hope
  • Encourage people to attend the upcoming conference
  • Invoke a deeper level of engagement from event attendees
  • Encourage more engagement from followers
 
We filmed for four days at multiple locations throughout Oregon. Our production staff included one fluent Spanish speaker as well. We coordinated narrative planning and interviews to use inside the short-length documentary, as well as provided original graphics and photos. The final produce included videos with English and Spanish subtitles, one 60-sec cut down version for social media, and a 30-sec event promotional video.
