The Ponzi Scheme

Other than website video production and our business stuff – Justin and I are also involved in some documentary film making. This video is something Justin cut together to promote a film we worked on with our good friend – Director Billie Mintz. We have been as close as family since we shot The Ponzi Scheme with Billie in January of 2008.

This was one of the greatest experiences of our lives. Working with an experienced director for the first time taught us many invaluable skills that are ingrained permanently in us now. Billie taught us film making skills that we find are often lacking in the corporate video world. Everyday we would be up before the sun went up to film the sunrise and we would film all the way into the dead of night. We would always eat quickly and while on the move so we wouldn’t miss anything and we learned a lot about the art of the interview by watching Billie and interviewing him ourselves.

The Ponzi Scheme is a story of a great journey Billie took in order to seek justice. Behind the scenes was the birth of our own great story. Our business was conceived here, our skills were born here and a life long friendship was created.

The Ponzi Scheme is in post-production. Enjoy this peek at it for now.
