Patrick Coyle Director of Marketing & Communications Georgetown Prep School

“We launched yesterday!! We blasted it all over FB and Instagram and the positive response has been overwhelming! Everyone loves the video and the website! We’ve had a few prospective moms in the Admission office cry after watching the video and tell her son that she’d like him to go here! Amazing job! It was such a great experience working with and I learned so much! Thank you!!”

Rachel Rodriguez, Associate Director of Marketing and Communications Army & Navy Academy

“THANK YOU. I just saw the final video for the Humanities Center. It is so moving. Thank you for taking the time to figure out how we tell (what seems to be for most people) a boring story. The film editing and music brings a sense of action and importance that humanities scholars feel (yet often can’t show in real time).  Basically, you guys rock. Period.”

Andrea Davies Associate Director Stanford Humanities Center

“I’ve worked with a lot of video people, and they tend to have a lot of attitude. Jonathan Hinman has put those stereotypes to bed. He’s so calm and easy to work with, and it’s been great. I’ve enjoyed everyone on your team.”

Patrick Coyle Director of Marketing & Communications Georgetown Prep School

“EXPLOSIVE RESULTS. As a result of this video, Drew School had its strongest admission season ever. Both inquiries and acceptances went up, necessitating the addition of seats to its incoming 9th grade class. Growth was “explosive”. People are talking about Drew in a new way, which was precisely the goal — to position Drew as a top-notch, first-choice for right-fit families.”
