Client

Second Harvest Food Bank of Orange County is one of the largest of it’s kind in all of Southern California providing dignified, equitable & consistent access to nutritious food, creating a foundation for community health.

What did they want to do?

Within weeks of the shutdowns of the Covid 19 pandemic, Second Harvest engaged Setter Studios to begin to document their story as they began weekly food distributions to more than 5000 cars every Saturday at the Honda Center. After spending countless days capturing interviews, b-roll footage, helicopter aerials and more, we produced weekly mini-documentary videos on an incredibly fast-pace. That was the beginning of an incredible relationship with Second Harvest that has led to more than 50 videos and we continue to be their trusted video partner to this day.

How did Setter Studios Help?

Brandon and Jess (and our crew) have spent the past several years working extremely closely with Second Harvest. We’ve been their integral video partner capturing testimonial stories, b-roll of programs and food distributions, capturing events and milestones, even being there for the very first day of launching their Orange County Harvest Solutions Farm, and producing their annual fundraiser called No Lunch Lunch. This incredible partnership gave us the opportunity to gather a huge library of footage that culminated in the idea of creating a 20 minute documentary film for their 40th anniversary featured below. Comprised of more than 20 interviews and visualized through the massive library of b-roll footage we gathered from countless projects since 2020, we had everything we needed to create a masterpiece film.
