Common Cents: Gen

The Penny Harvest — run by the nonprofit Common Cents — is an innovative program that transforms schools, students, and teachers.

I shot a series of evocative first-person testimonials for Common Cents to convey the power of the Penny Harvest experience. In this video, Gen Berretta describes how the Penny Harvest empowers her students as writers.

You can see more of my video production for companies and nonprofits here.
