VIDEO PROJECTS
GiveGround.TV
In 2009 OPP launched a new kind of video network. One supported by the sales of locally produced products. This reversal of the way media typically works (where media is used to sell products) allows us to produce and curate documentary shorts dealing with archaic forms of growing, cooking, doing and thinking that are experiencing a re-birth. You support the work of GiveGround everytime you purchase our Giddy Goat Cheese.

Oyster Man Mike
Official Selection at the Charleston International Film Festival 2009.
Web of Water (WOW) Video Project
This set of educational webisode videos and half-hour broadcast documentary was done in cooperation with SCETV and the Lowcountry Environmental Education Program (LEEP). OPP followed naturalist Ian Sanchez from Table Rock, SC to the Charleston Harbor (a three week adventure). In the process Ian met students, rangers, scientists and everyday folks interpreting the rivers of South Carolina.
The Web of Water documentary along with the Finding Pura Vida movie have aired on ETV, throughout 2009.

Footprints Journal: Finding Pura Vida
In April 2008 we had a documentary release of Footprints Journal: Finding Pura Vida. This DVD and "Kids with Cameras" book project was made possible thanks to our friends at The Quiksilver Foundation & Nalgene. Thanks to the volunteers at the Pura Vida No Pro, the good people & orphans from Casa de Suenos, the vision of Tim McManus, the artistry of Chuck Heilig, the management of Fuzzco, and Bill Carson for the original score

Social Dress New Orleans - 730 Days After
Video Container
Takashi Horisaki and a small team of volunteers were working 20-hour days in the 100-degree heat when OPP found them completing an art project in the Lower 9th Ward of New Orleans. Working on a largely abandoned block of the city, they worked with a mission to remind people of "what is still happening" in NOLA two years after the floods. Takashi's Blog
