Figure5 Productions
PROJECT: Consultation for film; foundation research | www.figure5.net
CONSULTATION: This New Jersey group was in pre-production for three documentary films about Ethiopians with or at risk for HIV/AIDS. They would be working with a marketing agency in Addis Ababa and wanted recommendations on how they could maximize the value of a film pretest the agency was conducting with at-risk populations in three Ethiopian cities. I reviewed the agency’s concept paper, and prepared a report that my clients were able to use as they prepared for filming.
RESEARCH: Later that year, Figure5 commissioned me for a study on grantmakers, foundations, and other funding entities with an interest in Ethiopia, HIV/AIDS, and related fields of interest.
