We have spent the last year in production on a brand film that documents the creation of this 33,000 sq ft mural in Winston-Salem, one of the largest single-surface art installations in North Carolina.

Capturing something of this massive scale, alongside the artists and the community, through every season, has been incredible. We’re in post now, with just a couple more shoot days left. Excited to share more soon.

In collaboration with artists Leo Rucker & Joey Allen

Huge thanks to all involved!
