GEORGE SLOAN is a writer and director. Between 2010 and 2013, George was a writer for the CBS sitcom "How I Met Your Mother" where he wrote three well-received episodes. In 2014, he returned to his directing roots, first working with the band Soft Swells on the official music video for their single "Floodlights," then directing two comedy spots, the first for the financial management company Wealthfront, the second for the Doritos "Crash the Super Bowl" campaign. George's Doritos spot "Push!" was honored by being featured in the brand's 10th anniversary highlight reel. George then turned his attention to short-form documentaries, directing an inspiring five-minute film called "Bringing Back the Light" for the Ronald McDonald House which premiered at their annual fundraising gala. Based on the strength of that film, George was hired by RCA Records to create a series of verité and behind-the-scenes videos for various artists including Tinashe, Frankie, and Grace. Lately, George has been happily bouncing between the commercial, music video and documentary world, directing a commercial for Wendy's and BuzzFeed, as well as music videos for Betty Who and Frankie.

I run a traveling production company called The Color Four and I'm a Sundance Institute Ignite Fellow. We're obsessed with telling stories that make an impact – ranchers in Nebraska standing in the path of a pipeline, resilient communities in Liberia binding together in the wake of Ebola, California farm workers fighting for basic working conditions – and we are traveling the world to find them. We especially love working with non-profits, social enterprises, start-ups, artists, grandmas, babies and goats. Whether it be a promo video, documentary piece, written ad, social media campaign or brand photography, we'll tackle your project from concept to completion. We handle all productions entirely in house – developing concepts, scriptwriting, filming and editing. We're a swift & flexible two person team so working with us is a personal experience and your voice wont get lost in the final product. Our gear is top of the line, but we travel light so we can throw ourselves into the story. We're comfortable working everywhere from the West African bush to the Alberta Tar Sands and interviewing everyone from Oscar-winning actresses to your three-year-old niece.

To help bring awareness to issues, we believe it begins with trust. This begins with our relationship with our subjects. As a team, we are creative storytellers, but we also strive to understand the essence of the story. Everyone on the team needs to be knowledgeable to the subject and able to adapt to situations that occur during documentary work. If we want to create something that can have an impact, our subjects need to have trust in us. They also need to be informed on exactly what and why we are asking them to share their stories. Our expertise is being able to capture the essence of a person. To get these storytellers to share themselves. To share their highs and lows in the utmost detail. To then be able to share that to communities where emotion is at the forefront. Imagery doesn’t need words to tell a story, images should be able to speak for themselves. An image should strike people at their hearts, and then their brains. A story of any magnitude should incite meaningful conversations and have people question their own lives and values. This is what we always aim to do with our projects.
