Request QuoteSarah Ullman is a filmmaker and activist. She is the co-founder of One Vote At A Time, a team of female filmmakers fighting for progressive causes. She directed the group's first film called "Mary's Story," to advocate for a background checks for gun purchases ballot initiative (it passed!). She is an active livestreamer, focused on protests, events, and town halls with elected officials. Sarah's livestream of Senator Harris's first town hall garnered over 123K views. Most recently, she directed and co-produced videos about gun violence for Joss Whedon’s progressive SuperPAC, Save The Day. She also directed the political comedy video #DoYourJob, which garnered 11M views and 190K shares. Sully earns her daily bread as a producer and creative consultant for companies and organizations like Nestle, Purina, Nickelodeon, Superfly, Reach Agency, SoulPancake, JASH, and The Media Impact Project.
“Blood Money” targeted Senators up for re-election in 2016 who had voted “no” on every piece of background checks legislation, sometimes as soon as 24 hours after a mass shooting. Produced for Joss Whedon’s SuperPAC Save The Day, we created five different videos targeting five different Senators and distributed the pieces to each respective state on Facebook using paid media.
#DoYourJob takes aim at Senate Republicans who refused to hold a confirmation hearing for Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland. This video about political obstructionism garnered 200K shares and over 10.5M views. Directed by Sarah Ullman; Produced by JASH, Sarah Ullman, and Vidme; Written by Bryan Cook
Mary’s Story supports Question 1, the Nevada Background Checks for Gun Purchases Initiative. Mary Inman from Elko, NV, was murdered by her ex husband, a felon who should not have owned a gun. The video pairs her story with statistics about the intersection of gun and domestic violence. It was distributed on Facebook to Nevada voters. Question 1 passed by just over 9000 votes.
I livestreamed and participated in the #NoBanNoWall protest at LAX. This video picks up in the middle of protestor "negotiations" with the police.
I livestreamed Senator Harris's first ever town hall. The Senator's official Facebook page used my livestream as the official livestream, and she shared it to her page.
