JTWO PARTNERS WITH HOOPS IN THE HOOD

JTWO PARTNERS WITH HOOPS IN THE HOOD


PROJECT DETAILS

JTWO partners with Hoops in the Hood, LISC Chicago, and Walmart once again to bring two more shorts on the kids in the program.  Hoops in the Hood is a program that provides a safe place for kids to play basketball and engage in other organized activities with caring adults and their peers. 

A few months ago, we traveled to Chicago to film these inspiring stories of basketball and community. We are honored to have the opportunity to capture the impact of the Hoops in the Hood program on the lives of young people in the city. “Basketball Saved Me” and “I’m Free” tell the stories of Apple G. and Devon F. within the Hoops program as they find discipline, focus, and a supportive community in which they can thrive. 

We are excited to finally release these videos and share the stories of Apple and Devon with the world. We hope that these videos will inspire others to support the important work that Hoops in the Hood is doing in Chicago and beyond. We would like to thank LISC Chicago, Walmart, and all the amazing people to make the program possible, for allowing us to be a part of this project. We are excited to see the impact these videos will have in the community.

Cleaning-Is-Caring

Jtwo collaborates with agency BRG Communications


PROJECT DETAILS

BRG Communications out of Alexandria Virginia came to us about producing a couple of projects for the American Cleaning Institute (ACI). The first one we produced is a national PSA for TV. This was created for ACI’s new campaign titled, “Cleaning is Caring” to communicate the value of cleaning in today’s society as a way to protect one another from the spread of illness and encourage consumers to maintain proper cleaning behaviors adopted during the pandemic. We worked hand in hand with BRG Communications to make sure the project brought the awareness that ACI was looking for to spread the new campaign across the US.

The Second project entailed our animation team creating a whiteboard animation for ACI’s “Packets Up!” initiative. This animation was driven by the theme of bringing awareness on liquid laundry packet safety not only to adults but for young kids as well. It is a light-hearted animation detailing that proper storage and use of all cleaning products is a daily practice that can help prevent accidents in the home.

BEHIND THE SCENES


Mighty-Ira-Documentary-Poster

JTWO Collaborates with FIRE on Mighty Ira Documentary


We recently partnered with The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) to assist in the post production process for their feature length documentary, Mighty IraBased on the life of Ira Glasser, the former executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union, this film chronicles his life story and the events surrounding the ACLU when a party of Neo Nazis decided to march on Skokie, Illinois to protest the desegregation of their neighborhoods. Part of the Projects That Matter initiative, the Mighty Ira documentary raises the question: Does the first amendment of the United States constitution protect the free speech of hate groups such as Nazis? Such a complex question requires an even more complex answer, one which Ira Glasser and other ACLU members beautifully articulate throughout the length of the film. Featuring interviews from lawyers, activists, and holocaust survivors, this film is sure to inspire questions about liberty, protest, and individual rights.

 

Mighty Ira can be found streaming on Amazon Prime, iTunes, Google Play, and YouTube Movies and is coming soon to Blu-ray DVD.

JTWO Premieres TV Show on Discovery Channel


We recently premiered the TV Show, Life Aid: A Story of Hope on the Discovery Channel, Science Channel, and American Heroes Channel. In partnership with Al Roker Entertainment and the Life Aid Research Institute, production began before the COVID-19 pandemic hit the United States, while the post production was completed remotely from our editors’ homes. The special follows the story of several veterans and first responders, as well as their struggles with PTSD, depression, and thoughts of suicide. Abandoned by the country for which they sacrificed so much,  many of these heroes and their families felt that hope wasn’t even a possibility. But thanks to Life Aid, they now have a reason to believe in a better future. With access to neurological healthcare and many different mental health services, recovery isn’t just a dream anymore.

This project is very sentimental to our crew. In addition to being our first full length television feature, our team believed this was a story that needed to be shared. We are grateful for the opportunity to help give our service members a voice on a national stage. During production, we were able to film many incredible interviews that gave our crew new perspectives on sacrifice, pain, and the human spirit. We hope that this story will inspire you as much as it inspired us.

We were happy to premiere this special on the Discovery channel and its sister stations Science Channel and American Heroes Channel. Director Justin Jarrett states, “…growing up I always loved Discovery and early on it was actually a dream of mine to work for the network as a young filmmaker, so it’s been fun watching everything come full circle, especially on a project that I so deeply care about.”
