Communicating Soil Health Journeys: Hold Our Ground Premiere

The first two films of our new film series, “Hold Our Ground” were just released and debuted at Colorado State University (CSU) Spur on Sept. 19th. This series focuses on communicating the soil health journeys of farmers and ranchers and was produced in collaboration with the CSU Center for Science Communication.

These films are our biggest project and collaboration to date. Being able to share science in this way was made possible through the Saving Tomorrow’s Agricultural Resources (STAR) grant, and we are excited to have been able to film and produce this series.

We traveled all across the state of Colorado to connect with STAR farmers and ranchers to hear about their work and to have critical conversations about challenges, opportunities and, most importantly, foster relationships with the faces behind our food.

The “Hold Our Ground” film series seeks to use visual storytelling as a means to engage and inform both agricultural producers and the public of the importance of soil health. To learn more about this project, check out this CSU Source article.

If you’re interested in this type of project, we would love to discuss our client-focused process of producing high-quality films with you.

Hold Our Ground film series trailer premiere announcement

WUI Productions is excited to announce the trailer for the upcoming Hold Our Ground documentary film series!

What an incredible experience it was to work on the production side of this film series that focuses on farmers and ranchers in Colorado who are pioneering innovative agricultural systems to maintain one of our regions most vital resources - healthy soil.

Last summer and fall we spent weeks traveling across Colorado from Haxtun to the Ute Mountain Reservation near Cortez, multiple trips through the San Luis Valley, Olathe and Craig, all to capture the incredible stories of the women and men who work tirelessly to provide our homes with healthy fruit, vegetables, grains, and protein,

While we worked primarily as the field production crew, we also had the pleasure of working with an amazing team from the Center for Science Communication at CSU that includes our mentor, film director and producer Jaime Jacobsen, editor Hannah Tran, and research team of Rhea Maze and Field Peterson.

To see our hard work coming to fruition in this trailer is so exciting and we hope that you enjoy watching it as much as we did filming it!

Stay tuned for more updates and news on this series that we'll share as they develop.
