Sponsored by the United Nations, “Taking Down Giants”, the Feature documentary, highlights powerful women from around the globe, doing extraordinary things for the good of the Planet. Tackling issues that concern us all. Change-makers in a seemingly ordinary world. Women living their dreams, full force, and not taking no for an answer. Scientists, Inventors, Artists, Organic Farmers, Downhill Mountain bikers, Marine Biologists, and a cast of other planet-changers. Women who are not afraid to speak up. I have chosen a cast of all women Cinematographers, including myself, to unveil the different stories, to create a true collaboration project from start to finish.

Included in the project, will be a Music Video for the theme song “Let It Be Said”

(Music Video treatment and Top budget sheet available upon request).

We live in a world that has been for years, even decades, geared towards catering to men and living in the mindset that we “Can’t” as women. We are not strong enough, not intelligent enough, not creative enough, and persuaded by the many forces of the old paradigm, to stuff our dreams, aspirations and our opinions into the wild blue yonder from whence they came. Our mission is to turn those false perceptions around and to show young girls that whatever they dream, they have not only the opportunity, but the will power and the vision to become just that. We will interview and comprise a collection of positive role models and change-makers into an arena for good.

We will show young girls that they do exist, the stories of their visions, and how they came to make them a reality in the physical world. That they too can have a vision and bring it into existence despite what they have been fed by media and the male-dominated world, Using imagery and some sections of animation along with cut-in's of actual interviews, we will highlight various women telling their stories of overcoming and showing them in their element.

The goal is to create a Global platform and call to action, Impact strategies and social good for the Big issues, such as Climate Change, Food supply and Agriculture, Science and Stem, Sustainable Housing (Eco-building options), and Key note speeches and discussions around the world that inspire creative solutions and changes that can be made to our perception of what a Woman is in “Woman’s” world.

We are here to change the conversation and shift the Paradigm. Won’t you join us?
