The Evie Effect | Documentary Short Film
Back in October of 2024, we were honored to be a part of The Evie Effect's annual Evie Rocks Tyler by being one of the sponsors for the event. Originally we were preparing to create a highlight from all the amazing moments and after meeting Jessica and Michael we felt the need to dive further into their story and so we collaborated with their incredible organization to produce this short documentary. This one means a lot. 💜
