Believe Ltd

We're continuing our celebration of #PrideMonth with a throwback to Turtle Hill, Brooklyn, a Believe project in partnership with Will Pork Productions, released in 2001 and directed by our Co-Founder and CCO Ryan Gielen! Our passion is storytelling and we're so thankful to continue doing what we love with communities around the world, including the LGBT+ community. Synopsis: Will and Mateo invite their friends over to celebrate Will's 30th birthday. As the day progresses and the alcohol flows, things begin to get out of hand when a few uninvited guests show up to crash the party. Learn how you can watch the film at https://www.turtlehillbrooklyn.com/ #pride #happypride #turtlehillbrooklyn #film #queerfilm

Japneet - Lessons from Soap Operas

Here at Believe Limited, we have five core values: 1. We think with imagination, 2. We prepare with precision, 3. We execute with empathy, 4. We operate with integrity, and 5. We always leave room for magic ✨ As an editor, Japneet Dhaliwal knows a thing or two about making magic. Whether he’s editing a film, video, podcast, or footage from a live experience, Japneet masterfully creates a powerful end product. It’s not just magic, though — it’s a combination of his upbringing watching Indian soap operas and a lifelong love of film that has guided Japneet’s creative expression. Hear more about Japneet’s take on editing as an art form ⬇️ #believeltd #contentagency #filmmaking #editing

Japneet - Global Hemophilia Report

As an editor, you naturally learn quite a bit about the subject you’re working on. For Japneet, that meant diving into the world of bleeding disorders through Global Hemophilia Report, a podcast from BloodStream Media covering the investigations and science driving hemophilia research across the world. Japneet reflects on how when we first encounter something we can’t personally relate to, we come to realize we’re all connected by the same universal human experiences (like a shared love of Dungeons & Dragons!) that transcend barriers, health-related or otherwise. “It was just a great way to enter into the space of the hemophilia community and get an understanding through this viewpoint that I related to very personally…despite coming from a very different background.” - Japneet Dhaliwal, Editor at Believe Limited 🎧 Listen to Global Hemophilia Report and Blood of the Paladin where you get your podcasts! #believeltd #contentagency #hemophilia #bleedingdisorders

Jessica - my WOMB

In American healthcare, advocating for oneself is a high-stakes move. For medically literate mother “O”, coordinating and preparing for birth means experiencing the medical sector’s systemized and horrifically habitual dismissal of patient experience and reproductive realities. “It is really wonderful working with Believe Limited where we uplift and highlight people’s untold stories. Now, at Hall Theater, I bring this same philosophy and empower individuals to get their untold stories heard through the healing power of art.” - Jessica Richmond, Writer, Producer, Host at Believe Limited my WOMB is a solo presentation from The Hall Theater featuring the true story of birth as experienced by Olivia May, presented by Meredith Barko, and written and directed by Jessica Richmond. Learn more about The Hall Theater and its mission of providing community catharsis through theatrical storytelling and conversation: www.thehalltheater.org #believeltd #reproductivehealth #menstrualhealth #bleedingdisorders

Jessica - Menstrual Awareness

How can we normalize the fact that in any given room, somebody is probably menstruating? Why is menstruation — something many of us go through — still a largely isolating experience? “Repetition is key, so menstrual awareness is about talking about menstrual realities…and then talking more about menstrual realities.” - Jessica Richmond, Writer, Producer, Host at Believe Limited Breaking menstrual health taboos might just revolutionize period education, and FLOW host JRich (along with co-host Sarah Watson) is here for it. “FLOW - Straight Talk About Extreme Periods” is a monthly podcast produced by BloodStream Media for women with bleeding disorders, menstruating individuals who experience extreme bleeding, and those looking for more access to menstrual health information. Tune in for tips on self-study, shared discoveries, and to expand menstrual awareness. Listen wherever you get your podcasts! #believeltd #flowpodcast #bleedingdisorders #menstrualhealth

Rob - Bombardier Blood

75% of people across the globe with a bleeding disorder receive inadequate treatment or no treatment at all. “That disparity of care is pretty extreme, and so we thought highlighting that was important…and to just bring as much awareness to both what’s possible and what still needs to be done.” - Rob Bradford, Lead Producer, COO at Believe Limited Adventures of a Hemophiliac - Chris Bombardier has never let severe hemophilia stop him from climbing some of the world’s tallest mountains. In 2017, Chris partnered with lead producer Rob Bradford and the award-winning production team at Believe Limited as he set out to do the impossible: climb the Seven Summits, including Mt. Everest, as the first person with severe hemophilia. Bombardier Blood brings Chris’s inspiring and emotional saga to life, capturing his journey — and the journey of people living with a bleeding disorder everywhere — to redefine limits, overcome odds, and accomplish the impossible.

Drama - First Documentary, Pt. 2

“The fact that the school actively chose not to pick our documentary, I feel was what really pushed me to be like, ‘I’m on the right track here.’” - Drama Del Rosario, Head of Production at Believe Limited Listen to part two of Drama’s feature for more on how his first documentary unlocked a passion for filmmaking and challenging the institutional beliefs we’ve been told to accept. #believeltd #contentagency #filmmaking #documentary
