Through education and storytelling, they hope to encourage everyone to be a part of creating a world that accepts people living with HIV/AIDS. Synopsis: Nam is a gay Asian male of Vietnamese descent, who immigrated to San Francisco from Poland where he was raised by a Polish foster family. In Poland, he was frequently the victim of discrimination based on his race and sexual orientation, which ultimately lead to a brutal physical attack by skinheads that left him hospitalized for a week. Now living in San Francisco, Nam has found a place for himself in the gay Asian community where he volunteers his time to help educate people about safer sex and to dispel stigma around HIV and PreP. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/5b394e4370a6ad2e8ad42a8a/5b394e7d52951db7efd97b6d/1530482301568/ Banyan Tree Project: Nam https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1530482302234-6AWRGSZJZCFIQ00BGFMD/image-asset.jpeg Banyan Tree Project: Nam - Banyan Tree Project: Nam The Banyan Tree Project is a national social marketing campaign to stop HIV/AIDS-related stigma in Asian & Pacific Islander (A&PI) communities.

For the people who work at the Thinkwell Group, it’s a dream come true. Thinkwell is the mastermind behind such attractions as The Making of Harry Potter and The Jurassic Park Institute. The group also designs museum exhibits, cultural attractions, and stage sets. They describe what they do as “experience design.” Experience design combines “a lot of different disciplines to create an immersive, compelling experience that people move through,” says chief creative officer Craig Hanna. “It’s storytelling, it’s filmmaking, it’s theater.” Dave Cobb, vice president of creative development, explains Thinkwell’s approach another way. “For us, it’s about designing things where the guest is the main character,” Cobb says. “They become our protagonist. They’re also the camera. Instead of a narrator telling you a story, you’re experiencing it first hand. If you look around, you’re immersed in a story.” https://create.adobe.com/2015/7/14/theme_park_design_thinkwell_group_brings_stories_to_life.html https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1517994127987-58YC7ROQYUDU92DGQFT6/image-asset.jpeg Work - Copper Power: Fashion Designer Sadie Clayton | Adobe Create Magazine create.adobe.com/2017/5/31/copper_power_fashion_designer_sadie_clayton.html https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1529966455734-G0U6A9FOMY6CZT9VFO52/image-asset.jpeg Work - Project Aero video for Apple's 2018 WWDC So I got a message late Friday afternoon (before the Memorial Day weekend) saying we needed to create a video to play on stage at Apple's World Wide Developer's Conference, but the catch was that we had to film on Sunday, edit all week, and then deliver the final video by the next Friday.

For fans lucky enough to attend Golden State Warriors games in Oakland's Oracle Arena, April 7, 2019, was a sad day. It marked the team's last regular-season game at the Arena. In honor of the fans, on April 7 the Warriors gave out special t-shirts (designed by Oaklandish) and cheer cards (designed by Temi Coker). As Fan Night sponsors, Adobe collaborated on both projects. This is the story of that special place and those special fans. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1558329435955-V28N9VX4Y39DLCXY3XR1/p1324.png Work - Adobe Project 1324 Explainer Creative Director: Erik Espera, Adobe Producer: Kristi Highum, Adobe Design, Animation, Sound: Very True Story https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1564243445214-O8DBWRQ2SUBAOEGS1C8U/aero_thumbnail.jpg Work - Adobe MAX: AR Landscape Adobe blog post: https://theblog.adobe.com/adobe-previews-project-aero/ Additional footage provided by: Pokémon Go, Inkhunter, Ikea, Microsoft, Trigger, NBA, Mussa, Mattel, Magic Leap, The New York Times Groove Jones, EyeJack, and Keiichi Matsuda. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1564244847568-MHITMB26TARZI33T3KNF/beyondthescreen_thumbnail.jpg Work - Immersive Tech is Taking us Beyond the Screen Adobe blog post: https://theblog.adobe.com/ar-vr-voice-redefining-digital-experiences/ https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1564453126638-X2CHBC1IQXENPVPQDNRR/MakeIt_Thumbnail.jpg Work - Make it.

To mark World Tuberculosis Day 2022, the Global Fund shares Asad’s personal story of overcoming TB during the COVID-19 pandemic in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Despite the devastating impact COVID-19 has had on the fight against TB globally, Bangladesh’s National TB Control Program in partnership with the Global Fund, BRAC and other partners successfully expanded TB testing and community care. By the end of 2021 Bangladesh reached an all time high in its TB treatment coverage rate. Asad is one of the people who was reached with these vital services. https://newsdocmedia.com/podcasts daily 0.75 2019-04-05 https://newsdocmedia.com/podcasts/2019/4/4/a-shot-in-the-arm-podcast-with-ben-plumley monthly 0.5 2024-03-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/ea30f945-170e-473b-b5b4-2e56a4061901/Podcasts.gif Podcasts - Video & Audio Podcast Production - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://newsdocmedia.com/documentary daily 0.75 2019-04-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1555237976531-CE3T9I8EQTCAA0MVESSZ/nbs-2016-00001_41987482700_o.jpg Documentary https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1555237976531-CE3T9I8EQTCAA0MVESSZ/nbs-2016-00001_41987482700_o.jpg Documentary https://newsdocmedia.com/viiv-oral-history-project daily 0.75 2020-08-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1590975461374-AJCJPH0MI854BQBAJNX2/image-asset.jpeg ViiV: Oral History Project - Georgia Arnold Recorded on February 3rd, 2020 Interview transcript: MS Word | PDF https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1590975461374-AJCJPH0MI854BQBAJNX2/image-asset.jpeg ViiV: Oral History Project - Georgia Arnold Recorded on February 3rd, 2020 Interview transcript: MS Word | PDF https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1590975477136-UZRGTTB2IT11JDIOT7SD/image-asset.jpeg ViiV: Oral History Project - Sir Nick Partridge Recorded on February 3rd, 2020 Interview transcript: MS Word | PDF https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1590975496437-I8O0R8G2GMBDRLVO499I/image-asset.jpeg ViiV: Oral History Project - Shaun Mellors Recorded on February 4th, 2020 Interview transcript: MS Word | PDF https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1587618785329-7LZ9R5HVEOXTTNBI3JKF/image-asset.octet-stream ViiV: Oral History Project https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1587618899647-XJU7YWVN25CEB1UUAG75/image-asset.jpeg ViiV: Oral History Project - Peter Young Recorded on March 3rd, 2020 Interview transcript: MS Word | PDF https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1587629383016-6GS2D20O9EQEL5A3X9VU/image-asset.jpeg ViiV: Oral History Project - Julian Hussey Recorded on March 26th, 2020 Interview transcript: MS Word | PDF https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1587629529354-YG7XJ0IRI8CH10W2HOQY/image-asset.jpeg ViiV: Oral History Project - Nicky Davies Recorded on March 26th, 2020 Interview transcript: MS Word | PDF https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1590975148651-WS3YSUVVAJBJZO4PC456/image-asset.jpeg ViiV: Oral History Project - Ben Plumley Recorded on April 18th, 2020 Interview transcript: MS Word | PDF https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1598600092113-7ZWF66ZYNHO8NZRXT2TN/image-asset.jpeg ViiV: Oral History Project - Kate Thomson Recorded on May 10th, 2020 Interview transcript: MS Word | PDF https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1590974963884-Q0SWMMDXNV7Q205DXBM4/image-asset.jpeg ViiV: Oral History Project - Purnima Mane Recorded on May 13th, 2020 Interview transcript: MS Word | PDF https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1590974651246-UY2SW8NQLDGHKI9I3I7V/image-asset.jpeg ViiV: Oral History Project - Amelia Korangy Recorded on May 15th, 2020 Interview transcript: MS Word | PDF https://newsdocmedia.com/about-1 daily 0.75 2024-02-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585a53f7725e25091af37b9c/1555236914532-52LE50S2Y0Z1UD12LOUO/IMG_2758.JPG About A frame grab from Erik’s upcoming documentary about HIV/AIDS activism, The Next Big Step, was on display in the Outbreak exhibit in the Smithsonian Natural History Museum in Washington DC.
