ENGAGE, ENDURE.

Direction & narration for non-profits, the arts and social enterprise.

 

The majority of content consumed by modern audiences is marketing. More and more, these messages recycle superficial social action themes and tropes lacking creative rigor. You want to build an impactful relationship with an educated, intelligent audience—but is your content undermining your goal?

Art can develop culture, grows ideas, and builds societies. Narratives help educate communities, heal divisions, and build networks of meaning for followers—but is your audience impacted to impact the world?

Your work needs partners with conceptual mastery, intellectual dexterity and cutting-edge social critiques to help it—and you—push beyond the basics of shallow market engagement. You need narrative—character, motivation, meaning—with clear, coherent direction that equips your project with the power to make a timeless impact and withstand the scrutiny of post-modern audiences.

Equip your next venture with responsible, cutting-edge vision & future-oriented content.

 

 

 

 

“Dustin works from a place of deep respect, equally mindful of the viewer and the artist, and how to channel the connection between them through the work itself. He is brilliant at shaping the written context and curating pieces to create a generative, dynamic viewing experience.”
