We've worked with Genesys Works - Twin Cities for a few years and this year partnered with their national office to create a corporate recruiting video designed to engage companies looking to make a real impact through workforce development.

By connecting corporate partners with emerging talent, Genesys Works is building stronger futures for students and for business.

Such a pleasure to meet all of these young professionals as well as one of the corporate partners in MN, Land O'Lakes, Inc.!

A reminder on this Giving Tuesday: In nonprofit fundraising, decisions don’t start with logic, they start with feeling.

Before someone chooses to donate, volunteer, advocate, or purchase, something has to touch their 🩷 first.

This ⬆️ is why video storytelling is one of the most powerful tools a mission-driven organization can invest in. Video doesn’t just inform, it immerses. It puts viewers inside the story, introduces them to real people, and allows emotion to do the work that facts alone cannot.

When supporters feel the impact, they want to become part of it.

If your nonprofit is looking to inspire action, deepen connection, or elevate a campaign, consider leading with the stories that move people most.

Because when emotion builds the bridge, generosity follows.

🥂 Cheers to all the meaningful nonprofits in Minnesota during this season of giving!

Storyboard Films has worked with hundreds of nonprofits and would love to meet you in 2026, so if video is on your marketing to-do list, let's connect!

Case Study: Tech Testimonials on Video

Capturing real people sharing their insight stands out -especially in our AI-infused daily content.

Tech stories can sound full of jargon and features no one feels. But what happens when you swap the specs for storytelling?

Storyboard Films crew recently worked with a software company, ECI Software Solutions and their client, Silver Spring Foods, Inc. to turn customer experiences into cinematic mini-stories. These videos can make any brand feel human, relatable, and unforgettable. We created 4 feature videos and 8 short clips like this for this client.
