Noah's Arc - A Recommendation Letter
Jan 20, 2025
Robert

At every school, there are bright sparks, and at WRA, in 2018, that was Noah Frato-Sweeney.

A down to earth, friendly and joyful kid flowing with creative talent. A natural performer and songwriter, with a sense of humor that crosses between boyish, mischievous, and wholesome; he shines.

Films that Create Culture - St. Bernard's School of New York

We make videos for schools. Though designed to represent culture, they also create culture. Our project with the St. Bernard’s School of New York is a wonderful example of this.

A behind-the-scenes documentary. Finally.
Aug 26, 2024
Robert

Since the dawn of The Film Guys have we said that it would be valuable to document our process, if anything to remember this unusual phase of life. Normally there just aren’t enough hands to make it happen, but in the Spring of 2024, the moment was ripe.

A New Era for TFG - Spring Intensives at Pingry
Jun 18, 2024
Robert

To give kids a big team project to work on that produces a final product that lasts forever is wonderfully rewarding for everybody involved.

There are other schools that host intensive periods, often called J-terms. At the outset of this Pingry project, we are now officially open to this model of collaboration.

Yet sometimes the California dream takes up the room. How does your real, quality, intensive academic offering balance its reputation against “California: chill out and surf“?

Know Your Audience: German Edition

When marketing to German families, we were advised to stick to the facts and leave emotion out of the equation. That’s exactly what we did. Sort of.

A Video Fit for a King
Feb 22, 2021
Robert

We typically have three days to come up with the full, completed script of a video that will meet the commandments. Three days, otherwise we make Alesi’s job much harder. Each day we take for writing takes one day from her production planning. The relationship has a perfect pressurised balance. Pressurised, indeed, because each day I don’t deliver a script is added pressure to the creative process that is already drowning in expectation.

Project Spotlight: Concordia's Musical

Robert

The proof is in the pudding as they say. As of now, enquiries and applications are up 129% and 182% respectively as compared to the previous year. Video is simply a medium. For most, it does little. For those who use it right, it will make all the difference. We’re in the business of results. If you’re going to hire a film crew, you better hope to see return on your investment.

3 Timezones, 2 Film Guys, 1 Virtual Graduation
May 30, 2020
Robert

From a production perspective, this project was beyond extraordinary. Having to coordinate so many people, describe to them how to film, how to get good sound and how to send it to us all the while not personally knowing any of the senior class and doing it between three totally different timezones was, as the cliche has now come and gone, an “unprecedented circumstance”.

Project Spotlight: Madeira Unexpected
Jan 24, 2020
Robert

I’m a filmmaker, so when I describe the things I deem fun I will quickly gravitate towards creative pursuits that involve the combination of moving images and sound. It took me a lot of years to realize that others weren’t as pumped about this as I am. Consider the fact that you’re putting educators in front of the camera to talk about pedagogy. Big surprise they’re buzzing about it, it’s literally their job. You WANT teachers who dig pedagogy, you just need to separate that from how you market to 13 year-olds.

Taking Ownership of Your Story: Salisbury Case Study
Nov 24, 2019
Robert

Everybody already knows that Salisbury is an athletic powerhouse, but what they don’t know is that it raises boys to become truly thoughtful, nice and emotionally available men. The challenge is that these points are difficult to articulate without sounding cliché or making big, hard-to-substantiate claims, so we had to figure out how to get around this.

Q&A with Omer the Admissions Guy
Jun 24, 2019
Robert

There’s a reason why companies hire spokespeople. It’s difficult to connect to the buildings or the history of a place, but a face and a person is universal. Somebody to latch on to for your mental associations is very valuable. Boarding schools tend to both literally and figuratively put up high walls, despite the fact that the funnel for families interested residential schools is shrinking. I think we should be doing everything we can to make the admissions experience as welcoming and familiar as possible.
