mental health story consulting
The Shift partners with conscientious filmmakers, writers, creators and execs who wish to approach the complexities of emotional and mental health themes in their stories with authenticity and care.
OUR FIRST SHIFT
In 2018, we invited a group of young people to talk about the things that mattered to them most.
This eye-opening conversation led by creator Adrienne Finch provided us with the inspiration to continuing creating content about these concerns, leading to organizations, resources and tools that could help. See for yourself - watch the original promo.
Since then, we’ve continued the conversation across multiple shows, events and social media channels to create a far-reaching shift together.
