Natalie did a great job helping our organization highlight what we do best. As a result of her interviewing and editing skills, she was able to capture the essence of our organization, what we do and the services we offer. Our clients have responded positively to our video blogs and this has helped with our image and marketing. Natalie is highly professional and efficient.
Susan Robertson, Founder & Managing Partner, Stop At Nothing
Natalie and her team filmed our donors, sponsors and volunteers at the PGA TOUR Bike MS “Cycle to the Shore” ride. The video she produced for us seamlessly weaves in footage, interviews, graphics and music to tell the story and capture the excitement of our largest fundraising event. We are using it to engage and bring on new sponsors and participants for our upcoming 25th anniversary ride. The video is proving to be a great and unique way to generate excitement for our event, communicate our mission, and continue to build relationships with our corporate neighbors in Jacksonville. Natalie was professional, creative and a pleasure to work with!

Everyone has a story. Natalie Halpern helped me to define and communicate my story. Through her thorough probing, challenging, insights, sensitivity, empathy, precision and pure creativity, she helped me to define my story, who I am, and communicate that message in a concise and compelling video. The experience, process and product are all pure delight to me.

Bravo! Nicely done, visually illuminating and clear first hand narrative, which I know took some doing … makes me want to get one of his extraordinary sculptures!
Mike Buday, Executive Producer, GTOO Media
Beautifully done! You have an innate sensitivity and empathy to the person/subject you’re portraying — which makes the final product so successful.

Your film, “Piotr Szewcyzk: The Passion Behind the Music,” really shows how talented and creative you are both in telling a story with passion and making it visually engaging!

Natalie demonstrates an innate and keen sense of how to reach and engage various populations. She possesses a special talent in writing, video production and storytelling.

I’ve watched “Africa’s Daughters” twice now. It’s such a powerful documentary; I could watch it over and over again. Having grown up and been educated in East African villages, your documentaries trigger memories of life and the plight of the girl child in the villages. Sometimes I can’t help holding down tears, since this is the reality even in my own home and neighborhood in Western Kenya. Thanks for your dedication and your work in highlighting the struggles of girls and other children in Africa, who possess great potential but do not have opportunities.

“Tumaini Letu” (Our Hope)
The film was a game changer. It has provided us with an opportunity to show our funders, first-hand what we do. For example, our new client and the person involved in selecting the NIAID contractor at the National Institutes of Health stopped at our booth in Toronto. I got her to stop and watch the film. She remarked that she did not realized that we were an implementer and how she was surprised at the depth and breadth of our program implementation.
Frank Beadle de Palomo, Senior Vice President and Director, AED Center on AIDS and Community Health
It’s very impressive, moving, vivid, powerful. Even though I’ve spoken to several people at AED about your work, this film made me truly understand the nature and impact of what you do.
John Shaw, Reporter, The Washington Diplomat
Wonderful, particularly because it shows something working in HIV and Africa.
Bill Smith, Executive Vice President, AED
