Kontent Partners — Our Way Forward

As the global pandemic began to unfold, and overwhelming implications to humanity began to manifest, virtually every sector of business was compelled to crisis-manage. Commercial film and photo production was quickly identified as high-risk, and photo & film shoots were halted. Kontent Partners (KP) preemptively invested themselves in putting together a team for researching, developing, producing, and publishing a free industry playbook, titled: “Our Way Forward — KP’s Safe Set”.

In parallel, we developed the companion document for RennKamera, KP’s automotive and motorsports subsidiary, featuring one of the very few Motocrane arm car systems in the PacNW.

Widely respected for their human-centric approach to their community and their work, we consulted and collaborated with industry organizations (SAG-AFTRA, IATSE, King County Creative, LA County Dept. of Arts & Culture, multiple creative agencies, and others), as the ramifications of the crisis unfolded, to rapidly produce a resource for sharing with our clients and amongst our peers in the industry. KP was widely recognized and applauded for being “first-on-scene” with information, and early-adaptors of pandemic-condition productions. We were proud to have made a significant contribution to the safety and security of the film & photography communities, and ultimately be a part of sustaining the industry during an incredibly difficult and dangerous time.

Writer’s note: Since 2010, I’ve had the honor of being a part of KP’s network of on-demand creative professionals, serving as the go-to senior copywriter and content consultant (as availability allows) for their internal business needs (Websites, case studies, newsletters, RFPs/Pitches, business communications, etc.) and in the editorial role for a myriad of client projects (Scriptwriting, product descriptions, marketing materials, etc.)
