Vaccines have been part of a controversial conversation for quite some time. However, several unfortunate situations show why vaccines are extremely important, especially for children.
The Dalton Agency partnered with Go To Team’s St. Louis Cameraman, Sam Caravana, for the Vaccinate Your Family project.
The crew spent the day telling the story of Katie Vantornhout. Katie’s first born child Callie, passed away after catching whooping cough from a NICU nurse who was not vaccinated. This terrible incident inspired her to become an advocate for stronger vaccination laws in the state of Indiana and across the nation. The crew set up in Katie’s house in South Bend, Indiana, for an interview that highlights the dangers of not receiving important vaccinations.
We set up with a Kino Flo Diva 400 as the key light and used LED panels for fill, as well as mixing accent lights in the background. We shot the whole thing on a Canon C300. In addition to the interview, the crew shot b-roll of Katie interacting with her children. We used stick mics ensure we had quality audio for this very moving interview.
Vaccine-preventable diseases still exist in the U.S. and around the world. Learn what can you do to help protect yourself, your family and your community. If you have specific questions about vaccines, you can visit the Vaccinate Your Family website to find science-based information to help you make an informed decision about immunizations for you and your family.
Thank you to Vaccinate Your Family and the Dalton Agency for working with Go To Team on this meaningful project. We hope to work together again in the future!
