On hope, second chances, and keys: Cleveland’s story

There are some people you don’t forget. For us, his name is Cleveland. Cleveland Finch carries himself with certainty. With honesty. He’s transparent when he tells us about the 11 times he’s been to prison. His voice shakes when he talks of the 27 years he’ll never get back. He…

Going with your gut to reveal the heart of the story

Even for a digital storyteller like David Wilson, sometimes paper just makes more sense. After all of the filming and recording is done, the gear is put away, and the footage is imported, a stack of interview transcripts awaits our director of videography on the office printer. He grabs a…

Spotlight on Beats Batch, a Tigermoth Intern Production

From my desk at 515 South Elm Street, I watch a graphic designer and an intern huddle over a MacBook. Juliet Coen is not an intern from a 2000’s comedy flick. She doesn’t grab coffee or pick up dry cleaning. Instead, she’s learning in the field from the best. Last…

What I learned during my 10-week internship with Team Tigermoth

When I first started my internship I was not quite sure what to expect. I didn’t know if I would be the type of intern who goes on coffee runs or the type that actually does work. Thankfully, I have been the latter. I have gotten to work on so…

What I learned while eating a “Big Ass Burrito” with Team Tigermoth

I have completed my first few weeks as an intern at Tigermoth Creative. Each Tuesday there is a weekly staff meeting where the team grabs some lunch and goes over business and current projects. When the team orders lunch I usually say, “No, thank you, I’m good.” But, on this…

THE HAWKEYE SERIES, PART 2: OUR INTERN'S WORKSHOP WITH ACTOR ALAN ALDA GETS US ALL THINKING MORE ABOUT HOW COMMUNICATION WORKS BEST

Cooperative communication in marketing

Check out Part 1 of this series on our blog. “Alright, I’m going to have you come up, and since you were next, let’s have you as well.” Alan Alda was pointing. Right. At. Me. Though I’ve been a youth swim coach (and thus “performed” and spoken in front of…

THE HAWKEYE SERIES, PART 1: OUR INTERN'S RESPECT FOR ACTOR ALAN ALDA LEADS TO INTERESTING THOUGHTS ON THE POWER OF STORYTELLING

Through the MAS*H rabbit hole – Why stories matter

I never sought to be a writer. I wanted to be an aeronautical engineer. A pilot, a forensic anthropologist like Bones, or an investigator like Thomas Magnum and Jane Rizzoli. It wasn’t until Larry Gelbart and Alan Alda began leading me down M*A*S*H’s rabbit holes that a light flickered on.…
