Telling the Stories of Cacao Farmers
I worked with an award-winning, craft chocolate company to tell the stories of their cacao farmers.
Going beyond the the bar
International Chocolate Award winner, Nina Chocolates, is one of the few companies to pay their cacao farmers fair wages. I worked with them to produce a series of videos that highlights the people and process behind their confections.
