Media, trust, democracy and hope are the focus of TRUSTWORTHY, a 69-minute documentary now available on Prime Video via Prime Video Direct.
Trustworthy spawned from a summer of zoom calls and a 5,300-mile bus trip across America. From small towns to urban enclaves, the documentary crew interviewed journalists, professors, other experts and everyday Americans across the political spectrum about how we got to this critical moment, how we can become better news and information consumers, and how we can come together to rise above the misinformation and discourse aimed at dividing our communities.
“This has been an amazing experience. I am so honored that Trustworthy is a part of important conversations about journalism, democracy and civic engagement,” says Stephany Zamora, Executive Producer. “It has been a privilege to hear voices from all over America, and witness 1,000’s of people who are organizing and participating in programs, non-profits, and community events to bridge the divide. The hope portrayed in Trustworthy is everywhere!”
Trustworthy was made for everyone and has screened in front of audiences young and old, red and blue, metro and rural.

Union’s Jono Griffith Brings Fans, Animal Kingdom, and a Giant Together For “Magic Sunday”
Never before have humans, animals, and other creatures so seamlessly integrated and so fondly interacted in the shared experience of Sunday football. YouTube TV's new spot, “Magic Sunday,” is exactly as advertised: a fantastic blend of humor, whimsy, and sports fandom. Originated at the YouTube Creative Studio, directed by Matthijs van Heijningen of MJZ, with VFX by The Mill, and edited by Union’s Jono Griffith, the project succeeds in part because of the team’s attention to detail (like the ram fluffing the couch cushions and the jaguar eyeing the cardinal), which playfully captures the excitement of NFL Sunday Ticket. “This one was a treat of a job,” says Griffith. “The editing involved making sure there was space and time for the animation to communicate at its best whilst deciding what would be most charming. Movie magic is a lot of fun, and it was a team effort with the guiding eye of my friend Matthijs and the experience of The Mill; the script from YouTube Creative Studio was smart and simple and had a big smile all over it, and although it was very ambitious, everyone involved aimed for the top shelf and we got it there…with the smile still intact.” The choice of “Sunday Morning” by the Velvet Underground adds a perfect touch to the light-hearted tone of the spot.
