A dynamic team of environmentally-focused civil engineers
Our team partnered with GEI Consultants in Northern California to create a dynamic series of recruiting videos for their Dams Practice. With a streamlined three-person crew, we embedded ourselves within GEI’s Sacramento-based team and traveled throughout the region, from the city to the surrounding mountain areas. The goal was to capture not just the technical expertise behind their work, but also the passion and collaboration that embodies GEI.
Over the course of several days, we filmed at some of California’s largest dams, working both on the ground and in the air to highlight the scale and impact of these critical structures. We conducted in-depth interviews with GEI’s Dams Practice team in Sacramento, giving their experts the opportunity to share their knowledge, experiences, and enthusiasm for solving complex engineering challenges. By combining these personal stories with powerful visuals of the work sites, we were able to create videos that are both informative and inspiring for future recruits.
For us, the project was as rewarding as it was visually engaging. We loved spending time outdoors in incredible landscapes, learning firsthand how dams play a vital role in California’s water management and public safety. Just as importantly, we got to know the people at GEI — their curiosity, their dedication, and their sense of teamwork— which gave the videos an authentic spirit. The result is a set of recruiting films that not only showcase the technical work but also capture the human side of what it means to be part of GEI’s Dams Practice.
