Nothing Beats a Good Beer (Commercial)
This time, we’re throwing down for Upslope Brewing Company.
We love coffee. We love slow motion. This partnership was creamy.
In September 2019, Indevisual got the opportunity to serve as the production team for Director and Editor Rob Groulx and Agency Ascent Media at Vega Charter Academy in Aurora, CO. This school, and this story, are incredible for several reasons.
We encourage you to learn more about the organization behind the film.
While the school’s charter has been upheld for the current school year—they remain in a battle to keep it after facing public scrutiny. A seemingly unjust consequence of being one of the top performing schools in the state of Colorado.
Special thanks to Director Rob Groulx of RG Films and Ascent Media for the collaboration.
Men and Women Aim High for Mixed Doubles in Tokyo
Team USA’s Quest for Archery Gold in 2020
WORLD ARCHERY – The mixed team competition had been tested at the Youth Olympic Games and was officially introduced to the World Archery Championships in 2011.
The International Olympic Committee has announced that archery will receive a fifth medal event at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, with the recurve mixed team competition added to the existing program of men’s and women’s individual and team events.
Mixed team competition features pairs of athletes, one woman and one man, from the same nation, competing head-to-head in set system matchplay similar to the team event.
No additional athlete places will be added, the cap remaining at 128 in total (64 men and 64 women), and no additional facilities will be required. Meanwhile, the additional event, which embodies the gender balance inherent in archery as a sport and at the Games, will offer an opportunity for nations that may not have qualified the full six-athlete quota to compete for an additional medal.
Since the mixed team competition was officially introduced to the World Archery Championships at Turin 2011, six different teams have taken the nine available medals.
At Rio 2016, pairs from 24 nations would have been eligible to compete in a mixed team event.
The mixed team format was also successfully tested at both past editions of the Youth Olympic Games, first in Singapore and then in Nanjing, and will feature in Buenos Aires in 2018. This version of the event also mixes athletes of different nationalities – and has been positively received by both athletes and the International Olympic Committee.
World Archery President Prof Dr Ugur Erdener said: “The mixed team event has proved an excellent addition to international competition since its inception in 2011 and I’d like to thank IOC President Thomas Bach and my colleagues on the Executive Board for recognizing the value it brings to the Olympic Games.”
“Mixed team competition echoes the balanced nature of the sport, reflecting the 50-50 split of men and women in the archery competition at the Olympics, and the parity in level between the world’s best men and women in competition.”
“We’re also incredibly excited that archery’s athletes will have the opportunity to contest a fifth gold medal in 2020.”
Archery was featured on the Olympic Program in 1900, 1904, 1908 and 1920 before becoming a permanent fixture in 1972.
Two medals, in men’s and women’s individual competitions, were contested until 1988, when the two team events were added. Changes since then have revolved around competition format, with head-to-head matchplay beginning in 1992 and the set system introduced for individual matches in 2012 and team in 2016.
Archery at Rio 2016 recorded a 50% increase in average audience compared to London 2012, a higher-than-average approval rating among young people and 44% more social conversation than the average sport on the program.
A total of 334.4 million people watched archery on television at the last Olympic Games.

USA Archery Empowering Archers Across All Abilities with Adaptive Manual
The manual, available for free, should serve as a supplement to the existing USA Archery Level 1 Archery Instructor Certification course so that instructors may safely teach archery to students of all ages and abilities. Working with adaptive archers provides another opportunity to bring this sport to a student who may not have otherwise had the opportunity to participate. The manual is designed to illustrate how simple it is to integrate adaptive archery into an existing archery program. Using slight modifications to equipment or teaching technique, coaches and club leaders can ensure they are providing a safe and effective program where everyone can achieve success. It is our hope that the tools included in this manual will help create a safe and fun environment that inspires adaptive archers to cultivate a lifelong passion for the sport. U.S. Paralympic Head Coach Randi Smith commented: “this was a great collaboration between Disabled Sports USA and USA Archery. The manual is well done and will benefit both organizations. It will be very helpful for individuals and agencies wanting to start adaptive archery programs.” Kirk M. Bauer, J.D., Executive Director of Disabled Sports USA agreed: “Disabled Sports USA is thrilled to have partnered with USA Archery to produce the Adaptive Archery Manual. Through providing information to its member clubs and coaches across the country, this manual will play an important role in ensuring that every person, regardless of ability, has an equal opportunity to participate in archery in their community. Disabled Sports USA applauds USA Archery in being at the forefront of embracing the inclusion of adaptive athletes, which helps to set the bar for other sports agencies and governing bodies to do the same.” Para archers are welcome to compete at any USA Archery Sanctioned Event, allowing opportunities to compete against both Para and able-bodied participants. USA Archery also offers High Performance Para Archery Training Camps throughout the year with the focus of promoting athlete development and participation.

We had the pleasure of jumping into projects with 2 different and outstanding clients – Nick and Chris – who each own very different but powerful coaching practices.
Nick is a Licensed counselor, motivational speaker and advisor to youngsters making their way through high school and college. He works in tandem with parents, teachers, counselors, and other coaches to make a difference in young people’s lives at an early age. We’ve seen him deliver an engaging and encouraging keynote speech to the Colorado School Counselors Conference in Loveland, CO this October. On November 6 we’ll be shooting at his offices in Boulder and later at a highs school presentation in Denver. Needless to say, we are pumped to be teaming up with Nick to tell an inspiring story about the impact he has made with the encouraging and supportive philosophies he offers to his students and fellow advising community.
Chris is also a badass who lives to encourage others through her company Empowered Achievers. We got to help her create a short and personally inspired brand anthem video last year – which helped propel her into a new wave of premium content for her network of women in business and entrepreneurship transitions. So many people after school end up in careers that may or may not end up being what they had hoped for—so we are lucky that people like Chris are out there.
Chris specializes in coaching women into roles, careers, and personal identities that are fulfilling, rewarding, and ideal for each client she serves. See how the piece came out!
Of course, when we partner with any new client we immediately start learning about their industry. The “competition”, or in this industry’s case—the other inspiration—for creating something great in a market that is having nothing but a positive impact for the people who are utilizing these services. These are the stories we want to tell, and the types of clients we look forward to working with again in the future.
Have you worked with a coach, or considered coaching? We’d love to hear from you and learn about your experience or if you have questions, let’s try to connect you with resources that might help you along.
