We had the privilege to work with the Wisconsin Department of Corrections producing a series of recruitment videos. Besides the arduous task of checking in all the equipment we needed for our shoots we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Wouldn’t want to live there but found a new respect. Never felt threatened or even concerned, just amazed to learn that each facility is almost a self contained city. Working in corrections is not what most people initially think, everyone we talked with loves it and has a great career.
