We at ZED are big believers in the power of storytelling, so when our partners at Working Pictures sought our expertise in producing a series of panels to bridge the gap between Veterans and Civilians, we saw an opportunity to put our ideology into action.

Backbone’s mission is to create a platform that improves the lives of veterans by sharing their stories. In addition to the 10 Part documentary series by Working Pictures, we hosted virtual panels with Veterans and Civilians to facilitate conversations about the unique veteran experience and share resources that have improved their lives.

These candid amplified panels were conducted remotely during the Pandemic, connecting Silver Star recipients, football Hall of Famers, renowned behavioral therapists, a Tony Award recipient, award-winning athletes, and others to connect over their journey to healing.
