In this Film Courage podcast, we speak with husband and wife duo, Jason Gerber and Blue Gerber, a co-directing team working in films and commercials together and individually. Their first feature documentary is DAWN DUSK, available on multiple platforms (link below).
DAWN DUSK features Chelli Look, an artist specializing in handbags, experiences overwhelming grief after the murder of her sister by her brother-in-law. In the years that follow, Chelli’s journey towards healing forces her to rediscover who she is as an artist, leading to an unexpected revelation that takes her in a new direction.
They have directed commercials for brands such as Walgreens, 7UP, Scotch-Brite, Meiomi Wine, Chipotle, Intelligentsia, LOEWE and more. Their heart for storytelling can be seen in their work for The Boys & Girls Clubs, GE Girls, Athletes Unlimited, Lincoln Park Community Services, which won a Silver Telly, as well as piece for Chicago Connected which was shared by President Barack Obama. Their most recent short film, Otis’ Dream, about voter suppression, debuted during the months leading up to the 2020 election and was shared by Oprah as an official Super Soul Sunday short film, gaining attention from major media outlets.
Female and male, tactful and feeling, they evoke imagination and authentic human narratives directing as one voice.
