Allison Scholl - Principal, ACORN GROUP

“As a fundraising consultant, I work with lots of film makers to tell my clients’ stories. Ty Cooper and the team at Lifeview was professional, creative and highly skilled in bringing my client’s story to life. The original plan had to be radically altered because of the pandemic. In response, they were flexible and creative ultimately delivering a powerful product that conveyed exactly what the client asked for.”
Andrew Sneathern - Attorney at Law, US Congress Candidate, Virginia 5th District

“When I was running for the US Congress, I had to have the highest quality video work for my web site and online presence.

Ty Cooper not only delivered, he surpassed every expectation that my team and I had.”

Film Projects


America’s Darkest Future

America’s Darkest Future is a documentary addressing the haunted issue of the inaccessibility of quality early education (pre-K) in this country and provides a contrast and comparison to what’s offered in the U.S. and internationally. Most interestingly, it captures an internal look into a variety of pockets in the states where high quality pre-K is offered universally while the majority of the country goes without. Virginia Organizing serves as the film’s fiscal partner, a state-wide non-profit organization located in Charlottesville, Virginia.

The filmmakers have traveled the nation capturing interviews and a profile of the providers of quality pre-K such as CapTulsa located in Tulsa, OK. Interviews from scholars such as Robert Pianta, Dean of the Curry School of Education - University of Virginia, as well as parents, teachers, administrators, government officials, random street interviews, and others with the objective of figuring out why is high quality pre-K inaccessible to the majority of children in a country which once pride itself of equal opportunity through education.

Please contact us if you would like to make an 100% tax deductible gift to help this non-profit initiative to be completed. You may send a check made payable to Virginia Organizing and place EARLY EDUCATION DOCUMENTARY on the memo line of the check and send it to: LIFEVIEW MARKETING, 513 East Main Street, Unit #993, Charlottesville, VA 22902.
