Copy writing for the documentary Hell or High Seas began over four years ago, with the Skeleton Crew Sailing website, SKS brochures, our social media handles, our Patreon Page, and our kickstarter campaign. Since the documentary has entered post production, I’ve written copy for the Hell or High Seas website, the HoHS pitch deck (visible below), and even the script for the narration of the documentary itself (due to premiere at film festivals this fall).

This project has given me versatile experience in copywriting, from grant applications, social media posts, trailers, youtube videos, and email correspondence, through to virtually every facet of copywriting imaginable. And the result, after years of work, will be a feature length documentary

Hell or High Seas follows U.S. Navy veteran Taylor Grieger and writer Stephen O’Shea as they embark on the adventure of a lifetime — sailing around Cape Horn, the world’s most treacherous ocean waters. The film is a moving portrait of a veteran using his own painful journey with PTSD to find healing for himself, and pave a smoother path for veterans returning to civilian life. Hell or High Seas is an adventure film with a deep, universal message about perseverance and hope.
