Your thinking. In your voice.

Hassard Fay helps corporations and other organizations shape the direction of their industries by showcasing their best and most innovative thinking through documentary-style films — from quick-turnaround talking head to tent pole multi-participant — that illuminate and explain the substantive, often complicated issues impacting their clients, customers, and partners. 

In this day and age,  after all, your prospects don't want yet more "content" (especially not the AI-generated kind). They want to know that they can trust the experts they're thinking about working with.

So . . .  show them your experts.

Ian Garrick Mason, documentary filmmaker

Raised in Prince Edward Island and now residing near Toronto, Ian Garrick Mason is a documentary & corporate filmmaker with decades of experience as a content marketer, as a strategy, governance, and technology consultant working with some of Canada's largest enterprises, and as a journalist and magazine editor.

In his personal work he has produced documentaries on architects and their ideas, film festivals, actors, painters, and photographers, and even intelligent cities; his films on urban planning philosophies and on the innovative re-use of infrastructure for parks were both featured by Canadian Architect magazine.

Ian was also the founding editor of the interview-based magazine of ideas and visual culture SCOPE, and of the journal Gravitas. He is an avid rucker and, formerly, an amateur rallycross driver.
