Hillsdale College
Thank You, Veterans
Service and Freedom
Hillsdale College is a private, Christian, classical liberal arts college in southern Michigan. On Veteran's Day, they wanted to show special honor to the sacrifice and commitment of veterans in the United States armed services.
Our founder created this commercial before he started Copernican, partnering with Hillsdale College and Distant Moon. Through historical recreation and cinematic footage, it captures the story of veterans who serve in peace and who risk their lives in war, in order to fulfill their oath and protect freedoms for everyday Americans.
Filmed and produced in Michigan.
