Result

Worrell donated design and creative efforts to FilmAid in 2006. Worrell's passionate team of designers and engineers created a low cost and scalable solution for transporting and setting up a mobile theater system. Prior to our involvement an expensive heavy-duty truck was used and was limited to one refugee camp. Our solution allows for hundreds of mobile units to be manufactured and towed by regular SUVs and light trucks that are commonly available.

Inventive thought was given to every aspect of the screenings to keep the aid workers efficient and productive to minimize downtime in the field. This solution is one example of how design can bring joy, safety, and dignity to our fellow human beings the world over.
