Authentic Films

Authentic Films is a film production company based in Cleveland. The company was founded and is owned by married couple Kate O'Neil and Kevin Kerwin.[1] O'Neil is the producer of Authentic Films and Kerwin, who has a masters degree in film from Columbia University, is the director.[2] Working as a married couple is easy for them as O'Neil relates "because our roles are drastically different."[1] Authentic Films create the trailers for the Cleveland International Film Festival (CIFF).[3]

Critical reception

Authentic Films received praise from SHOOT for their 2008 campaign for the Akron Children's Hospital which focused on cancer patients who were being treated at the hospital.[4] The 2008 ad campaign was called "moving," and a 2009 follow-up built on the success of the first series of ads for the hospital.[5]
