Project summary
The Serious Type Production Company (https://theserioustype.org) is a nonprofit based in Carbondale, CO. They are a community of light-hearted, conscious creatives with a mission to uplift youth, in relationship with Nature through the power of authentic expression. The TST Production Company will focus on projects that are made with integrity and intention, covering all mediums; writing, film, art, and music.
In phases 1 and 2, Tech Fleet researched, designed, tested, and started developing the Serious Type (social media) responsive application.
