U.S. Army SHARP: Education & Awareness Campaign
JaZzyMaE Media was honored to be subcontracted for this sensitive and important education and awareness campaign: a series of video and radio public service announcements for the U.S. Army’s Sexual Harrassment/Assault Response and Prevention program.
After a five-hour kick-off meeting with stakeholders in Washington D.C., scriptwriter Laurie Lamson and Shot Glass Films director Eric Jackson each came up with three different approaches for each piece.
They narrowed down their pool of ideas to submit and the Army choose one approach for each PSA.

Thanks to her mother – a clinical psychologist who co-founded one of the first sex clinics in the United States and later specialized in child abuse cases – Laurie has the insight and ability to gracefully handle topics some writers find too controversial, uncomfortable, or overwhelming.
“I applaud the Army for acknowledging this painful issue and seeking ways to address it and ensure the safety and well-being of our Armed Forces.”
– Laurie Lamson
Laurie’s other U.S. Army writing projects include a series of interactive educational programs for the National Museum of the U.S. Army, around the Global War on Terrorism, World War II, and the Revolutionary War.
