- "The People's House: The Story of the Oklahoma State Capitol" is a short documentary showcasing the long history and significance of the State Capitol building. The film showcases the rich history of the building: the controversy of Guthrie vs. Oklahoma City, the building of the original structure, the city sprouting up around the Capitol, and, of course, the eight year renovation that was just completed. The film will showcase some of the best of Oklahoma with its admiration for art, its beloved legendary sons and daughters, and its distinctive unwavering voice. The art that hangs in her halls will be detailed, the great Oklahomans who have laid in repose will be examined, and with each we will see how every corner and crevice of the State Capitol was constructed to uplift Oklahomans and uphold their values.
- As Colorado College was approaching its 100th anniversary, the faculty made a decision to not just celebrate their past but to change things. They came up with the simple, but radical, idea that students learned more effectively, when they took one-and only one-class at a time. Not only did they figure out how it could be done, they managed to actually do it. And more amazing still, it's still with us today, fifty years later. This film looks back on the past and the founding of the Block Plan, but also on its present, what it's become, and what it means to the faculty, students, and staff who live it every day.
- Spanning from the 1860's through today, the Houser/Haozous story is a journey exploring the incarceration of a people, growth brought on by freedom, and a family's personal expression of these experiences through art.

These shared memories molded his artwork, and in turn helped him become one of the 20th Century's most important artists. Allan then passed these same family experiences down to his own sons who are fulfilling their destinies as the next generation of Native American artists. In the end, the American Dream is alive in the strength of this one Apache family's legacy.
