Nick Bruns's Company Details
Gail Willumsen and Jill Shinefield first worked together a few decades ago at the Los Angeles offices of National Geographic Television. Different interests had led them there – Jill's obsession with nature films and Jane Goodall; Gail's fascination with archaeology and prehistory. Working at Nat Geo was a dream come true for Gail and Jill because they embraced the Society's mission: to support exploration and inspire people to care about the world. They also wanted to travel the world – and they did, producing shows on wildlife in the Holy Land, Kodiak bears, mummies and volcanoes. After a few years they decided to start their own production company, Gemini Productions and went on to earn a Peabody, three Emmy awards, and many other accolades.In some sense, all of Gemini's films celebrate individuals who are trying to make the world a better place. Gail and Jill have filmed wildlife conservationists (including Jane Goodall and Jacques Cousteau), medical researchers and astrophysicists (including several Nobel laureates), as well as community health workers, educators and transgender rights activists. Gemini Productions champions the heroes who further our knowledge and understanding, and make us smarter and more compassionate to each other.
