History
In 2011 Beau Chevassus returned from serving as the videographer aboard Mercy Ships in Sierra Leone. At this time, Mercy Ships had a media team; however, Chevassus noted the equipment, craft, and long-term commitment of conventional for-profit media studios or independent filmmakers were unaffordable for conventional non-profits.[7] This situation arose because Mercy Ships had hired Chevassus as their videographer, but they required him to raise his own support because the non-profit group could not afford a staff videographer.[8] Knok Studio was established in 2011 to meet the needs of accessibility and cinematic storytelling for non-profit organizations.[9]
