The PLP Story
Paul is a third generation journalist and "storyteller". His grandfather was in newspapers (Scopes Monkey Trial) and his father was a radio news executive and anchor (Kennedy Dallas Motorcade and '68 Democratic Convention). For Paul, it started as a career in television news eventually as a reporter in a major television market.
That exposure from a young age taught Paul how to never lose sight of telling a good story. And with audiences today being very savvy and demanding, his authentic and compelling storytelling ability, no matter the subject, medium or venue, has never been more needed.

For the past twenty-plus years, Paul Long Productions has brought compelling and award-winning storytelling to virtually every type of communications medium. As Paul states, "It still comes down to what the story is. The best way to express it in style, words, content and pictures. Then work all of that appropriately into the right mediums to connect compellingly with the audience."
To execute simple and ambitious and groundbreaking productions, Paul Long Productions taps into a huge extended family of top professionals in the creative and technical arts. Customizing a team of people with the ideal experience and expertise for that effort.
That has been a simple and very successful approach which has exceeded expectations for large and small clients, in multi-medium campaigns, videos and events. High-concept to simple and straightforward.
EMMY AWARD WINNING PLP Documentary: A Passing of the Torch
The University of Michigan commissioned Paul Long Productions to produce an hour-long documentary looking back at the incredible circumstances, coincidences and happenings that marked the first student movement of the 60's and the formation of the Peace Corps.
It started with a short, impromptu speech by candidate John F. Kennedy to 10,000 University of Michigan students at 2:00 in the morning - a speech that challenged the students to pursue more than a career and to serve their country and the world.
Included in the documentary: Bill Moyers, Theodore Sorensen, Harris Wofford, Tom Hayden and the people who were there and made it all happen.
