COULTER VIDEO
Coulter Video is a production company specializing in educational videos. Dan
Coulter has more than 20 years experience in video production and
public relations. Julie Coulter has an extensive background serving as an
advocate for people with special needs, including forming and serving
as chairperson of two parent special needs advocacy groups at the
elementary school and high school levels.
We produced our first special needs videos after our son, Drew, was
diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome (AS), a neurobiological disorder on
the high functioning end of the Autism spectrum. Drew attended mainstream school classrooms
from the time he was in elementary school.
He's benefited from numerous outside programs, including social skills
training and drama workshops. Drew graduated from St. Andrews
Presbyterian College in 2006.
Using the best
of the information we gathered to help Drew succeed, we produced two
videos on Asperger Syndrome -- while Dan was still working full time
in corporate public relations. Based on the success of these
videos -- and a love of this work -- we decided to devote full time
to our video production business. In the summer of 2003, after
our daughter, Jessie, graduated from high school, Dan left his
corporate career and we moved to Winston-Salem, N.C. to begin
production on a number of new special needs videos.
