With Hoaxed, my thinking went as follows: If you’re too good to put your soul into a piece of art and to demonstrate you want to be part of Cerno Films, then you think you’re too good for me and the people who read me. Cerno Capital is committed to providing prompt and personalised service. We will provide an indicative term sheet, outlining the framework of suggested terms for the facility, within 48 hours of receiving all relevant documentation concerning the investment or development opportunity from the client.
Co-founders Daniel Wacholder and Nick Sheridan designed a product using open-source forums online and by leveraging the capabilities of the Cerno team and facility. Ingenuity came into play with the simplicity of the design but also in creative sourcing of the materials. Professional Plastics, the plastic supplier, gave Cerno a generous discount when they found out how they were planning on using the materials. Thanks to a generous donation, Cerno was able to secure material to make approximately10,000face shields.
Cerno designed and presented the initial prototypes to practicing physicians at a local hospital who validated that the design would work. Cerno made a slight modification to extend the length of the shield to add extra protection, and a select group of Cerno employees volunteered their time and made the first 900 face shields.To date, Cerno has produced more than 3,000 face shields that have been donated to hospitals in the MemorialCare Health System (Orange County, CA and Long Beach, CA) and Mammoth Hospital (Mammoth Lakes, CA).
“Daniel spearheaded this effort, but without the help of so many people jumping in to assist, it would not have been possible. We realize that our contribution to this global crisis is small, but we hope that it inspires many more small manufacturers around the county to help where they can, and the collective effort makes a real impact,” said Bret Englander, Co-Founder of Cerno.
