Theo M. Moore II, Historian and Documentarian
Hiztorical Vision Productions was founded by Theo M. Moore II in 2017. Moore graduated from Troy University (main campus) in 2012 with a Bachelors of Science in History. He continued his education on the graduate level and received his Masters in Post-Secondary Education-History in 2015. Moore is currently a first year Ph.D. student at Tuskegee University focusing on education policy in Alabama.
Hiztorical Vision Productions (HVP) is a nonprofit organization that provides short film documentaries to the public. The mission of HVP is to motivate underserved communities and all demographics through the lens of African American history. HVP will display great moments in African American history that is often ignored. The purpose is to simply educate, motivate, and inspire citizens to make positive change in their communities.
It is my hope that Hiztorical Vision Productions' films educate the public on hidden but inspiring stories of communities throughout the South.
