Harvey is an award-winning documentary filmmaker and social entrepreneur whose lean-forward approach to creating educational and socially conscious media is defined by seeing the world through a different lens.
For almost three decades, Harvey's media company, Captured Time Productions, has created feature length documentaries and short form projects that have captured almost 60 festival awards, including four Emmys.
Harvey and Captured Time Productions first made waves when he wrote, directed and starred in his docu-comedy, Electronic Road Film, which won an Emmy for Outstanding Entertainment Program. In 2001, he released his first feature length documentary titled Loop Dreams, a serio-comedic look at the indie filmmaking world. Loop Dreams garnered three Emmys for Outstanding Entertainment Program, Individual Achievement for Directing, and Program Writing along with the Gold World Medal for Comedy at The New York Festivals.
In 2013, Captured Time released Dislecksia: The Movie, Harvey's passion project seven years in the making. It's a documentary feature that focuses on the serious and seriously misunderstood subject of dyslexia. Harvey shares his own dyslexia story, blending humor with insights and inspirations from neuroscientists and leading experts on learning differences. The film advocates for changes in our educational and legal systems, while raising awareness around these issues and helping dyslexics avoid unneeded suffering through school and life. Dislecksia: The Movie features cameos by Billy Bob Thornton, Joe Pantoliano, Sarah Joy Brown, Stephen J. Cannell, David Boies, Barbara Corcoran, and Billy Blanks.
In 2015, Captured Time took another look at overcoming learning differences with One by One: The Teachings of Diana King. An early intervention early adopter, Ms. King is a game changing educator who shares a lifetime of wisdom, practical techniques and concrete tools for working with students, particularly those with dyslexia and other learning differences. Her step by step workflow with emphasis on motor memory and teacher engagement while working one on one opens new windows into the world of teaching differently. This film is a front row seat to a master class on best practices and is accessible and relevant for students, families and professionals in this field.
2018 presented the launch of seedling.tv, Harvey's website and media hub that expands on this educational content and mission. As the website of The Hubbell Difference Foundation, a not for profit 501(c)(3) organization, seedling.tv and Captured Time Productions works to partner with master educators, neuroscientists and cultural influencers to create evidence based educational content to give teachers, students and communities the tools and knowledge needed for today's challenging educational and social environs. Creating media that frames learning as a different experience for each person helps educate all of us.
Hubbell's 2023 film, Hopeville: How to Win the Reading Wars, is a a never-before-seen look into the challenging process of learning to read. Harvey takes a deep dive into the science of reading by accompanying a class of first grade students in Waterbury, Connecticut on their year-long journey of literacy acquisition. The film showcases inspiring success stories of communities that have embraced the latest cutting-edge methods of reading instruction. "Hopeville" is an eye-opening documentary that dismantles our current beliefs on reading and serves as a rallying cry for change.
