Consider the Source is a 2015 Canadian-American web series directed by Brent Hodge and produced by Morgan Spurlock, produced through Spurlock's company Warrior Poets, Hodgee Films and Disney's Maker Studios. Consider the Source examines the everyday consumer products used by the public, such as gas or water, and the journeys that those products take to get from the factories and fields to store shelves and homes. The series was released on the YouTube channel SMARTish.

Origin

In 2014, Maker Studios was bought by The Walt Disney Company for $950 million. Spurlock's SMARTish channel was one of the first brands to be launched, with Consider the Source being the first show to be released on the channel.[1] “‘Smartish’ shows will make you laugh and make you think, and I’m a real believer that if you can make someone laugh then you can make someone listen,” Spurlock said in a statement. “Through this partnership with Maker, we are going to create the premiere destination for thought provoking and entertaining original content on the world wide interwebs.”[2]

Production

The show goes from city to city across the United States and Canada to different factories, businesses and organizations to analyze the source of an everyday product. Episode 1 of the show, titled "Say Cheese", was filmed in Tillamook, Oregon and Episode 2 of the show, titled "Florida Orange Juice", was filmed in Florida.[3]
