WE BElieve in your message

We believe what you communicate to your target audience should be the very nature of who you are as a company or organization.  Your message is important and needs to be heard.  We understand how vital your message is.  With years of experience in the business and non-profit world, we offer fresh concepts that communicate your ideas with originality. 

Pre-Production

Every video project begins with a detailed plan.  We work with you to fully realize your concept and bring your ideas to life. We offer creative direction, brainstorming, storyboarding, script writing and location and talent scouting.

Production

We tell emotionally compelling visual stories by capturing light and shadow. Our team can work from your shooting scripts and storyboards or develop them based on your needs.  We are available to direct shoots, or work under the direction of the client when needed.

Post-Production

All projects require a balance of planning, execution and preparation for final delivery. We offer a full suite of post production services including logging, editing, motion graphics, audio editing, visual effects and color grading.   

Travel

Film and video production is a highly specialized skill. When combined with the rigors and challenges of travel, remote production requires a greater level of experience to work around the country or around the world. We have worked in over 20 countries and understand the intricacies of shooting remotely.
