ON THE MENU
Our cameras and our adventure-seeking film crew of audio pros, drone ops, cinematographers, grips, gaffers, video editors, and photographers make long-form videos and films that are packaged to meet audiences where they are: social, web, community events, fundraising events, and in-person film screenings.

The Process
we keep it STREAMLINED
From start to finish, here's what it's like to work with us. No journey is the smae, but the journey is always magic!
01. WE DESIGN THE PLAN, YOU SUPPLY THE MEANS
We work with you or take the lead on research and development, location scouting, creative direction, and film scheduling.
02. lights, camera, action
Documentaries, narratives, and behind-the-scenes stories all have one thing in common: attention to detail. We make sure everything we capture is intentional, fun, and compelling.
03. post-production and distribution
We don't just make the thing, we make sure it gets seen. Social videos, trailers, film festivals, impact events, speaking, commercials, and licensing.
