What We Do
We create powerful, story-driven videos that inspire audiences and make a lasting impression.

Stories that Grab You — And Don’t Let Go
“People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
— Maya Angelou
how we work
Whether creating documentaries for public television or videos for commercial clients and nonprofits, our guiding intent is always to make people feel something. To see things in a new light. To care about issues outside their daily lives. Our modern world is awash in media, and getting audiences to really care about the story you want to tell is no small task.
Our process for creating emotionally impactful videos has evolved through years of experience and learning what truly delivers. We start with an initial meeting and a simple worksheet to get a concrete sense of your goals. We define the scope and budget for your project and deliver a detailed proposal before getting into the fun stuff: creating scripts and storyboards; interviewing, casting, and filming; and bringing your project to life in editing and post-production.
The first step is just an email away.
