OUR APPROACH

Our productions come in all shapes and sizes. We’ll start with a conversation about your broader marketing and communications strategy to help us fully understand the role video plays within your work.

We know it’s a big commitment to spend money on video. Whether we collaborate on a one-day event or a year-long documentary project, we design productions to meet your unique communications goals. Every step of the way, we will work together to maximize your resources.

The organizations we work with are helping change communities, cities, and society for the better. We’re invested in telling your stories.

HOW WE WORK

Conversation: Before embarking on any project, we work to understand your mission and the people you serve. Time spent in deep conversation with you and your community helps us ensure that your story will be told effectively.

Pre-Production: After defining the goals of the project and getting to know you, we focus on planning. We work with you on a customized production kit that lays out all the details of the work before it happens, whether it’s a live event or a documentary video.

Production: When we’re filming, we work hard to establish trust with the people and communities you work with. We bring together the right team of creative professionals that make you and your stakeholders look and sound great, so you can focus on telling your story.

Post-Production: Our client’s mission is our north star. Seamlessly combining community and expert voices with a beautiful visual narrative, we craft an emotionally resonant video that moves audiences to action.
