What we make
Services

Shorts and features built around character, with a point of view and a plan for how they'll actually get made.
Learn more →Directing & Producing for Hire
Commissioned work with a director and a producer on your side of the table: brand films, narrative spots, short-form and series pilots.
Learn more →Music Videos
Videos that give a song a story, built with artists we've worked with before, like Jacob Luttrell's “Way Too Soon” and “Familiar Faces.”
Learn more →Development & Packaging
From a page to a package: budgets, schedules, pitch materials and the production plan investors and partners need to see.
How we work
What we believe
People first
Plot is what happens. Story is who it happens to, and what it costs them.
Imagination, with a pulse
Worlds far beyond our own, or long ago, where the people feel real.
Built to be made
Fifteen years on set taught us that a great script is also one you can shoot, schedule and finance.
Currently in production
Dallas & Allegra, a Rust Belt Romeo and Juliet, written and directed by J. Penberth Rabold and produced by Shannon Geary.
