About Us
Strategy & storytelling that inspires change, highlights potential solutions to complex problems, and fosters community building.
We work with mission driven companies, non-profits, foundations, and other independent filmmakers and have worked on award-winning projects large and small.
In a time when media production companies strive to present themselves online as being located worldwide, we are proud to be a rurally-based Vermont company. Though we film around the United States and beyond, we ground our work in the core Vermont values of civic engagement, commitment to the greater good, and faith in the power of all people to affect change.
Services & Process
Every project has different needs and we have experience in every aspect of modern media creation. Some projects use all the elements below, others are better served by a more a-la-carte approach: we frequently help clients take an idea from concept to completion, or jump in to spearhead one element as part of a larger team. In addition to creating videos and films we provide consultation on documentary systems & strategy, social media, and impact producing.
Strategy & Planning
Conceptual sharpening & ideation, Identifying project goals and communication strategy, budget & schedule creation.
For larger & complex projects we offer a separate stand-alone contract for strategy development, collaborating with clients to align on a clear plan long before cameras start rolling.
Production
Filming of interviews, beauty footage, recording audio.
We create a custom filming strategy & approach based on planning & pre-production that fits the overall goals, budget and schedule, this can mean working quickly with a small team or as elaborate and in-depth as needed.
Post Production
Footage, still photos, and music edited to bring a video or film project together.
Depending on the project, this is the phase that can involve collaborating with animation & motion graphics artists, music composition, and narration recording.
Impact Campaigns
Impact campaigns involve building an audience around a film or issue, and looking to translate that audience into measurable action.
Can be focused locally, regionally or nationally and can involve: grassroots audience building, social media asset creation, creating toolkits to empower collaborative change.
