Grand Rapids, MI · Full-service video
Every part of making a film, from the first conversation about what it needs to say through the final export. You can hire the whole process or just the piece you're missing.
Cameras, lighting, and direction on the day of the shoot.
Single or multi-camera coverage, interview setups, b-roll, event and on-location work. I scout the space ahead of time, bring lighting that suits it, and direct the people in front of the lens so they sound like themselves rather than like a script.
Clean, intelligible audio — the thing viewers actually notice.
Lavalier and boom capture, room treatment, multi-track recording, and a mix that holds up on a phone speaker as well as a conference-room TV. Bad audio reads as amateur faster than any picture problem, so it gets treated as a first-class part of the shoot.
Assembly, color, sound mix, titles, and delivery in every format you need.
Story-first assembly, color correction and grading, sound design, motion titles, captioning, and exports cut to the specs of wherever the piece is going — broadcast, YouTube, vertical social, or a trade-show loop.
Deciding what the film is before anyone picks up a camera.
Concepting, scripting, shot lists, storyboards, and scheduling. This is where a project is saved or lost: an afternoon spent agreeing on what the piece needs to do prevents reshoots and the kind of edit-suite rewriting that eats budgets.
Shaping the idea, the tone, and how the whole thing hangs together.
For organizations that know what they need to say but not yet how to say it. We work out the angle, the tone, and the structure together, then build the production around that rather than around whatever is easiest to shoot.
Most work falls into one of these. If yours doesn't, that's usually the interesting kind — get in touch anyway.
Longer-form, interview-driven films that let real people tell the story in their own words.
Short, sharp spots built to hold attention and land a single message — broadcast, pre-roll, or paid social.
Pieces where the form is part of the message — narrative, experimental, or purely visual.
Overview films that introduce an organization, a facility, or a program to the people who need to understand it.
No mystery, no surprise invoices. Every project runs the same four steps.
We talk about what the piece needs to accomplish, who it is for, and what it needs to cost. No charge, no obligation.
You get a concept, a shot list or storyboard, a schedule, and a fixed quote before anything is committed.
We shoot. I bring in the right crew for the job — additional camera, sound, grip — and you always know who is on set.
Edit, color, mix, and captions, with a round of revisions built in. You get final files cut for every place the piece will live.
That's normal, and it's what the first conversation is for. Describe the problem and I'll tell you what the project actually requires — even if that turns out to be less than you expected.
