Documentary
Film is perhaps the most effective medium available to deliver a message. And the right message delivered in a powerful way can be perception altering—sometimes even life altering. We specialize in producing socially minded films that serve as calls to action. While the subject matter itself may range from single issue driven pieces to more broadly themed explorations, the goal remains the same: to inspire.
With a documentary, the production staff must be skilled in working with people and their environments. Only by creating an intimate, trusting environment will interview subjects truly open up their lives to a film crew. And only the most competent of teams can then capture that intimacy and realism on film.
We have assembled production crews in locations the world over. Whether filming in downtown Tokyo or the Himalaya Mountains, or closer to home in South Central LA, we endeavor to blend each location's uniqueness into a cohesive, inspiring story.

Live Performance
Our live performance projects range from large scale, multiple camera HD productions all the way down. We have established relationships with trusted vendors providing state-of-the-art jibs, dollies, digital recording equipment and postproduction facilities, all meeting the highest industry standards. Our camera operators and technicians are all working professionals based out of Los Angeles, and consistently provide superior craftsmanship.
While our company focuses on video production, we also have experience in live concert production and tour management. Our understanding of this aspect of the industry allows a level of seamless integration between our team and a band’s organization that is difficult to match. We have the ability to prep, shoot, edit, master and deliver a live performance film in three to five months.

Promotional
With our understanding of new media distribution and extensive experience in performance related production, we are uniquely positioned to create promotional material for musicians. Our directors and industry consultants will help you design a promotional project catered specifically to your organization's needs, regardless of scope.
A project we produce may consist of any combination of artist and fan interviews, live performance clips, musician bios, rehearsal and tour coverage, or anything else your organization may be interested in featuring. Depending on your goals, the finished project could be distributed across a variety of different platforms.
