What We Do

“There is nothing worse than a sharp image of a fuzzy concept.”

Ansel Adams

STRATEGY

What story to tell, when to tell it, and knowing how it serves your organizational narrative and objectives are critical questions to ask. We look at the near and long-term, from a bird’s-eye perspective to an on-the-ground view to develop a narrative strategy that is cohesive, effective and efficient.

DEVELOPMENT

Knowing your story and communicating it clearly are critical components for brand engagement and allegiance. We express and strengthen identity though development of cohesive narrative and story.  Our work supports brands, products, services, online or in-person use, and near or long-term engagement strategies.

DESIGN

Design is key to telling your story beautifully and effectively. It’s where intent and content meet and hit the road heading for success. There are countless paths to take from traditional to trail blazing. We help you to analyze the options, make the right choices,  and then expertly craft each component.

VIDEO & MULTIMEDIA

Video storytelling is powerful. It’s an opportunity to take your audience where they’ve never been, let them walk in someone else’s shoes, and feel the the impact of your work. The language of film takes viewers through a range of emotions making information and ideas deeply meaningful in unforgettable ways.

A paragraph or two describing this service area and what it means to clients. How do we do what we do in this area and what about that is different or unique to us. What is the return on their investment for working with us. How does our work in this area stand out and what are some examples of what we do-actual deliverables.

The Big Picture

The view from up here is great!

For each project, no matter the scale or degree of complexity, finding the view that let’s us see all of it and the surrounding context is key. Being able to see how all the pieces lay out, finding conflicts and gaps, and identifying existing relationships and opportunities helps to steer the project in the best direction and guide ground-level decisions.

The Details

Narrative is more than the sum of it’s parts.

But only as strong as it’s weakest link. To craft the strongest narrative each of its stories must be looked at individually to test for clarity, durability, relevance, and engagement potential. This attention to detail ensures every component of your narrative succeeds on its own and is doing it’s part to advance the goals of the big picture.

Creating Meaning

More than facts and figures.

Making an impression is cool, creating meaning is real. A successful narrative is a differentiator that communicates a brand’s value by establishing and building meaning in the hearts and minds of its audience.

Deep Understanding

Looking beyond the surface.

Our way of crafting a meaningful narrative starts with learning who you are and what you believe in. We want to discover what makes you significant, unique, and vital to everyone who knows your brand, and communicate that value and impact to everyone.

Story Balance

You are many stories.

Strong narrative is more than a single story. It is weaving many stories together. Stories that come and go, that set up, underscore, run in parallel or in sequence. To get an idea of how this works, think of all the story lines working together to keep you interested in a television series that runs for years.

Making It Real

Nothing moves you like honesty.

Great storytelling is more than a script, people, images, locations, and music. It’s expressing ideas through the experiences and observations of people who understand, feel, and are deeply part of something. It’s about how to use the language of film to share those ideas, experiences and observations and make them meaningful for others.

Making It Count

Something about the production aspect.

Each story can be told in a thousand ways. Something more goes here that is about the making of videos and multimedia and our way of thinking about it.

We’ve been telling stories through film, video and multimedia for nearly 30 years.
