What we make
Films with a reason to exist.
Destination & brand films
The film that captures who you are and why people should come, with cutdowns for every channel.
Anniversary & impact films
Milestones, results and the people who made them happen, told in a way funders and members remember.
Conservation & mission stories
Stories from the field that make the work tangible, for campaigns, events and fundraising.
Immersive 360° & VR
Virtual experiences that let people explore a place they can’t easily visit.
Beyond film
Immersive 360° experiences.
For the Otipemisiwak Métis Government, we built a 360° virtual experience of their Indigenous Protected and Conserved Area, so Citizens across Alberta can explore the land from anywhere.
Our 360° work also includes canoe tripping in Nova Scotia, a seasonal virtual experience for Explorers’ Edge, adventure travel in Argentina and Cyprus for the Adventure Travel Trade Association, and a recruitment experience for Trent University.
How we work
From first conversation to final cut.
01
Listen
We learn what the film needs to do, who it’s for, and whose voices belong in it.
02
Shape the story
Research, interviews and a treatment, so the shoot is built around a real story.
03
Capture
A small, respectful crew on location, from ground to drone to 360°.
04
Craft & share
Edit, sound and colour, plus cutdowns and stills so the film keeps working after launch.
What’s the story you need to tell?
An anniversary, a place, a mission, a moment. Tell us about it and we’ll tell you how we’d film it.
