About us
We are experienced, collaborative documentary filmmakers. We put our experience at your disposal to tell the stories that you need to communicate.
We created our studio as a thoughtful alternative to traditional advertising — a space to tell your stories with authenticity and heart. We believe that genuine storytelling builds lasting connections with audiences. Through intimate, human-focused films, we help you communicate your values in a way that feels meaningful and powerfully effective.
Ben and Tom have worked together for nearly two decades, much of that work in the space where documentary filmmaking merges with advertising. You could say we found our groove crafting cinematic, emotionally rich stories that connect audiences to brands.
We know how to scale our shoots to extract the maximum value from the budget - we can work as a two without additional crew for less demanding shoots - and we scale up our crew and equipment needs to meet the demands of each shoot day.
By trade, Tom is a versatile and nimble Cinematographer who has shot feature documentaries and documentary series for Netflix, Disney+ and HBO as well as numerous TV commercials.
Ben is a creative and passionate Director, Exec Producer of feature documentary The Road of Excess, with 14 years’ experience running a production company in advertising and music videos.
We focus on branded documentaries — films that go beneath the surface to reveal the human stories behind the brand. Our passion is for socially conscious filmmaking. Whether it’s capturing the resilience of a community, the passion of a founder, or the soul of a mission-driven company, our work always comes back to one thing: people.
Every project we take on is a collaboration. We listen deeply, shoot sensitively, and build trust both in front of and behind the camera.
With a nimble team and a cinematic approach, we’re passionate about uncovering the soul of a story and presenting it in a way that’s emotionally resonant. The result? Visually beautiful, honest films that help your brand build relationships.
