MAX Studios at UST

04/08/2024

We're with MAX Studios at UST in mission AND name!

It's been a couple of months since we officially announced our partnership with the team from MAX Studios. Since then we've been working hard on our shared vision and mission, and considering what to call ourselves. Inspired by the example our patron St. Maximilian Kolbe, we are using the digital media of our time to find Christ in others and share their stories. We were inspired to unite all our work under his name with MAX Studios.

If you missed it, check out our Instagram live conversation between Creative Director Darnell Miller and Creative Lead Kyle Heimann. Plus be sure to follow us and tune in for our next live chat with Executive Producer Bridget Richardson and Podcast Media Manager Andrea Serrani this Thursday, April 11 at 3:00 CDT.

We're excited for what's to come, and we hope you'll be there with us!
