It was such a distant memory, back in February, when Brian and Billy had zero reservations with being this close. CAN’T YOU SEE COVID IS RUINING RELATIONSHIPS!?

Wendy + Danny completely changed our minds about February weddings 💒 ! These two were not only blessed with a drop-dead gorgeous day outside, but they ended up with a fantastic wedding filled with such a fun and welcoming crowd. It really makes a difference to us, and we appreciated every second we got to spend with these wonderful people capturing the love. Congratulations, Wendy and Danny!! ❤️

Social distancing is tough when all you want to do is give this guy a big birthday hug! Happy Birthday, Alex Mangione! Thanks for being a part of the team, providing us with your coffee knowledge, and being an overall special guy ❤️

While the world sits at home in quarantine, we figured we'd bless you with a little taste of the finer times! Back before any of this started, Wendy and Danny had the honor of celebrating their marriage on a beautiful February day! Makes us long for the days we were able to experience such happiness ❤️

Talk to any editor, music selection, oddly enough, is one of the most important, and time consuming aspects of video production. It can set the entire feel of a video, and helps tell the story of a brand--it’s basically their theme song! So let's play a game since we're all stuck in quarantine... What's your theme song?

As the world shuts down temporarily, we are still taking on some fun shoots! Today, we were filming with Salesforce to help promote a new product for the FAA! Finding ways to keep the wheels (and propellers) turning! And don’t worry, no handshakes or hugs, practiced social distancing, and there were no more than 2 people around us at any time! Trying to do our part!

Interview IG Post

Interviews are an essential piece to #videoproduction, but it can also be pretty daunting if YOU are the one answering a bunch of questions! Our ultimate goal is to help you feel relaxed and at ease. With Teleprompters, prompting questions, or just joking around to get a laugh--we bring a positive environment to help create the best performance. So how do we break the ice? "what'd you have for breakfast this morning?"

Did you know that most of our voice overs are done in-house by our very own Brian Belida? He owes his voice to his dad who was a broadcast journalist, doing funny voices and accents to each other all the time. Oh, and green apples are life. 🍏

So since women were cheated out of a full hour on #InternationalWomensDay yesterday, and our favorite person ever has her birthday tomorrow, we figured we would celebrate her, and all the amazing women out there who make the world turn today, a complete 24 hour day! Happy Early Birthday Amanda, and Happy International Women’s Day!

Sometimes it's not all sexy cameras and lenses. Sometimes you need to spend a couple hundred bucks on a small solution that saves you time behind the scenes, like mounting a ton of battery chargers to a peg board so you can juice up 20 batteries at once. That's showbiz, baby!

Finally a little sunshine! It's been gloomy lately, so we've been anxious to stretch our legs and take our work outside the office! A little change of environment can go a long way in a creative field. Add beer, and you're golden 🙌 🎬 🎥

Today's word is "productivity!" Got the team in the office knocking out 4 simultaneous projects and making dreams come true 🙌 Lots of editing, lots of Korean fried chicken, lots of momentum. Basically our 3 pillars of success.

We start our days just like everyone else, one cup of coffee at a time. The difference is, we don’t really ever stop! I think my current favorite blend is Blanchard's Dark as Dark. Tell us—what’s your favorite blend?

Some say the cameraman for 1917 is still holding a shot to this day…Huge congratulations to DP Roger Deakins for winning Best Cinematography for 1917 at the Oscars on Sunday! The entire film was done as a single-take, and we are huge fans of the style. Any opportunity to work one into a shoot is really exciting for us.

Coffee is our lifeblood, especially on conference days. We’re up early and ready to go before the crack of dawn, all made possible by our office espresso machine… very possibly the hardest worker on our team ☕️

This was one that makes your stomach sink a bit. You don't get too much daily exposure to 9/11 anymore, so seeing the top of the tower up close is quite literally breathtaking. A true honor that we got to capture the entire Newseum to archive these carefully curated exhibits.
