I’ll be filming some video for Holy Hill next month, but while I was there for a meeting last week - with peak fall colors - I felt I needed to bring a drone.

It was cloudy all morning, but right after the meeting the sun started to break through. I only had to wait about 20 minutes for it to hit the basilica.

Funny part? I’ll probably only use 3 or 4 seconds in the final piece.

Which clip would you pick?

Just received word that the 2025 Diocese of Rockford Diocesan Appeal video won the Award for Excellence for Annual Appeal Video from the International Catholic Stewardship Council - for the second year in a row.

This year’s project marked the 50th anniversary of the appeal and included some VHS archival footage, a before-and-after priest interview (1992 and today), and narration by Bishop Malloy from the cathedral balcony.

Thanks to Claudia Broman, Bishop Malloy, and the Diocese of Rockford for their trust over the years.

Creative Images produced the 2025 Annual Appeal video for the Diocese of Rockford’s 50-year celebration of stewardship. Archival and contemporary interviews, historic footage, and narration by Bishop Malloy highlight the Church’s mission through decades of giving.

I spent the day interviewing farmers and capturing footage of the herds. The project was a freelance shoot, and once the filming wrapped, I handed off the footage for the client’s team to edit and use how they needed.

Sometimes clients need the full production package, and other times they just need someone to show up, capture great footage, and deliver it ready to go.

- and yes, the cows were great on camera. 😀

How do you make something as ordinary as a garbage can look high-tech and sleek? That was the challenge set by Catch-22 Creative, the creative minds behind this concept. Through dramatic lighting, cinematic framing, and a touch of mystery, we helped bring their vision to life—revealing a line of premium trash, recycling and composting receptacles designed for commercial spaces.

This video highlights the craftsmanship and aesthetic appeal of these modern receptacles, available in multiple configurations to fit any environment.

We currently have over 200TB of archive storage for our video projects. But here’s a crazy thought: in the early 1990s, when Creative Images was founded, that much storage would have cost $2 billion! Technology sure has come a long way.

BTW, we archive client projects, often pulling footage from 10, or even 15 years ago. Whether it’s refreshing an old campaign, or creating something new, our archives are always ready to deliver.

How would you put 200TB to use?

While on-site working with Chameleon Communications on a large project to share Camp Daniel’s story, inspiration struck for this bonus walking tour. We quickly decided to capture this behind-the-scenes look at their Northwoods facility, their dedicated team, and their mission to empower individuals with disabilities.

This short video is just a glimpse of the work happening at Camp Daniel and a testament to their life-changing programs. Watch, share, and help spread the word about Camp Daniel!

Did you know? In addition to creating promotional and marketing videos, we also produce broadcast television content.

Recently, we had the opportunity to film local interviews for a crime drama on A&E. The producers, director, and interviewer—Brian Ross (formerly of ABC)—were in New York and conducted the interviews via Zoom, while we handled the local recording to broadcast specs here in Wisconsin.

The client envisioned a dark, dramatic courtroom look for the interviews. However, with the Waukesha courthouse undergoing major reconstruction, that wasn't an option. The solution? A local hotel ballroom lobby. With the right lighting and setup, we worked to bring the client’s vision to life.

What do you think—did we pull off the look?

I’m ready for some gigs out west! This month I’ll be filming in Boston and New Jersey. Early this summer it was NYC and Long Island.

Anyone need me someplace warm this winter???

Explore the forefront of lithium-ion battery production for industrial and commercial use in our latest video. Produced by Catch-22 Creative and filmed and edited by Creative Images, this piece gives you a behind-the-scenes look at the automated and robotic processes powering today’s top energy solutions.

Due to safety cages surrounding the sophisticated machinery, our filming strategy involved the use of aerial drones and cameras strategically placed within the cages. This meticulous approach allowed us to film through and above these barriers seamlessly, ensuring that the machinery's impressive details were highlighted without the safety measures being noticeable.

This production is a showcase of Catch-22 Creative's expertise in scripting, concept development, and graphics, brought to life through the lens of Creative Images. Our joint direction has resulted in a video that not only educates but captivates, providing a rare glimpse into the future of battery technology and manufacturing excellence.
