BTS | 📝📚

We spent the day capturing inspiring interviews with students and faculty whose lives have been transformed by a Minnesota Law education.

This work is a powerful reminder: scholarships change lives. Without them, many of these stories wouldn’t exist.

A series of :06’s |

For this project, we carved out x3 single-take micro-spots using a probe lens. Each one a sensory hit of fresh ingredients, bold on-screen text, and hand-crafted goodness that keeps the audience engaged and curious as to what happens next.

🍅 One shot.
🥖 One pullback. 
🤤 All crave.

BTS | Tierra Encantada

What was real:
✔️ Genuine moments
✔️ Gorgeous, light-filled classrooms
✔️ Babies and toddlers ready to work (and play)
✔️ Learning through Spanish in action
✔️ Storytelling that hits in :30
✔️ A top-tier crew that captured it all

What was staged:
✔️ Let’s just say a certain 3-year-old delegated the coloring close-ups to the Director.

Hey — that’s kid talent for you. More soon.

In a quiet corner of Minnesota—where the pace is slow and the lights are few—something remarkable is quietly making noise... 

We’ve been busy behind the scenes working on a new show concept. One that dives deep into the stories behind the stuff, the people who bring it in, and the quirky small-town magic that makes this place one-of-a-kind.

Old stuff. New stories. That’s what you’ll find at Auction Studios. 🕰️🗝️🧸🪆

BTS | Abbey’s Hope 

Creative storytelling calls for creative solutions - like turning an aquarium into an underwater camera rig. 🎥💦🐠

We spent the day at the pool capturing footage that reflects the heart of Abbey’s Hope: water safety, prevention, and protecting kids around water.

When it’s a story worth telling, we go all in.

Also - always have a to have your back (and the gear).

Scouting isn’t optional — it’s essential.

When filming outdoors, location scouting is one of the most critical steps in pre-production. It’s where you solve for light, sound, logistics… and maybe even surprise lawn mowers (we got you sound department). 

But even the perfect location can’t control the weather — which is why having  contingency day baked into your schedule is a non-negotiable. Don’t get caught scrambling when the rain clouds roll in (cue the anti-rain dance we’re currently doing for our pool shoot next week).

Prep smart. Scout early. Plan for everything.

Behind the Cravings | Davanni’s BTS 🍕🔥

This shoot was stacked with flavor as we spent the day capturing every meaty, cheesy detail with our friends at Davanni’s. And let’s just say… no one left hungry.

Real cheese. Real meat. Fresh ingredients. This is how crave-worthy is made. 🤤

Currently in post-production.
