Sure, our videos look like film and we're proud of that! But we love aligning our decades of experience with a creative approach to budgeting. It all starts with a conversation. Let's talk!

This short film, “We Are,” was written and directed by Limbo’s own Katie O’Grady and D.P. and edited by Gary Nolton. This piece was inspired by Katie’s decades of working with kids and teens in her acting studio, and was created to give them a voice, as they’re most affected by the changes in the world, today. Katie and Gary teams up to bring their voices — and these beautiful moments – to life. That’s the power of film for good. #limbofilms #oregonfilm #portlandfilmcommunity #madeinoregon #ompa #cinematography #poweroffilm #weare #futuregeneration #filmswithheart #teens
