It was such a pleasure working with and the whole Rivian team to help bring this heartwarming project to life. We helped the team out with the running & aerial footage utilizing the stunning topography of some of our favorite central Washington locations. Pretty awesome we get to be the grown up versions of these young kids in the film and continue to live out our dreams making awesome films with amazing people!

As we gear up to celebrate our 10th anniversary of Motion State this week, we wanted to share some behind the scenes of our team in action during our shoot with for the launch of their new Ultra 10” monitor. There’s nothing better than good times on set with great people and getting to play in the dirt like a bunch of kids in a sandbox.

What has made Motion State thrive for the past decade is the people we surround ourselves with. Without the love, hard work and dedication of all those who have been on this journey with us, we would not be where we are at today!

Thank you to everyone who made this day possible and all of you who been on this wild journey with us over the the past decade.

Special thanks to for the incredible photos.

These are the Unsung Heroes of our community, the Kittitas County Search and Rescue team. This team selflessly serves our county, unpaid and out of the limelight. Our local SAR team like all SAR teams around the country provide this service so we can all enjoy the great outdoors and know that when things go wrong they are there to help rescue us. KSAR relies completely on donations from others and can’t continue their service without our help. Currently is in the top 5 finalist to win a new Land Rover 130 courtesy of the Land Rover Defender Service Awards in the SAR category. Please help this wonderful organization win this desperately needed vehicle by voting on the link in our profile so that they can continue to honor their motto “So others may live“.

We are honored to have Daughter’s Defender nominated at the International Motor Film Awards - for ‘Best Creative Film’. This is a Motion State self funded spec car commercial spot that was inspired by the search and rescue heroes of our communities, who put their lives on the line so others may live.

Special thank you to our cast, community and crew who donated their time and put their all into this film. Working schedules around the snow was a concern and challenge. When an unexpected winter snow storm hit in the Cascade Mountains, everyone rallied within a 24-48 hour notice to pull this passion project off. The objective of collaborating to make this content took on a whole new meaning when we all got to experience the harsh elements and realities search and rescue teams are faced with when rescuing others. The cast and crew devotedly worked through temperatures well below zero to bring this father/ daughter search and rescue story to life.

We hope this short film helps shed light on the work that the search and rescue hidden hero’s of our communities do. Thank you to and Steve Rimmer for bringing life and authenticity to this film.

Thank you to our team who bought so much passion to this project. This spot is the bi-product of your positive and collaborative kinetic energy on set.
