From Kansas City to Los Angeles and beyond, our expertise spans compelling commercial videos and captivating narrative films. Guided by our core values—building community through workforce opportunities, reducing violence, driving strategic economic impact, and aligning with our clients' visions to achieve exceptional results—we proudly uphold our motto: "Project Over Pride."

What People Say

  • "Everyone was very kind to each other. It was a lot of collaboration and people really working together in a very genuine way. And you could really feel that."

    Susan Garrett

  • “They say here in Kansas City that we don’t work together. That’s a lie. Because anytime these brothers call me, I’m working with them. It was a blessing for me. My first day on set was a hundred percent the most memorable.”

    Stephen Carter

  • “I’ve never experienced anything like it before and it was really, really cool to be able to see how everything works and be a part of it. I remember my first day on set, I left and called my Mom and I was the happiest”
