We recently wrapped up a months long collaboration with the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco to lead post-production on a 5-part documentary series on Alaska Native Art. We steeped ourselves in the raw footage, the sounds, the scenery and the history of Alaska native people, in order to create 5 films that truly honor this rich cultural history. It features the contributions of artists and cultural practitioners from across Alaska. We are grateful for each person’s participation and guidance: Qaĝaalakux̂, Quyana, Gunalchéesh, Haw’aa, Quyanaq, Thank you.

During Adobe MAX 2022 week, we wanted to share a collab we did with the crew at Adobe Stock. They invited us to create three animated “fantastic voyages” using only stock assets (video, images, illustrations, textures, and 3D) from their vast libraries. Each journey took our team to unexpected and inspired places – see where they take you!

 

 

Here, we build a journey through a day, from dawn to dusk, across natural and city landscapes.

 

 

A series of portals pull us into ever more unexpected scenes filled with beautiful juxtapositions.

 

For this adventure, we play with perceptions of scale as we travel through air, water, a fungal forest, and finally lift off into the beyond.

The HPE GreenLake team was looking for a story that encompassed the power of their platform including speed, agility and ease of use. We created a go-fast story with characters who we love, who love the product and who could say it all in two minutes. They did it!

The Vibe S1 smartboard is as awesome as it seems; it slices, it dices, it does your homework. We loved making this film with the @the.vibe.board team, they are as kind as the board is cool, and the process was a blast – especially with the amazing cast we got to play with.

In the fourth installment of our Case Study series with Stellar we stuck close to home to feature the ascendant team at Wyre. We shot right here in San Francisco and it was great to get out from behind the Zoom windows to all collaborate in person. Check out the clip to learn how Wyre, a crypto infrastructure provider with a full suite of APIs, empowers worldwide businesses to easily and safely build on Stellar with USDC.

Earth Day began in 1970, but 52 years later it’s become less of a nice concept and more of a powerful reminder: it’s time to genuinely orient around the earth and the important facts about climate change, not just talk about it.

Last summer, we began making a series of short films for Meta in which we profiled three inspiring stories of people fighting climate change. The series took us all over the map, starting with a remote shoot in Bali, followed by a visit to the east coast to shoot in Maine, and ending with an overseas trip to Jamaica. In each case were were amazed by the women we met and the profound difference each of them is making. We loved making these little films and hope that others get to see these incredible women for their kind hearts and courageous actions.

On Earth Day, Meta put Mikaela’s video front and center. Watch the full series below.

We had a chance to team up with the same amazing cast from our recent comedic effort for HPE’s GreenLake announcements today. Part 2 of the “Where’s Oscar Series” shows how our heroes handle all of the requests coming at them…but thankfully their lives are about to get a LOT easier!

Happy Valentine’s Day! It’s a good day to celebrate love!  Our film Little Point Richmond is about the love our neighbor Jimmie Robinson shares by hand crafting exquisite tiny fairy houses for his community. We hadn’t shared the full film yet as it was on a festival run, but that is complete and so here you go. If inspired, please share the neighborly love!

Adobe approached us to help launch their new product Adobe Express in style. Adobe Express is the new way to make killer content quickly from thousands of beautiful templates. Jump on in to the fun!

A reel of work produced exclusively in 2021! We traveled extensively last year; virtually to South Africa, Argentina and Bali and actually got on planes to shoot in Portland, Maine and Jamaica.
