What we film.
Every production starts with what the video has to do: win a customer, fill a job, explain a product or bring people back next year.
Brand story films
Who you are, in two minutes
A short film built around your people and your work, for your homepage, YouTube and social. Jeremy’s Paint & Body and Parents as Teachers both use one.
Recruitment videos
Show people where they’d work
Your real crew, shop floor and job sites, cut into a full piece and short ads for Meta and job boards. Built for Conklin Automotive and Lane-Scott Electric Cooperative.
Product & process
Explain it once, well
How-to and product videos that answer customer questions before they call, like EyeBlack’s sticker how-to or Hyatt Life Sciences’ look at how arum is processed in Sterling.
Event recaps
Next year’s attendance starts here
Ninety-second recaps for chambers, festivals and fundraisers, like Caring for Kansas and the Lyons Chamber of Commerce’s Fair on the Square.
Drone & aerial
The view your customers can’t get
FAA Part 107 certified aerial video and photography of facilities, service territories, downtowns and landmarks like Monument Rocks.
Social cuts
One shoot, months of posts
Short vertical edits for Facebook, Instagram and job boards, cut from the same footage so every production keeps working.
How a production runs.
Plan
Story & script
A planning call, a voice and tone guide when you need one, a script and a shot list you approve before we roll.
Shoot
A small, careful crew
Half-day to multi-day shoots at your location. We follow your safety and PPE rules and work around your schedule.
Edit
Review rounds
You see a cut, give notes and approve the final. Then we deliver the master film and the social versions.
Launch
Get it seen
A launch plan, a targeted ad boost and placement on your website and YouTube so the film is watched, not just posted.

Video questions
Before the shoot.
How much does a video cost?
It depends on shoot days, locations and how many versions you need. After a planning call we give you a fixed quote for the full production, so there are no surprises.
How long does a production take?
We set your delivery date in the plan and build the schedule backward from it, including shoot days and review rounds. Tell us your deadline, like a launch, an event or hiring season, and we’ll plan around it.
Do you travel for shoots?
Yes. We film across central and western Kansas, from Wichita and Hutchinson to Hays, Dodge City, Liberal and Scott City, and travel farther for the right project.
Can you write the script?
Yes. We write scripts from your story and, when it helps, build a voice and tone guide first so the film sounds like you.
Can a video help our website rank?
Yes. Video on a page keeps visitors longer, and we add titles, descriptions and structured data so Google and YouTube understand what the video is about and who it’s for.
Do you offer video production in Wichita?
Yes. We film brand videos, recruiting videos, church and nonprofit stories, events and drone footage for Wichita-area organizations regularly, and the drive is about an hour from our Sterling studio.
