We create powerful films and private podcasts with individuals and families to connect their current and future generations through the power of story. Our clients seek to honor their histories, better understand themselves & their families, and build stronger relationships in the here and now. We help people discover, document and share what is singularly theirs: an authentic narrative.
DISCOVER YOUR NARRATIVE
A Message From Our Founder
"From the very beginning of getting to know you, until the moment we are officially recording, our skill is drawing out your story. Our value is more than media. We guide you and your family through an unusual and extraordinary process. We help you unpack and present a clear story — that which could not be told with as much beauty, impact or power without us."
Our Services
Memorable Films
Film is magic. It imparts a person’s spirit like no other medium. Our films usher you forward and backward across time and deepen your understanding of yourself and your family. Capture a person’s essence and shine a light on the journeys that culminated into this moment. Life stories, generational histories, family business, and much more.
Private Podcasting
Podcasting is a portable, intimate format that is ideal for families and businesses to connect with their chosen audience. Unlike public podcasts, these are designed for a select, discreet group of listeners. Accessible by invitation-only, they can be strategically used by families and enterprises for a variety of goals.
Consulting
We help families and advisors with issues related to personal narrative and presentation. We help you uncover and recast conflicting and unclear narratives. We offer coaching on public speaking and on camera presence. We help you leverage your story. Look at your narrative in a new light so you can move forward.
From Discovery to Celebration
Our Process
After completing over 100 media projects, we know that our value is as much "behind the camera" as it is about orchestrating a well-thought out experience that takes into account family dynamics, branches and generational perspectives, and different versions of history. Over the last decade and a half, we’ve developed a set of best practices that allow us to achieve exceptional results. We start with Discovery and end with Celebration.
