What we do

Story first, then the shots.

Every film starts with the story your audience needs to hear. We plan the interviews, locations and footage around that story, then film, edit, grade and mix it with our own team, with no hand-offs.

Our documentary work includes the TWR Kenya @50 anniversary series, a CSR documentary for Jumbo Chem Kenya, impact films for KEMFSED in Kwale County and customer testimonial films for PAIX Data Centres.
