About
Our award-winning, multi-platform experience as storytellers separates us from the competition. Plus, we're fun to work with.
Our Philosophy
Putting Story First is our promise.
Tell us who you are and we’ll tell the tale.
How do you raise $500K to produce a film that everyone loves, but no one wants to finance? That was the question posed by our first project Premium. We decided to write a check on our own account called “creative hustle”, designed proposals and newsletters, produced short films, commercials, and marketing videos, staged live events, and appealed to our community for support. Creativity collided with commerce as we identified our competitive edge — communicating to any audience.
This is what we offer to you.
Our Mission
To create compelling content of the highest quality at the most affordable price.
A camera is a camera until you put it in the hands of an artist. If you’re serious about your brand, you value the experience and execution of experts. Our creative collaboration ensures that by the time we grab our tools, the blueprint of your story has been designed to engage your audience in the most entertaining and effective way possible.
You keep doing what you’ve done to get to this point. We’ll be your partner in the journey to the next level.

Premium Video Content
Whether you need a single piece of content or you’re looking for a suite of videos to populate a Social Media Campaign, our Premium Video Content is the next level of storytelling. Anyone can make something look good with today’s technology, but the ability to craft a story and connect with your audience demands more than equipment. It requires know-how.
Social Media Campaigns
Our Premium Video Content is designed to engage your social media platforms. Our Storytelling Strategies ensure that the authenticity of the conversation extends for the life of your Social Media Campaign. Once people are talking, we make sure they are heard.
Storytelling Strategies
From our Creative Brief to our first conversations with you, we work to get an understanding of who you are, what you do, and what your goals are. From there, we identify the audience and craft a variety of content to promote engagement and further your initiatives. Great stories don’t tell themselves.

We just purchased an awesome documentary camera and have started shooting content for our new documentary Click Here. Part of the project includes intimate Vlogs and here is the UNCUT version of Pete Chatmon’s first installment.

No Film School is a great resource for filmmakers, whether you’ve gone to film school or not (hence the name, eh). The Double7 Squad has been pretty excited about the documentary Indie Game and with a little bit of Google stalking on the project, we came across an awesome case study that the filmmakers released [...]
While the product itself is not new, we’ve decided it’s about time to jump into the slider game, thanks to this lovely video created by the product’s namesake and DSLR guru Philip Bloom. With solid construction and a proven track record, we’re sure it’ll get just the right shots for our clients and personal projects.
Director Chris Everett has been hard at work, not only the trailer for Wilmington on Fire, his feature documentary executive produced by Pete Chatmon, but also finalizing the rewards for a post-production fundraising campaign.
