Our story
Four Decades of Award-Winning Work
Awards and Honors are amazing acknowledgements for any small business. Over four decades, we’ve acquired many awards for our video production prowess and community philanthropy.
Beginning in the early 1980s, we began winning awards for the VHS videos we shot, edited and produced. “The Great Mountain Biking Video” won the Ben Franklin Award for best box cover. “Massage For Relaxation” won an International Television Association award as the first instructional massage video. Additionally, in the 1990s our video “Full Cycle: A World Odyssey” won a dozen awards including “New York International Film Festival,” “Chicago Film Festival,” “Charleston International Film Festival” and “Houston Film Festival.” Indeed, not bad for a couple of kids romping around the world on mountain bikes.
Consequently, these awards and honors have brought us joy. However, they are really an indicator of how much we value our profession. Additionally, along with all the technologically-advancing tools available to us, our ability to serve our clients with the best videos we can produce for them, is what makes our world – and the gears of our cameras – go round.
