We recently partnered with @intuitivesurgical on this brand short highlighting their unparalleled commitment to precision through innovative design, hands-on manufacturing and meticulous testing of their surgical instruments and systems.
We worked closely with Intuitiveās awesome Creative and Marketing Teams to develop, shoot, edit and deliver in just 5-weeks from the word GO. The 3-day production at their Sunnyvale, CA headquarters was a whirlwind that took us to the manufacturing and testing line, saw us creating test lab and operating room sets and getting their already cool new design space camera-ready.
Weāre grateful for opportunities like this to work with pioneering brands, passionate creative teams, artists and professionals across our industry to develop storyboards, design dynamic sets, execute demanding productions with a smile, and fine tune all the details in post. It never gets old!
Thanks to EVERYONE that contributed to this one!

The Vibrant Communities series with @driscollsberry paid a visit to Prosser, Washington to capture the inspiring story of the Boys & Girls Club.
šThe previous facility for after school care in Prosser was critical for the community, but it simply wasnāt enough.
The small, portable space couldnāt keep up with the townās growing need.
Prosser deserved a better representation of why their community is a place to be proud of ā a facility solely focused on the importance of child education & development.
š«Driscollās collaborated with the BGC team to kickoff a determined capital funding campaign.
Every local community contribution that was made, Driscollās matched it.
šØThe campaign was a HUGE success. The BGC team now has a state-of-the-art facility for kids to enjoy sports, STEAM rooms, a computer lab, and a kitchen that provides meals they would otherwise have to wait for until 8pm.

Check out our next stop on the Vibrant Communities short documentary series with @driscollsberry : Santa Maria Valley, California, at the YMCA summer camp āļøš
With summertime comes the harvest season, which can be tough for families working long days away from home. Parents face the difficult decision of either leaving their kids at home alone or missing crucial days of work.
Driscollās collaborated with the YMCA team to find a solution: a new summer camp. The Foursquare Church proved to be the perfect facility, located in middle of the neighborhoods with rooms built for education. Now, families can walk their kids to and from the camp safely. The Driscollās sponsorship supports the camp with school supplies, materials, and teachers fit for an educational and fun summer.
The camp has been a huge success. Hardworking families now have a safe place for their kids to grow, learn, and play. We were honored to capture the story of this generous, community-driven program.
Full length video available on Driscollās YouTube channel!

Behind the scenes of our shoot with Driscollās, and the inspiring volunteer work taking place at the United Food Bank in Plant City, Florida in May of 2025.

Throughout 2025 we had the honor of partnering with @driscollsberry to produce their Vibrant Communities video and photo series, part of their One Family, One Earth⢠program. Itās been incredibly inspiring to meet so many incredible people across the country dedicated to providing vital resources (food, education, healthcare) to their neighbors.
We kicked the project off with United Food Bank in Plant City, Florida ā a city experiencing rapid population growth and addressing food insecurity with kindness and understanding. A Driscollās grant was part of a massive fundraising effort that enabled them to expand their facility and services to support thousands of people on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis. We were blown away by the energy and passion of the staff and volunteers!
Community engagement is more vital than ever; we encourage everyone to look for opportunities to find ways to participate in supporting theirs!
