Homework on the ITCA job 📐🌊 // Concept, challenges, and payoff. A study on how we got ideas out of our heads and onto the screen. From cinema references to aging the talent, we’re very proud of the process and work the team put in here.

When 50,000 people count down together, you feel it in your chest 🎆 Relentless Beats brought us in as the production team behind Decadence Arizona NYE — two nights, massive stages, and a mandate to capture every moment worth remembering. From artist sets to vendor activations to the ball drop itself, we were embedded across the entire event with one goal: don’t miss a thing. Our crew ran same-day edits for vendors and artists — turnaround while the bass was still shaking the walls — plus full daily recap films for both Day 1 and Day 2. Inside the venue, our FPV drone pilot flew through the structure and stages, threading a cinematic flythrough that puts you in the middle of 50,000 people losing their minds. When the balloons dropped at midnight, we were already rolling. A project this size requires a crew that can scale without losing control. All three partners were on the ground leading operations, running a live edit team in real time, and making sure every deliverable hit while the event was still going. That’s the job — and we wouldn’t trade it. Grateful to Relentless Beats for trusting us with one of Arizona’s biggest nights. This is the kind of work that reminds you why you got into it.

Some stories aren’t just told — they’re felt. 🎶 For Music Celebrations International (MCI), we partnered as their marketing agency to produce a cinematic suite of videos highlighting their Ireland music tour experience — where music, heritage, and culture meet in something unforgettable From concept to completion, we led strategy, scripting, production, and post-production. Traveling overseas with gear always comes with a few bumps in the road, but that’s part of delivering high-level work. On the ground, we captured performances, landscapes, and the emotional through-line that makes this program special. In post, we crafted a polished, documentary-style film designed to inspire and convert Featuring EMMY & GRAMMY nominated composer @jakerunestad alongside MCI leadership— John Wiscombe, Luke Wiscombe, and Kerry— this piece reinforces MCI’s authority in international music travel and performance tours. Branded documentary storytelling built for marketing impact, portfolio depth, and long-term visibility.

When sports storytelling meets personality, it hits different ⛳️🏌️‍♂️ Golf Digest and Discovery hired us to help produce a fun, fast, and slightly unfair showdown; with PGA pro @joeldahmen facing off against Golf Digest Digital Editorial Director Sam Weinman. Let’s just say… the scoreboard tells the story Built around humor, timing, and real on-camera chemistry, we shaped this piece to feel loose, human, and competition-ready while keeping a clean commercial polish across social and web. Our team was brought in for on-site video production, providing camera, audio, and lighting crew to capture the action and the comedy as it unfolded Grateful for the trust, the access, and the crew that made this one a blast to bring to life Client: @golfdigest �Agency: Thrill Wave Director: @swanndive DP: @chriskuzman Producer: @ari.everett Cam Op: @wyatt.rutt Cam Op: @_________________tyler Audio: @josh.morrison_ PA: @ralphydez Location: @scottsdalenational Camera(s): Sony FX Line, @sonyalpha Optics: Sony FX Line, @sonyalpha Audio: @sounddevices #marketing #advertising #agency #videoproduction #golf

Some projects ask you to slow down, listen deeply, and honor the people at the center of the story Together, we crafted sensitive public-health messaging designed to empower tribal members to seek vaccine guidance from trusted experts. The path wasn’t always clear, but we built it step by step with their medical and epidemiology team, guiding production from start to finish Every step pushed us to be more thoughtful, from challenges like one-take shots to having brilliant @allisonpynn “aging up” the talent to match the demographic. With shifting guidelines, cultural sensitivity, specific casting needs, and the weight of telling someone else’s story with care, those challenges also reminded us why we do this work Storytelling when done right can build trust, create understanding, and honor lived experience. We’re grateful for that trust placed in us, and proud of what came to life. Thank you to the cast, crew, and @itca.online who made this possible Client: @itca.online Agency: Thrill Wave Writer/Director: @chriskuzman DP/Editor: @swanndive Executive Producer: @ari.everett Client Producer: Cassie Santoro Client Advisory Board: Melissa Fulton, MPH Epidemiologist Client Advisory Board: Jamie Ritchie, MPH, PhD Cam Op: @wyatt.rutt H&MUA: @allisonpynn Location: @onetakestudioslive Music & SFX Licensing: @artlist.io Camera(s): @sonyalpha Optics: @viltrox.official epic anamorphics Lighting: @aputure.lighting Female Lead & VO: Ginger Martin Male Lead & VO: @bobby_hothai

We worker with @itcawic for the federal WIC program that helps feed families with healthy foods across the country. It has been an underutilized program, so the mission was to help create a suite of modern videos for a campaign to engage, educate, and outreach to local markets. It was a pleasure contributing to a great program 🥗🍎🥩🥦 //
