St. Louis projects
Family-owned businesses, nonprofits and institutions with long histories often have the best raw material for a story film: old photos, a founder's letters, a building that has changed over decades. We can bring those archives into the edit so the film shows how the organization got to where it is now.
For nonprofits, we pay close attention to how the people you serve appear on screen and follow your consent rules, including voice-only interviews when faces should stay private.
How a St. Louis project runs
- You share the interviews and footage and tell us who the film is for.
- We read the transcripts, propose a story outline, and send a written quote.
- You review a first cut with time-stamped notes.
- We refine the edit and deliver the film and short cut-downs.
Everything happens online: footage arrives through a shared link, outlines and cuts come back for review, and calls are booked on Central time. We don't have an office in St. Louis, and the edit doesn't need one.

Questions
What time zone are calls in?
Central time, the same as St. Louis.
Can you work with scanned archive photos?
Yes. We clean them up where we can and add gentle movement so they sit well between interview shots.
Ask for a quote
Cost depends on how many interviews there are, how much b-roll, the finished length, the amount of sound and color work, and the number of revision rounds. Every job gets its own written quote.
