This proposal is for

This page is for marketing, communications, brand and HR teams at companies with a steady need for video: a testimonial program, a launch, an internal initiative or a rollout across offices. You have real customers and employees with real stories, a brand standard to protect and a calendar that does not move. We have run that kind of program for a Fortune 100 insurer across the country, and we bring the same crew, the same process and the same look to each one.

Carolyn: A Corporate Testimonial

A 30-second testimonial for Columbus State's Making Us Stronger campaign: Carolyn, a Columbus State graduate and IT analyst at Nationwide, filmed at work in Nationwide's Columbus headquarters. A real employee, in the real workplace, telling her own story.

What we make

Films for every team in the building.

What	What it includes	Where we've done it
Customer and client testimonials	A real customer tells their own story in a two-camera documentary interview with b-roll, filmed where they live or work. A hero film plus cutdowns.	Nationwide: about 20 customer and agent stories in 11 states since 2024.
Employee stories and recruiting	The honest version of a job, told by the person doing it, filmed at their desk and in their meetings without stopping the workday.	Carolyn, an IT analyst at Nationwide, for Columbus State's Making Us Stronger campaign.
Brand films and anthems	The company, the people and the reason it exists, in 60 to 120 seconds, with social cutdowns.	Boss Money with Jonathan Mensah. Third Sun Solar brand anthem.
Explainers and animation	Products, platforms and processes explained with motion graphics and animation, in your brand.	ABB Ability Genix APM Suite: an animated explainer. American Greetings Creatacard: an app spot.
Broadcast and campaign spots	Scripted :30s for television and extended web cuts from the same shoot, so one production runs on every channel.	Ohio Chamber of Commerce Good for Life: four broadcast spots and four extended cuts in eight weeks.
Internal communications	Leadership messages, town halls, training and onboarding video, turned around fast and cut for your intranet.	Event and training work for universities and nonprofits.
Facilities, aerials and a footage library	Drone footage from an FAA-certified pilot, office and campus b-roll, and a shared library your in-house team can pull from all year.	Every Nationwide shoot adds to a library the client's own editors use.

The Nationwide model, applied

One program, every office.

Nationwide needed reliable, high-cadence production against its own creative direction. Since 2024 that has meant about 20 customer and agent stories in 11 states, from Portland and Sacramento to Charlotte and Atlanta. It started as one project and became a program. That is the shape of the work most corporate teams need.

For Nationwide	For your company
Real customers and agents tell their own stories	Customers, employees and leaders tell yours
A lean crew flies to each market	A crew that lands at any office, branch or plant
One look and one process in every city	One look across every location and channel
Capture-only for Nationwide's editors, or full post, per project	Capture for your in-house team, or edit through delivery
Started as one project, became a recurring program	Start with one film, grow into a program when it works

How a program is scoped

A set number of story packages a year. Each package is a defined deliverable: story development and interview prep, a half or full shoot day with a two-camera interview and b-roll, then edit, color, sound and captions, or footage delivered to your editors. The crew stays the same, the look stays the same and the library grows with every shoot.

Real people, real workplaces.

Four programs for companies and the people who work with them, each built on someone telling their own story in a real place.

Nationwide

Customer and agent stories, nationwide

About 20 customer and agent stories across 11 states since 2024, with the same crew and the same standard in every city.

Nationwide, the Fortune 100 insurer headquartered in Columbus, has brought us back again and again for customer and agent stories filmed across the country, from Portland and Sacramento to Charlotte and Atlanta. Each shoot is built on real people and documentary interviews, with a lean crew that lands in any city and delivers the same look every time. Some projects are capture-only for Nationwide's own editors; others run through our post suite end to end. With advance planning, one trip can cover more than one story, which keeps the cost per film down.

Role

Story development, production, post, in every market

Objective

Customer and agent stories across the country

Carolyn: an employee testimonial at Nationwide

A 30-second testimonial for Columbus State's Making Us Stronger campaign, filmed with a graduate at her job as an IT analyst at Nationwide.

Carolyn is a Columbus State graduate and an IT analyst at Nationwide. We filmed her at work in Nationwide's Columbus headquarters: at her desk, in a meeting, walking the lobby, at the sign out front, with a short interview that carries the spot. One morning on site, no disruption to the floor, and a film that works for both organizations. It is the format every company needs for recruiting and culture: a real employee, in the real workplace, telling her own story in 30 seconds.

Role

Interview, production, editing

Objective

Alumni testimonial, broadcast and social

Boss Money

Brand film with Jonathan Mensah

A brand film for an international money-transfer company, told through Columbus Crew captain Jonathan Mensah and the family he supports in Ghana.

Boss Money wanted a customer story with real human value instead of a typical ad. We started with a Zoom interview to understand Jonathan's background, distilled it into a voiceover that stayed true to him, then filmed him on a practice field at sunset with the ARRI Alexa Mini and a drone. One short window on the field produced a 30-second hero spot and a longer interview about growing up in Ghana and the American Dream. Two films, one shoot day.

Role

Concept, script, production, post

Objective

Brand storytelling, commercial

Timeline

4 to 6 weeks

Third Sun Solar

Brand anthem for a solar installer

A one-minute anthem for an Ohio solar installer: the crews, the rooftops, the farms and the families that run on the power they build.

Third Sun Solar installs on homes, farms and businesses across Ohio. The anthem follows the work from a dark street at dawn to installers on a roof and a ground-mounted array, with aerials of panels on a farmhouse, a barn and a neighborhood. It gives a company that sells something technical a film about the people and places that technology serves, which is what a brand anthem is for.

Role

Production, aerials, editing

Objective

Brand awareness, website and sales

Nationwide: A Customer Story

One of about 20 customer and agent stories we have produced for Nationwide across 11 states since 2024. Documentary interviews and cinematic b-roll, with the same crew and standard in every city.

How we work.

Six steps, built around your calendar, your brand standards and the people on camera. One fixed-fee quote per deliverable, two rounds of revisions, on deadline.

Discovery

Your goals, audiences and calendar, and the customers and employees whose stories are already there.

Story development

We find and pre-interview people, then write a short treatment for your approval, to your brief or ours.

Site plan

Rooms, access, badges and timing worked out with your office or facilities team, so the workday keeps going.

Production

A lean crew with a two-camera interview kit, lighting and sound, on site for a half or full day, in any city.

Edit and review

Review links with time-coded notes. Two rounds of consolidated revisions, with your approvals built in.

Finish and deliver

Color, sound mix, captions and cutdowns for web, social, intranet and broadcast, with the footage for your library.

Filming in your offices

Low drama, every time.

An office, a branch or a customer's home is not a set. We plan every shoot around the people in it and the work that has to keep going.

Your brand, your brief

We can shoot to your creative direction and brand standards, as we do for Nationwide, or develop the concept with you. Either way, nothing is published without your approval.

A small footprint

A compact crew and a two-camera interview kit that sets up in one room, works around meetings and is gone by the time the floor fills up.

Any city, same crew

The same director, camera and sound team lands in each market, so a story filmed in Atlanta matches one filmed in Columbus.

Works with in-house teams

Capture-only when your editors want the footage, full post when they don't. Either way the files arrive organized and backed up.

Production, post and footage

Gear and footage.

Cameras	Cinema cameras, including the ARRI Alexa 35 and RED: the same tools used on commercials and features.
Interview kit	A two-camera documentary interview setup with lighting and production sound, built to set up fast in a conference room or a customer's living room.
Aerial	Drone footage, flown by an FAA-certified pilot, for offices, campuses and neighborhoods.
Lighting and sound	A lighting, grip and sound package sized to the room, from a run-and-gun kit to a full package on a brand film.
Post	Editing, motion graphics, animation, color and sound, led by our team.
Accessibility	Closed-caption files for every film, so your team can meet its accessibility standards on any platform.

Planned to stretch

With advance planning, one trip can cover more than one story, which saves on crew and travel. Over a continuing relationship, every shoot adds to a footage library your team can pull from all year.

Your footage

Every project uses the same folder structure, with footage organized by date and backed up during production. Finished films and source footage are delivered by cloud transfer.

Rights and usage

Your company owns the finished films, source footage and project files, and can reuse them for its own marketing, communications and recruiting with no added fees. Licensed music, stock and voiceover follow their own license terms.

The leads on every story.

Our core team leads every project, from the first idea to the final cut. When a shoot calls for more hands, we scale up with production support that works under our direction, at home or on the road.

Grant Smucker

Founder and chief creative officer

15+ years as a director and cinematographer. Guides the creative direction and shoots most of the principal photography.

Molly Radigan

Animation lead and illustrator

8+ years in motion graphics and After Effects. Builds the explainers, title systems and animation on every campaign.

Alex Murrell

Producer and editor

Keeps schedules, logistics and communication on track, and cuts most of the final edits.

A sample year

What a first year could look like.

An example only. The real plan is built around your launches, campaigns and internal calendar.

Quarter 1

Discovery, one shared look and a library shoot at headquarters. The first two customer stories.

Quarter 2

A brand film or launch spot. Employee stories for the careers page.

Quarter 3

Customer stories in two more markets on one trip. An explainer for a new product or process.

Quarter 4

A leadership message and a year-in-review cut from the library. Planning for next year's program.

Itemized labor + equipment rates so you can pressure-test the math against your own scope. We'll send the PDF over.

Common questions, quick answers.

The questions we hear first from marketing and communications teams.

Can you work with our in-house creative team?

Yes. For Nationwide we often capture to the client's own creative direction and hand footage to their editors; on other projects we run edit, color and sound through delivery. We fit whichever model your team needs, project by project.

Do you travel to our other offices and to customers?

Yes. Columbus is home base, and most of our work is elsewhere. For Nationwide we have filmed in 11 states, from Portland and Sacramento to Charlotte and Atlanta, with the same crew each time. Travel rolls into the fixed quote.

How disruptive is a shoot in a working office?

Not very. A testimonial needs one room for the interview and a couple of hours of b-roll around the floor. We plan access, badges and timing with your facilities team in advance, set up fast and work around meetings. Carolyn's spot for Columbus State was filmed at Nationwide in a single morning.

How do you protect our brand standards and approvals?

We shoot to your brand guidelines and creative brief when you have them, and build the look with you when you don't. Every cut goes to you for review before anything is published, with two rounds of consolidated revisions included.

How long does a testimonial take?

Most single stories deliver in three to six weeks from the shoot, including two rounds of revisions. Series and programs are scheduled as a package so delivery matches your campaign calendar.

Who owns the footage?

You do. Your company owns the finished films, the source footage and the project files, and can reuse them for its own communications with no added fees. Licensed music, stock and voiceover follow their own license terms.

Do you deliver vertical and captioned versions?

Yes. Every film comes with closed-caption files, and cutdowns for social, intranet and broadcast are scoped into the quote when you need them.

Let's tell your company's story.

Tell us what's coming up: a testimonial program, a launch, a recruiting push or an internal initiative. We'll come back with a plan and a quote for the first set of films.
