documentary and historical films

Our passions in life: filmmaking and history. Whether we're working on a documentary about the Emancipation Proclamation,  Michigan's State Capitol (which is amazing if you haven't been), an exhibit film for a museum, or acquiring oral histories, we absolutely excel in the historical film/video genre. We love all kinds of history, too: American, company's, personal history/experience, people, cars, architecture, stories! 

History and filmmaking. Yup, that's us!
