Ian and team are video vampires- they swoop in quickly and suck the boring out of corporate videos. They are extremely quick, flexible and produce a high-quality product that gets results.

515 Productions has a unique ability to not only get to the heart of a story, but to find the soul and connection that defines meaningful storytelling. That’s because they genuinely care about the people they work with and are representing. They have been true partners to us throughout our work together – from establishing clear goals and brainstorming creative ideas at the start to helping us maximize the impact of the finished product through strategic distribution. And the exceptional quality of their work speaks for itself: We’ve received an incredible response to our video, including multiple film festival showings and a regional Emmy award. It’s been (and continues to be) a true pleasure to partner with and create impactful stories with the 515 Productions team on behalf of our clients.

My colleagues and I owe much to the 515 Dream Team for their incredible Freshwater production. Their talent, passion, dedication, and professionalism made this project easy for us. The results speak for themselves. They told a unique and important story in a captivating and accurate way.
