The Garden Launch Party!

We just want to take a minute to thank everyone who came out to the official launch for Garden Party last weekend! We loved having you all over to our office space so we could tell you all about this amazing story and give you a first hand look into what this project is shaping up to be.

It was an awesome night of laughter, great conversations, excellent company, and some exclusive sneak peeks into what we've got waiting for you all in just the coming months. 

Garden Party isn't just another film, and it isn't just another crowdfunding campaign you can contribute toward that'll leave you out in the cold; it's an engaging and captivating story that we are designing so you can experience it as if it were real. 

Stay tuned for more Garden fun coming soon!

(Shout out to our amazing friend and photographer genius, Noah Prefontaine, for these awesome launch party photos!)

Welcome to the Garden Party

Ask just about anyone and they'll tell you that there is something magical about theatrical storytelling. Sitting in a dark room for 2 hours with a group of strangers, experiencing the same story in front of you, and each walking away with a deep and meaningful take on the story that then makes you think differently is one of the most fascinating wonders of our age. As storytellers ourselves, we fell in love with this artform of such storytelling.

This summer we are excited to be setting out to tell just such a story that just such an audience can come together and experience as one. It's actually the first story that was ever told, but with a new twist; the Fall in the Garden of Eden, but set at a corporate business party in the boss' garden estate.

We've been workshopping, refining, and laughing all along the way over the last year as we have continued to develop and deepen the story of Garden Party. With every step of creating this script, these characters, this world, we have only fallen more and more in love with this story and we are so excited to begin to share it with the world. It's a dark comedy, with an interesting spin and perspective on the subject matter that we are positive will have a crowd of strangers sitting in a dark room somewhere laughing their heads off.

But in order to tell this story, we need you!

This is a massive undertaking, and we aren't kidding when we say this is the largest story, production, or project we have set out to tell. It's new, it's exciting, it's daring, but in the end it's our dream; to tell stories that make an audience think, laugh, love, and grow. This isn't just a hobby, this is what we want to do with our lives. And in order to do that, we need people like you! People who like experiencing something new, who believe in the art of storytelling through film, people who love watching stories unfold before them, and people who live for storytelling just like us.

We need you. We need your help in sharing this story and this campaign with everyone that you can think of. We need your excitement and your energy. We need your support and belief. We need you, our fellow storyteller.

Check out our IndieGoGo campaign for Garden Party to find out more on how to get involved, experience this story for all it's worth, and how to have a few laughs with us along the way. This is the story of Garden Party, where just one sip can change the world.

Tramec Sloan: Delivery, Performance, Value, Integrity

We love working and collaborating with local businesses that are leading the way in innovation, excellence, and integrity within their respective markets. When our team was approached by the team at Tramec Sloan, a Holland based ISO certified engineering company serving the heavy-duty trucking industry, we were excited to come on board and and craft for them a short film highlighting their history, exceptional products, and reputation within the industry.

Starting as Sloan Transportation Products, a branch of The Sloan Valve company, in 1977 Tramec Sloan’s very foundation and history was formed upon the belief that creating quality products with excellent service provided an unmatched value to the industry. After two company merges and a couple years of unified company development, Tramec continues to live this belief out on a daily basis.

Today Tramec Sloan has developed into a lead supplier of quality heavy-duty truck and trailer products to OEMs and the aftermarket. Their team functions as a single source provider of original equipment for their customers, providing quality products that are both innovative and efficient for those whom they serve.

Between roadtripping to Tramec’s Galion, Ohio and Iola, Kansas branches, to learning about the developing and growing culture of their company, this was an exciting project to have been a part of. For us personally, we were stretched creatively and had the opportunity to try new styles and ways of telling their story. During this process we not only learned new skills, got to tour the midwest a bit, and created a film, we also gained a growing relationship with Sloan, and for that we could not be more thankful.

A Year in Reflection

It's always an honor to make films like these for our Alma Mater. They remind us of the special community that fostered our professional skills, many life long friendships, and instilled a Truth that can never be taken away. It's an invaluable experience that we carry with us day to day. 

Cornerstone University is not just a collection of buildings where people come to take classes. It's a community and a home, not just for us, but for many others before and after us. These campus paths have led countless undergrad and graduate students not only to their dream careers, but also to form lives that are changing the world around them. Here's to you all who burned the midnight oil to get your projects done on time, to those who got exceptional grades while juggling many extra curricular activities, to those who inspired their friends and families with their hard work and dedication to complete a higher education degree. 

We are proud to be counted among the wonderful graduates of this fine institution. Congratulations to the Graduating class of 2015!!!
