Most organizations don't need another vendor. They need someone who can tell them what making something in Hawaiʻi actually involves — a realistic budget, the right crew, a timeline that survives the islands, and every permission the project will need. The terrain, the infrastructure and the policies here don't work like anywhere else. You can spend months and real money learning that, or you can spend one consultation with someone who already knows.
The judgment behind it comes from a career on Hawaiʻi's sets: 350+ episodes of network television as a grip and key grip, Vice President of I.A.T.S.E. Local 665, and co-founder of the Hawaiʻi Film Alliance, which helped pass the state's film tax-credit bill in 2026. On the media side, ongoing social and campaign work for organizations that have to stay visible year-round.
Production comes after, if you want it. The same network that priced the plan can build it — directors, editors, photographers and grips who live here and know the ground, assembled for the job and not carried as overhead.

Based & crewed locally
Consulting is the service. Production and ongoing media are what you add once the plan is right.
Before anything gets shot: what the project actually takes, what it should cost, who should be in the room, and whether it's worth doing at all.
Available once the plan is set. Concept through delivery with a full local crew.
The part that keeps working after wrap. Run month to month, not project to project.
Swap these three for your strongest pieces — a PSA, a brand film and an event edit reads well as a set.
Send what you have — a brief, a budget range, or just the problem. We'll tell you what it takes to make it here.
