Meet Chynna Monforte (she/they): artist, revolutionary, and founder of Monforte Studio. Chynna’s not just a creative—she’s a force, unapologetically standing for her queer, Latinx, and BIPOC communities. To Chynna, business is deeply personal, a platform for change and authenticity. Monforte Studio is where aesthetics, advocacy, and audacity meet. It’s a web design space that speaks truth—acknowledging stolen land, supporting Black and trans lives, and pushing for decolonization in work-life balance. Chynna’s journey began with juggling multiple jobs, but the pandemic led her to fully embrace her creative talents and launch her own business in 2020. She didn’t plan her path, but that’s what makes her work shine. For Chynna, business isn’t just about profit—it’s about living her values. "I personally think there’s no other way to run a business," she says. Her community-based approach has paid off, with 90% of her clients coming from direct referrals. Success, for Chynna, is living authentically and making an impact. “I feel like I made it right now. I get to be myself unapologetically and work with amazing clients.” Discover how Chynna is shaping the future of business with authenticity and audacity at the link below. https://lnkd.in/gBGBeH9f #businessstorytelling #businesscommunity #entrepreneurship #solopreneurship #freelancing

Early holiday spirit? Here's a holiday promo clip Dennis Belogorsky and his crew from Brand New Films had fun shooting this summer (Xmas in July). While his primary focus has been on mid-stage startup branding video needs, including customer success storytelling, I enjoy seeing his creative work supporting all sorts of companies.

🚨🚨🚨New work alert!🚨🚨🚨 We don’t do a ton of these kinds of videos, but props to Alvys for seeing the value in creating a short intro video that takes the anxiety out of the software onboarding process for their new customers and prospects.

Another fantastic Collective member story we filmed last year. Please follow Howie Chan - he's doing a lot of great things on here and is a total superstar on and off camera.

Our latest work!

It's #pridemonth! Here's a video we filmed for Collective earlier this year that highlights the stories of several LGBTQ #solopreneurs. It was amazing to learn about all the unique ways that folks discover themselves and build businesses around their values and convictions. More great stories to come throughout June and beyond!

Meet Collective member Lisa Devenny, owner of Rockfish Design Studio. Branding extraordinaire, web design guru, and military wife are a few ways to describe Lisa. Although marketing and branding are Lisa’s passions, it wasn’t always like this. Lisa found herself jumping into self-employment in 2020 after being laid off. While Lisa’s husband is deployed, she fills her time with her clients, focusing all her energy on bringing their brand vision to life. Lisa states, “I love working with people who have a passion floating in their head. When they work with me, we turn it into a real and tangible thing. Seeing their passion translate into a whole business is inspiring to me.” You can read more about Lisa’s story at the link below. https://lnkd.in/gtP6gxq6 #businessstorytelling #businescommunity #entrepreneurship #selfemployed #graphicdesign #marketingguru

🚨🚨🚨New work alert!🚨🚨🚨 Here're the highlights from the URx 2024 Conference that took place 2 weeks ago in Las Vegas. My team supported the event with video and photography production and this was one of the friendliest, most fun, and most down-to-earth events we ever covered. Big shout out to Wahab Owolabi, Charlene Delapena, Kathleen Merto, Carmela Escarez, Carolynn Choi and the rest of the URx team for bringing us on. To even bigger and better things later this year and in 2025!

One of the best parts of working in a creative industry is collaborating with fellow creatives wherever the job takes you. Last week we spent a few days filming in San Antonio for Alvys. I never worked with Jonathan Williams before, but we hit it off from the get go and it felt like we worked together for years. I should also mention that he has an awesome grip truck! Can’t recommend Jonathan enough and can’t wait to show off our finished work. #videoproduction #collaboration #creativeindustry
