MVP / Good People

We love finding creative solutions to interesting problems! Max describes how we got creative, did some trial and error, and eventually built our own camera rig to go above and beyond for a client. As you know, we create marketing videos and commercial cinematography for agencies and bold brands, but ultimately what we’re delivering is peace of mind. On budget and on time is our company mission, and “no” isn’t in our vocabulary; instead we prefer the improv motto of “yes, and…”. If you can dream it, we want to do it. Know someone who loves our mission as much as we do?

At MVP / Good People, we prioritize clarity and client satisfaction from the outset of every project. Our method involves creating storyboard animatics and live-action pre-visualizations before the shoot. This approach, detailed in a tutorial video by our Head of Post-Production, Eric Wahlstrom, enhances client comprehension of our vision, ensuring a smoother journey from production to post-production.
