Tibbs Inc.

Tibbs takes Detroit! We just wrapped an incredible 5-day shoot for our latest Ford Pro production, working alongside some of the city’s best crews and clients. Huge thanks to Ford and VML for keeping this project local and giving us the chance to do what we do best – capturing that sheet metal in style.

Episode One of "Designing Sanctuary" is now live, featuring the world-renowned designer Corey Damen Jenkins. Directed by Kurt Andrew Schneider and Brandon Rottman, this project brings to life the all-new 2025 Lincoln Navigator. Matthew McConaughey lends his iconic voice as the narrator for our Lincoln release video. In this episode, we take you on a journey as we transform a stunning house in Carmel, California, into a sanctuary inspired by the luxurious interior of the Navigator. We followed Jenkins to his Manhattan studio to see how he customized the build. Stay tuned for Episode Two to see how it all comes together.

Summer has been flying by, and the Tibbs team has been hard at work. From the Golden Gate Bridge to the Statue of Liberty, we've been busy filming new and exciting cars and stories. We were delighted to catch up with friends and colleagues at the D-Show, where Tibbs was nominated in two categories. Additionally, we took home an award at the 2024 Telly Awards for our production with director Derek Smith, "Out The Trunk" for Ford starring DJ Envy. Kurt Schneider and Brandon Rottman are wrapping up an exciting Lincoln premiere, while Amara Untermeyer prepares to release her new national HealthCare.Gov campaigns, and Jerome Wald III has been busy shooting running footage packages across the country. We also have new releases for Buick, the University of Michigan, and a handful of shorts, music videos, and spec projects coming later this summer. Stay tuned for more updates, and have a fantastic rest of your summer!

Director Brandon Rottman brings a special film to life for the University of Michigan-Flint. Often referred to as the 'other' little brother to the Ann Arbor campus, this film explores a vibrant and culturally expansive campus thriving in the heart of Flint. Brandon's lens captures real students from all over the world, following their dreams and making them a reality. This film beautifully highlights the unique spirit and diversity of UM-Flint, showcasing a campus that's truly alive with ambition and potential.

Director Brandon Rottman has once again brought his unique vision to life with a colorful real-patient testimonial campaign in collaboration with the team at FleishmanHillard. This project was a labor of love, taking months to find the perfect patients from across the US and London, UK. Through a meticulous collaboration with the creative team, we crafted a one-of-a-kind studio built from the ground up at the Cadieux stage complex in Detroit. As the house lights dimmed and the cameras started rolling, Brandon's guidance led to capturing the patients' authentic stories and triumphs. The outcome is both heartwarming and inspiring.

When it comes to capturing dynamic and breathtaking automotive footage, there's no better Director/DP than our maestro of the lens, Jerome Wald III. From running footage to extreme driving scenes, Jerome's mastery brings automotive filming to life with jaw-dropping precision. Picturesque driving sequences? Precision driving choreography? Cars hitting jumps and triggering explosions? Need a helicopter shot in the most remote and extreme locations on Earth? Jerome's got you covered. Jerome runs his crew like a well-oiled—or electric—vehicle: efficient, precise, and always on point. His exceptional eye ensures that cars look drop-dead gorgeous, capturing every detail and movement with unparalleled finesse. As always, we’re looking forward to creating something extraordinary together ✌️

Tibbs went diving into the world of virtual production, teaming up with Golden Hour Studios to bring it all to life. This collaboration opens up endless possibilities for creativity and imagination as we leverage cutting-edge tools for the future of filmmaking. Our latest project showcases the incredible synergy between Unreal Engine's volume wall tech and practical set design, setting a new standard for immersive storytelling. #VirtualProduction #UnrealEngine #InnovationInFilm
