Nice to meet you!
We’re Arleigh & Nick—two longtime filmmakers and creative partners with a shared love of strong visuals, honest connection, and work that actually feels like the people behind it. Between us, we’ve spent years making films and creative content for brands, businesses, teams, and organizations of all sizes.
We care a lot about craft, and we believe the best work is shaped by people—their point of view, taste, instincts, collaboration, and care.
We hate fun.
Arleigh.
Arleigh brings warmth, instinct, and an immediate sense of connection to the work. She has a way of making people feel seen, relaxed, and genuinely themselves—which tends to make everything better, on camera and off.
Her path into storytelling has taken her far beyond any single lane: filming in prisons in Argentina, South Africa, and across the U.S.; studying filmmaking in South Africa; working in Hong Kong; filming in recovery homes including Union Gospel Mission; producing stories in the North Dakota oil fields; and building a long creative run in fashion with Evereve. In the Twin Cities, she also made a mark at WCCO-TV, where her social-first promotional work caught the attention of CBS in New York and became an example shared across owned-and-operated stations. She has started podcasts, helped pioneer live-selling, faced down Cape cobras in Cape Town, and kept following the human story through all of it.
What ties that range together is not just ambition. It is curiosity, courage, and a real belief in people—their complexity, their worth, and the stories that often get overlooked.
Nick.
Nick brings visual depth, story sense, and a thoughtful eye for the details that shape how a piece feels. He cares deeply about tone, pacing, and making work that is both polished and emotionally grounded.
His path started in local news, sports, and helicopter work at KSTP-TV, but his first production job was as a locations PA on the feature film Joe Somebody in 2001. Early on, he created an Emmy-winning documentary about a MN boxer headed to Madison Square Garden for the title fight of his life—an experience that helped set the tone for what would become a career built at the intersection of strong visuals and real human stakes.
From there, Nick moved through sports documentaries, large-scale commercial production, documentary work, broadcast, and brand storytelling. He has shot commercials with crews dozens strong, including a national spot featuring Oprah, worked on a documentary with Dave Chappelle, contributed to NFL Network/Super Bowl coverage, and spent more than a year following Minnesota Rokkr internationally for a doc series capturing the pressure, personality, and behind-the-scenes rhythm of a professional Call of Duty team. His client work also includes UnitedHealth, Optum, Best Buy, 3M, the Minnesota Vikings, Arctic Cat, and Pentair.
Among the many projects Nick has worked on, The Choo Choo Bob Show holds a special place—especially the Christmas episode, which felt like a joyful, magical nod to Pee-wee’s Playhouse Christmas.
What ties it together is a love of story, a respect for craft, and a steady instinct for finding the emotional center of a piece—whether the production is intimate, fast-moving, or built on a much bigger scale.
&.
Together, we bring different instincts to the same belief: people matter, stories carry worth, and the most memorable work rarely comes from polishing the humanity out of it. Arleigh has a gift for trust, connection, and drawing out what is true. Nick brings visual depth, story instinct, and a feel for the emotional shape of a piece. Somewhere in that overlap is the work we love most—bold, human, textured, and made with real care.
We are drawn to stories with heart, imperfections with character, and the kind of human-made details that make a piece feel true instead of overworked. Whether we are making a flagship film or building ongoing work with a client over time, the goal is the same: make something beautiful, honest, and worth feeling.
Sometimes you just have to make something just to create & have fun. We try to prioritize that when we can to fill our creative cup! Aldi had a streetwear collection drop, so we decided to make a music video!
