We believe in the collective storytelling experience. People gathered round, in rapt attention, looking to be taken on a journey. Stories told that make you laugh, cry, and think. Ideas that start conversations, bring people together and move audiences.
LET'S TELL A STORY
We are a full service video production company. It all starts with a good story and we can help, from concept to delivery. Our video capabilities include concept creation, script writing, storyboarding, and filming.
We have a great story and beautiful footage, now it’s time to put it all together. Footage is cut, trimmed, and arranged with the perfect song or score to communicate the best story and captivate your audience.
We create animations that stand alone or pair well with video footage. Our motion graphics will grab viewers’ attention whether they are used to explain a full process or simply accent a feature of your story.
Portico Pictures offers a full service production studio for creative projects, productions, and events. The White Space is 1,500 sq. ft. with 14 ft ceilings and roll up bay door for load in. The White Space is filled with natural light. We also provide access to multiple backdrops, lighting, grip, and video equipment.
We work with clients both big and small. Clients with stories to tell & audiences to reach. With a network rivaling that of the Los Angeles and New York video production scene, we are able to work both across the nation and around the globe. Our body of work is as diverse as the skill set we bring to every project.
Research
Learning about the subject is perhaps the most important step. We ask questions, observe, and do whatever it takes to learn your story so we can help you tell it. We also explore what others have done and what we can do differently for you.
Concept
Creating your story should be as fun for you as it is for us. Working together, we will brainstorm and storyboard what style and language is best to make the biggest impact.
Setup
Amazing shots require a thorough setup. We work on-site or in our studio to perfect lighting and other environmental factors. This ensures that we achieve beautiful shots from start to finish.
Film
As we shoot, we work closely with you and focus on what matters most to your story. Our goal being to make the process both comfortable and enjoyable.
Edit
We arrange and enhance our shots in a way that compliments the narrative. Viewers are fully immersed into the setting, while music is seamlessly paired to enhance the experience. It's these final touches that take your story from interesting to captivating.
Fellow photographers, videographers, agencies, and creatives, Portico Pictures has a full-service studio called The White Space with props and equipment, available for rent.
