Media Matters in Marketing Videos, Photography, Documentary Films, Animation, Media Publishing, and Consulting.
“May the Force be with you.” This is a line from Star Wars, 1977. That was over 40 years ago, and the words still stir our collective memories. Storytelling leaves a lasting impression on us. Films and images catch our attention and hold our interest, connecting on the levels of mind and heart. This is the way media matters.
Photos and videos give us something more than storytelling and advertising—they help to shape the world. Media makers play a role in generating a desirable future through the power of visualization. We clarify ideas, foster creativity, motivate action, and manifest positive outcomes.

Marketing Videos
Interior designer Jenna Roach showcases merchandise at Ashley Homestore's “Million Dollar Sales Event” in San Antonio, Texas.
Highlight your company’s products and services with a memorable video—the most effective way to engage with customers. Today's best videos make a great first impression through authenticity, with spoken words and candid action. These videos leave a lasting final impression too. If your goal is genuine connection, then we recommend starting with a documentary-style promo video that is real, raw, and relatable.
What type of marketing video is right for you? Is your goal entertainment, education, or something in between? In our experience, businesses prefer to begin with the following marketing videos:
Business Profiles: Introduce the people behind the brand, and the offerings.
Testimonials: Boost credibility through satisfied customers.
Instructional Videos: Extend the reach of the teachers.
Commercials: Stir the emotions through persuasive storytelling.

Documentary Filmmaking
We had the pleasure of interviewing some of Austin's weirdest, wildest, and wisest media makers for a TV docuseries called “Created Here,” premiering at the Sundance Film Festival.
Documentary filmmaking is our most powerful tool for massive social change. Thanks to documentary films, we live in a world where voices are heard, injustices are exposed, and positive change is within reach. That's the power to spark conversations, challenge perceptions, and inspire action.
At Arise, we wish to change the “starving artist” stereotype by showcasing outstanding artworks and artists. An example of this is the Created Here documentary TV series, featuring two prolific Austin artists who deserve a worldwide audience: Mike “Truth” Johnston and Pooneh Ghana.
Do you have a story of passion? What kind of film is right for your path? Documentaries come in all shapes and sizes:
Journalism: Change the world through truthful footage and photos.
Family Keepsakes: Remember and re-live special occasions.
Art Films: Make a statement to encourage, inspire, and illuminate.
Docuseries + Podcasts: Lead a movement through space and time.
