Chico Commercial Video Production - Otto Construction Promotional Film - Living the Legacy

We recently have had the pleasure of working with a handful of awesome local businesses in Northern California and beyond! This is the story of a family owned Sacramento-based business, founded in 1947. With a focus on honesty, integrity and compassion for others, Otto Construction continues to pass along the legacy that has been passed down from generation to generation! 

Otto Construction is based in Sacramento but has worked on many local projects here in Chico like some new Chico State buildings and the new courthouse off Bruce Road. They also do projects all over Sacramento and even down in Monterey area! Working with Otto on this online business promotional film was a great experience. 

It was an honor to capture the story of a local business who is making a huge impact on the North State!

The Adventure of Ned Hawkins - WWII Vet & Silver Star Medal Recipient

We were so thrilled when Ned's relatives contacted us about capturing his story in a short form documentary style as a gift for his eight grandchildren for Christmas. While we finished this piece a bit ago, we've had to keep it under wraps until today. We're proud to present this amazing story of Ned Hawkins and how he saved four B-17 crew member's lives in WWII. Grab some popcorn and enjoy the short film below :)

Chico Commercial Filmmaker - Athlete Committed Promotional Film

It's so fun seeing long term projects like this come together in the editing room. For this promotional video for the Chico Athlete Committed program, we filmed over the course of one entire school year. From the heated rivalry at Almond Bowl, to the big Chico vs PV basketball game at Chico State, we covered it all. Trying to represent this many local Chico sports was a challenge, but seeing it all come together in the end made it all worth it! John Shepard, principal of Pleasant Valley High School, was great to work with, willing to be the inspiring voiceover for this piece. As well as Jim Hanlon, principal of Chico High, who made time to make sure we could all the shots we needed. Butte County Department of Behavioral Health was behind this project, and it wouldn't have come together without the hard work of Ryan Gulbrandsen and Danelle Campbell! The whole team at Butte County Department of Behavioral Health does such amazing work with the youth here in Chico and it has been a huge pleasure to work with them over the years on projects like this and others.

Thank you to all the student athletes who were willing to be apart of the making of this promotional film, you will inspire others for years to come!
