Who We Are


Who We Are


Alive Motion Pictures was founded in 2006 with the vision of creating inspiring media through great story-telling.  We produce original television programs, branded content videos, and commercials.

We work closely with clients to determine and deliver the optimal creative vision for each project.  Our philosophy is simple: we care about the details.

We are a horizontally integrated company that employs the same production methods that make major motion pictures and national commercial spots a success: hiring the right people and right tools for each job…  This keeps the client costs low, and quality high.

Creating motion pictures is all we do.
