We create meaningful art to connect people with their humanity, share stories that bring us closer to each other, and lift up voices and concepts that are neglected by imperialism.

Kindness and openness are integral to our work, and we infuse each project with genuine humanity and heartfelt creativity.

Our work explores intentional storytelling with sincerity and collaboration.

Since 2014, we have created original productions and cultivated long-term creative partnerships with artists, musicians, and performers.

our team

Steven Jon
they/he

Steven is a multi-passionate director, photographer, and producer. Their film work carries an authenticity that reveals emotional nuance. Everything goes back to Lego for Steven. Taking the pieces available and putting them together in a way that flows into something beautiful, fun, and compelling. Their directing style infuses a playful energy with precise focus. Steven loves long walks with a good playlist, being silly with his partner Jenny, and playing with their cat Mango.

Kara Lieff
she/they

Kara produces, directs, and assists visual media creation with a heart for both creativity and logistics. She won Most Precise at her preschool Superlative Award ceremony and is proud to bring this reassuring attention to detail to every project. They have many credits across the documentary, narrative and music video genres, and enjoy inviting people into memorable experiences through their work as a dancer, musician, and - as some may say - your favorite on-set “Resident Advisor”. Kara loves being cozy at home, traveling to new places, and playing with her cats Pistachio and Ramina.
