Our Mission
My team and I come from small communities that often are underserved from a multitude of angles. We understand the struggle behind having your voice heard. Because of this, we tend to focus on serving those that need our help! Sometimes video production can seem like some over whelming entity and sometimes the AVERAGE approach can seem that way. We tend to take a little more laid back approach to capturing your stories. Often times taking the time to make sure our clients are comfortable with us and our presence. That is what makes us different. Our care for honoring the people we are working for. We want to create you the best product we can within your budget and expected outcome expectations.

“ Mr Sims is one of the best filmmakers in New Mexico his work on documentary film making is to be admired. He captures the truth ”
- Dr. Karen Sanchez-Griego Educational Administrator
It all started when…
I am from Acoma Pueblo, New Mexico. A small Native American Pueblo in Western New Mexico. Many consider our community one of the longest continuously inhabited in North America. It a special place, filled with culture and history. Oddly enough media is central to my story and the story of Acoma. Many films where shot there early in cinema history. I heard stories of these films as a kid and it set a foundation of being intrigued with cinema and the camera as a medium. My great grandfather had be given a set of on set photos from the 1941 production Sundown. Seeing the behind the scenes of my community turned into a movie set never left me. I was hooked.
Now that I look back upon it, I guess I kinda knew what I wanted to do as a kid. I loved late night tv and would spend hours interviewing my stuffed animals and GI Joes. Graduated high school with the immediate goal of needing to get my hands on a camera. I enrolled in the Journalism program at NMSU and found a job at Agricultural Communications. The listing said: Production Assistant, Must be able to lift 50lbs and stand for long hours. ‘i can do that!” I thought. What it was was an introduction to a career. This small outfit created documentaries around the world. Totally separate from the University Communications dept. I hit the knowledge jackpot. For the next 5 years, I spent every living moment learning my craft from 30yr professionals. I cut on the latest non liner editors at the time, shot with gear only major companies could dream of owning. They taught me everything I know professionally and to this day I give them thanks for that.
So fast forward 15 years, and I have been working as a freelance media creator since the day I left school. I have had stints in news, as a college instructor, master control operator of a TV station, soundman and most recently an appointed public official for my tribal community. I have traveled the globe and would love to see more of our small world. You get back what you put out into the world. I try and remember that daily. That’s me in a nut shell.
