Why Drua

Why clients hire us, and hire us again.

People open up on camera

Scientists, founders, cast members and first-timers relax with us. We come with questions and talking points, then let the conversation go off script.

We find the story inside the brief

Every brief comes with deliverables. We look past them to the people, the purpose and the moments that make a project worth caring about, and that becomes the heart of what we make.

One shoot, months of content

We plan every piece before the cameras roll, so a two-day event or a single production day keeps your channels full long after we wrap.

Clients come back, and send others

One good project tends to lead to the next. Project Chimera led to AARP, Fujifilm and Kino Flo Lighting Systems, and we’ve now worked with Fujifilm for nearly three years. Dr. Dakotah Tyler introduced us to CEBAS, and we’re in our third year together.
