How we work
We turn your brand video into a strategic tool for authentic connection.
When you work with 515 Productions, you get:
A story-first strategy – We help you clarify what to say and why it matters to your audience.
Cinematic quality – We use the same high-end video cameras trusted by Hollywood film producers, and we use a light touch that brings authenticity forward.
Emotional resonance – We craft narratives that go beyond facts—into feeling. That’s where the real connection happens.
Strategic distribution – From timing and format to channels and cadence, we help you get your content in front of the right people, in the right way—so your message lands and drives results.
It all begins with…
Strategic Video Planning
“If a tree falls in a forest…” You know the rest. The same goes for content—without the right strategy behind it, even the best story goes unheard. That’s where Lynn comes in. With deep experience across journalism, agency, and corporate comms, she works alongside you to make sure your message lands—on time, on brand, and in all the right places. From audience targeting to channel strategy (and all the spreadsheets that go with it), she connects the dots so your brand video gets seen and delivers results.
Creative Development
Your first frame matters—because it’s your first chance to spark a feeling. Doesn’t matter if we’re talking about brand storytelling or corporate video production. We believe the most powerful content starts with real human connection. At 515 Productions, creative development begins by asking: How will this moment make someone feel? From there, we build the story backwards—starting with the visual that pulls people in and earns their attention. We use the camera as a visual storytelling engine, not just a tool, to craft authentic, emotionally-driven content that breaks through the noise and builds trust with your audience. Here’s an example.
Pre-Production
Need a nimble film crew or a full-scale commercial video production team? We scale to fit your vision. From scouting the perfect location to bringing in drones, grip trucks, talent, and top-tier crews, we handle it all. Whether your shoot calls for four people or twenty-five, we’ve got the network and know-how to make it seamless. Oh, and our craft services? Let’s just say your team won’t go hungry.
Video Production
In a world full of content, standing out takes more than a good idea—it takes exceptional execution. That’s why we use the same cameras trusted by Hollywood, like the ARRI Alexa and RED V-RAPTOR, to give your brand video a cinematic edge that cuts through the noise. These tools don’t just look impressive—they help you tell your story with the kind of clarity, emotion, and polish your competitors can’t match. And while our visuals are high-stakes, our vibe on set isn’t. We’re a friendly crew that makes everyone feel at ease—so the best moments can happen naturally and authentically.

Post-Production
Back in the edit bay, we bring your brand story to life—polishing every frame with expert color grading, sound mixing, motion graphics, and more. And when it comes to music, Ian has a knack for finding the perfect track to match the mood and elevate the moment. It’s the kind of finishing touch that gives your audience goosebumps—and gives your video staying power. And if we’re on the road, we can edit from anywhere. This video was cut together from the back of Ian’s truck.
