We are proud to work alongside organizations that inspire and uplift our community, and Saint Louis Dance Theatre is one such organization. They seamlessly blend world-class dance with a passion for collaboration and artistic excellence, using dance as an instrument of optimism - bringing people together.
This film was created to launch Saint Louis Dance Theatre's rebrand after a decade of performance. As the company unveiled a bold new identity, the film invites viewers to reimagine all that they can be - blending artistry, legacy, community, and a forward-looking vision in under three minutes. Our St. Louis film crew shaped that vision into a cohesive cinematic experience - collaborating with dancers who are not actors, and guiding them to deliver emotion, presence, and narrative without words. Every moment was crafted to reflect the spirit of the company and its evolution through movement, visual storytelling, and tone.
We’ve had the privilege of filming numerous projects with them over the years, helping bring their mission and vision to life on the screen. Their unwavering dedication to their craft shines through in every project, making every film an opportunity to showcase the transformative power of the arts.
