About Us

Built on a Better Story

Let's be honest. Most films about architecture and construction are boring. They're all slow motion cranes and dramatic drone shots set to forgettable music. They show a building, but they miss the story inside.

That's why I built the Structural Stories Framework.

It's my blueprint for storytelling, based on science. A process designed to find the human heart of a project and engineer a genuine emotional connection with your audience. I believe the best way to show the value of your work isn't just to show the structure, but to reveal the lives it will touch.

If you're ready for a film that feels as innovative and thoughtfully designed as one of your own projects, we should talk.

Creative Work

Stories We’ve Built

A film is more than a deliverable—it’s proof. Proof that your mission resonates, that your culture is real, and that your impact is human. Each story below is an example of our framework in action, engineered to solve a specific challenge by finding the remarkable story within.

Framework

Our Blueprint for  a Remarkable Story

A great film is never an accident—it’s engineered. Where other companies start with cameras, we begin with a strategic blueprint. The Structural Stories Framework™ is our proven, five-phase process for transforming your mission into a film that moves audiences and achieves your goals. It’s how we provide clarity, mitigate risk, and guarantee a final film as thoughtfully designed as one of your own projects.

Approach

The Difference Is By Design

You’ve likely tried other options to tell your story. But a truly remarkable film requires more than just a good camera or a big agency. It requires a different approach entirely—one that’s built on a strategic, story-first foundation.

The Checklist Approach

Traditional Agencies

They focus on branding and polished visuals, often missing the human story at the core.

Freelancers

You get pretty pictures or a pretty video, but it’s a creative product, not a business tool.

In-House Teams

They're talented but buried in daily demands, making deep, strategic storytelling impossible.

One-Off Projects

They create a single video with a short shelf-life that gets shared once and forgotten.

"Weldon and his team have been our "go-to" crew for more than five years for many reasons. Throughout our long-standing relationship, Weldon has consistently demonstrated exceptional skills and professionalism. His ability to translate our vision into beautiful images and films is truly remarkable. Weldon always delivers outstanding results. The work speaks for itself, and their commitment to excellence ensures that every project is a success."

Bonnie Nicholson

“One of the best I've worked with in my 25 year career as art director. Creative, professional, likable, reliable, and resourceful!”

Maria Bucaro
Bucaro Design

“Weldon is GREAT to work with (and I don't often use All Caps). He's easy going, well prepared, open to ideas but he also brings a vast expertise and insight to our projects. He's the kind of partner I look for because he brings ideas to the table and new ways to look at things. Weldon makes our clients look their absolute best. And his turn time is super fast. Highly recommended.”

Chris Thomas
Cohn Marketing

“I’ve worked with Weldon for more than 15 years, his professionalism and artistic eye has given me the confidence to use him on my most important projects and to recommend him to others. He is flexible and very fair, which in my industry goes a long way as things often change on the fly.”

Steve Jones
SFJones Architects

“Weldon does great work, has a great eye and is easy to work with. We have shot hundreds of photos together. From sunny CA to the frozen tundra of MN in January when we shot the I35 bridge. He is a humble guy and a great talent. Weldon is someone you will want to work with everything you can.”

Frequently Asked Questions

01

How is this different from hiring a videographer?

A videographer’s job is to operate a camera. Our job is to solve a business problem. We start with your strategic goals, not a shot list. You don’t just get a beautiful film; you get a strategic partner and a powerful business asset engineered to deliver a return on your investment.

01

02

We’ve worked with branding agencies before and didn’t see results. How is this different?

Because we are from your world. With 38 years of experience in A/E/C, we speak your language and understand your challenges intimately. Traditional agencies apply an outsider’s branding formula. We use our insider knowledge to uncover the authentic, human story that will actually resonate with your audience and drive results.

01

03

What exactly do we get when we work with you?

You get two things: a powerful final product and total confidence in the process. The product is a cinematic film and visual assets built to achieve your goals. The confidence comes from our Structural Stories Framework™, a proven blueprint that provides clarity, strategic alignment, and a dedicated partner at every step.

01

04

How long does the process take?

A remarkable story can’t be rushed, but it must be efficient. A typical engagement takes 6–10 weeks from our initial strategy session to the final launch. This timeline allows for the deep strategic work that makes our films effective. We provide a clear roadmap from day one and manage the entire process so you can focus on your own work.

01

05

What kind of results should we expect?

You should expect a transformation. Our films are designed to change how people see your brand. For our clients, that has meant winning landmark projects they were previously losing, attracting top-tier talent that was out of reach, and finally having a story that makes their entire team feel seen, understood, and proud.
