JELLYFISH

JELLYFISH is a short film produced by C&I Studios.

The film was written by the lead actress, Katherine Montgomery, and directed by our good friend Joe Perri.

 

Joe is a photographer by trade — an excellent one at that! Check out his artist profile! But he wanted to explore the intricacies of directing Film. Katherine’s script proved to be a great introduction for him, so we lent our services and helped them bring their passion project to life.

We love Film. And we love being a resource for those who do, too.

In the case of Jellyfish, we had the tools, the software, the expertise, and the strong arm in production. Katherine had a fully hashed out script. And Joe had a plan to execute her vision. So, we collaborated to create this fine work of art.

 

At the end of the day, we love films. It’s why we got into the content creation business. When we meet people who are equally passionate and just as curious as we are, we often do what we can to help them execute their art. This was a great project to work on and we are thrilled with how it turned out.

These Frame Grabs are some of our favorites.

We capture moments in everything we film. These instances, though they are part of a constant flow of visuals, stand out independently and elevate the meaning of certain scenes.

 

It’s really quite captivating when a sequence stops and all the viewer can interpret is that very moment. It’s why we showcase frame grabs of our films. Each still holds power.

 

If you watched the film above, we encourage you to explore the frame grabs below. Analyze them, feel them, breathe in their colors, then go back and rewatch Jellyfish. Will those scenes impact you differently now that you have a new perspective?

American Apparel Advertising Campaign

This is a project we worked on with American Apparel.

 

We shot the commercial in our Fort Lauderdale studio, and some of the models we used included some of our own staff which made it an enjoyable experience for the team.

 

Working with American Apparel on this proved to be way more play than work. It’s no wonder they’re the sartorial monolith they are today.

The Broward Center for the Performing Arts

The Broward Center

The Broward Center opened it’s doors during February 1991. This year marked the 25th anniversary of the center serving Fort Lauderdale as the main hub for performing arts in the city. In celebration, they commissioned the following video to help commemorate the positive impact the center has had with bringing culture to Fort Lauderdale and South Florida as a whole.

This series of videos we did for the Broward Center for the Performing Arts are as close to our hearts as they are to theirs. We put our hearts and souls into every moment of this project. We took every step, from the conception and fundraising, to the documentation of the finalized pavilion with them. We’re proud to have been part of this journey, in not only making The Broward Center for the Performing Arts more complete, but in helping to enrich the culture of our city.

 

The first video is the first we ever created for the Broward Center. We basically lived at the Broward Center for a few weeks collecting all of the footage for this video. It was an awesome experience getting able to see a different side of Fort Lauderdale – of people expressing themselves through art and culture. The idea, was to create this video for a fundraising gala they put on in order to do an expansion. They ended up raising millions of dollars with the help of this video, which was premiered at the gala.

 

The second video encompasses the Broward Center’s rededication. Our entire Florida staff, again, put in some serious hard work to make this happen. From loading the car with gear, to acting, and staying up late editing, this was definitely a team effort. We feel extraordinarily fortunate for having such a beautiful and complete community working along side both C&I and the folks at the Broward Center.

 

The third video of the series, was catered to shooting the grand opening of the Huizenga Pavilion. We took our camera and acquired footage of the catering, the layout, and the general feel of the space to properly display the new possibilities that the pavilion has to offer. The relationship we’ve built with our friends at The Broward Center continues to strengthen seeing as our values for the arts and creativity mirror theirs. We look forward to see the growth continue to flourish for the folks at the Broward Center and for Fort Lauderdale as a whole.
