Who We Are
Our purpose is simple — to share your purpose.
We created Mission Frame because we believe in storytelling as an act of service. We make video for nonprofits and other mission-driven organizations because we care about the world, and we want to help you change it. We work with environmental movements, community healthcare providers, government agencies and inspired artists to get their message heard and deepen their impact.
When you work with Mission Frame, expect an approach that puts people, culture, and relationships first. We listen, we learn, and we create your story collaboratively. We are kind, communicative, and transparent about the entire video production process. We can’t wait to bring your story to life.
