Most recently, we had the opportunity to collaborate with Flightless Bird Creative on the production of a documentary film and on the editing of an original narrative short film. Both experiences were thoughtfully organized, on schedule, professional and fun. We especially are drawn to Flightless Bird's care and positive dynamic. They make you feel like yours is the only project they're working on, and they are willing to work within various budgets and schedules. They are quickly becoming part of our film-production family.

Overall Experience: We worked with Flightless Bird on 2 videos - one for storytelling of our brand and the other was a animated video to educate about our products. Both processes were very easy and the whole team is very responsive. We were a bit nervous for the interview portion of the storytelling video, but they made us feel comfortable and really listened to what we wanted to capture. We were blown away by the end product and are very happy that we have this video for all of our consumers and B2B customers to refer to it. It really tells the story of us and how our brand came to be in a short amount of time. We would definitely recommend working with them as we plan to on future projects.

Overall Experience: In a corporate landscape, timelines are crucial. Flightless Bird has come through on some very challenging and tight timelines for product/corporate videos for me. Kevin and his crew go the extra mile and are very accomodating and supportive throughout the whole video production process. They take my ideas and run with them! I highly recommend Flightless Bird for any of your marketing/video needs.
