One of our core values is education.  We love learning and we love teaching.  We’ve strived to create an internship program where students get to have real world experiences within a photo + video studio.  It’s been a privilege to serve the interns that have come through our doors over the years and it’s time once again to bring in s’more.

This summer we are looking for 4 interns to work at Epic Motion and our commercial brand  Tell (if you have no idea what Tell is, it’s Epic Motion’s sister company that focuses on commercial projects: www.gototell.com).  Here’s a brief description on each of the internships we’re offering this summer:

Filmmaking Internship
The Intern will get experience shooting events as well as internal videos and (not sure what we call “produced business/non-profit stuff that isn’t events) using DSLR cameras and other professional equipment. Other elements that will be taught include both pre and post production. S/he will work closely with Tell’s lead filmmakers and production staff. The intern will have daily exercises in filmmaking as well as a final project that will be a collaborative piece with the other interns

Editing Internship

Marketing Internship
The Intern will get experience working with current marketing plans as well as have opportunities to create and present his/her own. Areas of focus will include developing new campaigns, social media management, and graphic design. Intern will work with the Director of Marketing.

Inspired by my good friend and filmmaker Matt Davis, here is our look back at 2011.


2011 was a year filled with achievements, life lessons, and love. I’m so thankful. Grateful for this company, grateful for those with whom I work, and grateful for the family and friends in my life. My life is FULL.

This is not meant to be a bragging list… please know that my intent in sharing our successes as a business and as individuals is to encourage and to help others move forward.

Badges Received

Named Top 25 Studios in the World by EventDV // This was so super exciting to me. I remember four years ago writing this on a list of future goals and thinking it was unattainable. This was a good life lesson for me: Setting goals that are bigger than myself and seemingly to hard to achieve make it that much sweeter when achieved. If my goals aren’t huge, what the heck is the point of all of this anyway? I don’t want to pursue mediocrity. No thanks. Not for me.

The snow is melting, the birds are chirping, and love is in the air. In honor of Valentine’s Day and as a way to introduce myself I decided to compile a list of my favorite love songs of all time. But then I thought about how daunting that task would be (I mean, who can write a better love song than Marvin Gaye or Sam Cooke?), so I shortened my reach and settled on my top ten favorite love songs of the 21st century. So without further ado, here they are:

Ben Folds: The Luckiest (Rocking The Suburbs, 2001)

Wilco: I’m The Man Who Loves You (Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, 2002)

The Flaming Lips: Do You Realize?? (Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots, 2002)

The Postal Service: Such Great Heights (Give Up, 2003)

The holidays are upon us, and that means it’s time for the Epic Motion Christmas Card. We decided that being a production company, a print card just was not enough to capture our team’s holiday spirit. That being said, please enjoy this awesome Christmas video card!!

Merry Christmas and happy holidays! Wishing nothing but the best to you and yours.

Love,
The Epic Motion Crew.

We have started offering a new product that our couples (and the recipients) are going CAH-RAZY over. It’s a different approach to the traditional “Thank You” cards that get sent after the wedding…

Here’s the video that went along with the DVD.

Check it. Order it. Love it.

One of the great qualities of our team is that we have FUN.

Oh yeah, we make killer wedding films, too… but we REALLY have fun doing it!

PS. Props to the great team of people we worked with this weekend at Paul and Melody’s wedding… Lia at Full Circle Eventi (BEAUTIFULLY done), Dave at The Lighting Guy (always AWESOME), Shutterbooth (so.much.FUN), photography by Suman (great work, man!), and the beautiful flowers by Corrina at Petit Fleur (wow!).
