- Experienced Crew
Our crew base is comprised of hard-working, talented professionals, both union and non-union, who have experience in the LA and New York markets but prefer to live and work in Minnesota. This means you can rely on the talent we have here, which equals greater savings for your production's budget. - 2

The Twin Cities are home to a large community of professional actors who make their living acting in commercials, features, TV, corporate productions and appearing in productions staged by our many (75+) working theater companies. - 3

You've heard about our winter. But did you know that we also have three other beautiful seasons, each rich in its own colors, foliage and landscapes? - 6
- Locations
Minnesota has urban, suburban, small town and rural locations and a wide range of looks and topography. You'll find farmland, prairie, lakes, forests, Main Street, the rocky Lake Superior shoreline and the urban sensibility of the Twin Cities. Plus, there's no location "burn-out." Our locations are new, fresh and inexpensive relative to other major markets.
