OUR PHILOSOPHY
Story is the most powerful force in the universe. We think in story, we dream in story, we teach in story and we learn in story. It is how we make sense of all of life.
An effective story has the power to influence how people think, feel and act. In other words, it has the power to make change, both positively and negatively.
As filmmakers, our highest calling, our “why”, is to leverage the changemaking power of storytelling for the good of mankind. To do this, we believe that we have an obligation to truth in the stories we tell, even when it is uncomfortable or inconvenient.
At Votary Films, we partner with people and organizations who want to make a positive impact through their work and understand the crucial role of storytelling in that pursuit.
Whether you are a business selling a product, a non-profit on a mission, or an artist sharing your gifts, you have a meaningful story to tell.
If you commit to telling that story truthfully you will build trust with your audience, and where you build trust, you will create meaningful connections.
WHY STORIES
The WHY Stories is a mini series where we explore a behind the scenes look at why our team members became storytellers and what their filmmaking journey’s have looked like so far. This is an opportunity to get in our clients and subjects shoes while opening up about what our story is..
The Votary Collective is a network of creatives who can shoot, edit, animate, direct, make music, drink beer and play ping pong.
