How We Roll (aka Our Proven Process)
Because you donât need more contentâyou need content that works.
1. Strategy â Clarity Before Cameras
No guessing games here. We kick things off with a strategy session that gets to the heart of your message, your audience, and what you actually need your videos to do. Itâs like a brand therapy sessionâbut way more fun.
2. Creative â Make It Real. Make It Soulful.
This is where the magic happens. We plan, film, and edit videos that feel human, not hype-y. The kind of content your audience wants to watchâand remembers.
3. Implementation â Get It Out There
No more ânow what?â after your video is done. We help you launch it, post it, slice it into social content, and use it in all the right placesâso your video isnât just pretty, itâs profitable.
Our Mission
Science has shown that storytelling has the power to activate the imagination and emotions in the brain, making it a highly effective tool for inspiring and motivating your audience.
By sharing stories of transformation and passion, we can help you capture attention, build trust, and drive real results for your business.
We consider ourselves successful when we are able to tell the genuine story of your brand, capturing its heart and soul, and sharing its positive impact on the world with your audience.
Core Values
HUMBLE
Stay grounded, keep things light and fun, and always be the loudest cheerleader for others' victories.
HUNGRY
Let your passion light the way, dive into the deep end of opportunities, and always be the first to yell, 'I’m in!'
HEART
Show off your emotional muscles, listen with the empathy of a best friend, and build a work family you'd happily invite to your backyard cookout.
MEET
The Team
Nick Stevenson, Lead Editor
From studio assistant to Lead Editor, Nick's journey at Tell Studios is a testament to his passion and skill. He's the one transforming raw footage into compelling stories that captivate audiences - and he makes it look easy.
Nick's love for filmmaking started in high school media production classes and never let up. His experience both behind and in front of the camera brings a unique perspective to every project.
When he's not at the studio crafting perfect cuts, Nick's probably at the gym, belting out tunes, or diving into the latest blockbuster for "research."
Fun Facts:
- Triple threat: Editor, cameraman, and actor
- Karaoke champion (self-proclaimed)
- His dad was Ryan's college professor (small world, huh?)
Randy Verano, Executive AssistantÂ
Randy keeps Tell Studios runningâseamlessly switching between finance, admin, training, and occasionally, unofficial studio mascot. If something needs organizing, tracking, or gently nudging forward, she's already on it.
Her instinct for helping others succeed led her into training early on, and eventually into the Executive Assistant role, where her reliability and problem-solving skills keep the rest of us from falling apart.
Don't let the "gets stuff done" energy fool youâoutside of work, Randy is a full-on dance machine.
Fun Facts:
- Doesn't drink coffee (yes, really)
- 80% of her playlist is Korean, despite not speaking the language
- Her dad played one of the goons in late '90s action movies
Bill Solina, Project Manager
Bill loves strategy games, and he brings the same mindset to workâfiguring out how all the pieces fit, keeping projects running smoothly, and turning production chaos into something that actually makes sense.
He started at Tell Studios as a graphic artist, and while his design skills got him noticed, it was his attention to detailâand his tendency to overthinkâthat made him a natural fit for project management. (A curse in life, a superpower in production.)
Fun Facts:
- Can draw PokĂŠmon from memory
- Can name almost every sports bike
- Has a daughter who calls him "dude"
Ryan Koral, Founder
With over 20 years as a documentary filmmaker and entrepreneur, Ryan is all about crafting authentic stories that inspire action and drive business growth. He's the mastermind behind Tell Studios' "video with soul" approach.
Happily married for 23 years (yes, his wife still loves him!), Ryan's a proud dad of three kids and one cuddly pup named Koda. When he's not dreaming up big ideas, you'll find him cracking dad jokes, hanging with friends and family, or possibly in the middle of a meaningful conversation.
Fun Facts:
- Yoda impression expert
- Audible addict
- Lover of Peanut M&Ms and Reese's Cups
