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.

The Team
Daniel Strasser
Producer
Armed with an MFA and a vision that rivals the greats, Daniel brings Hollywood-level storytelling to Tell Studios. He kicked off his filmmaking journey at 15, mastering the art of captivating audiences before he could even drive.
From learning under an Oscar-nominated director to snagging Best Cinematography awards, Daniel's passion for the craft is as unstoppable as his coffee consumption. At Tell Studios, he's the go-to guy for turning bold ideas into visual masterpieces.
When he's not crafting the next viral video, Daniel's adventuring with his wife and their four fur children. You might catch him hiking in nature or saving virtual worlds in fantasy RPGs.
