Business Details
We were founded by Niels Melo, who began his Bay Area career directing live news and TV station programming while shooting and editing his own program elements. For more than four decades, we have delivered top-quality video production services to a wide variety of clients across diverse industries. Our experience, resources, versatility and creativity meet the demands of today's broadcast and corporate customers. We have produced over 1,000 live entertainment and sports telecasts, including Miss America State Finals in Texas for 23 years, as well as events in California and Florida. Our broadcast portfolio covers Cal, Stanford and Raiders football; NBA, ABL and college basketball; NASL soccer and World Team Tennis. We also create holiday specials, movie junkets, awards shows, AIDS benefits and program elements for PBS, Discovery, CNBC and all CBS network news shows.
Corporate clients such as Apple, BMC, BroadcastMed, Shaklee and Wells Fargo rely on us for marketing videos, large events and training productions. We have produced training videos for Bank of America, EPK's for TiVo and live-streamed webcasts for Glassdoor, Merck and Salesforce. Beyond video, we contribute to content development, staging and presentation design for every project we undertake. Our performing-arts niche includes hundreds of film and video projects with major dance and theatre companies like the Mark Morris Dance Group and San Francisco Ballet. More than sixty of those works are permanently housed in the research collections of The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts at Lincoln Center.
