hello, I am a producer/director/filmmaker/visual storyteller. My heart work is in cultural documentaries, both long and short form. I learned my craft working in public television and then as an independent. I like finding stories that give voice to issues through intimate encounters with everyday people. I like to understand complex stories and focus them into accessible pieces. As people tell me their stories and share their intimate feelings, I understand that these stories can change the world. I think there is no more powerful form of connecting than visual storytellingconnecting truth, ideas and the essence of what it means to be a human being in a broken world. I am an intrepid maker. I have 28 years experience and have learned how to respectfully and kindly not take no for an answer. I am particularly attracted to social justice issues involving women, youth and cultural identity. I have a great interest in culture and the arts, the environment and relationships between disparate groups of people. The stories I seek are usually about resiliency and how people make chaos into order or not. I have a Canon c-100 camera and can go anywhere with it.

After graduating from Creighton University in Omaha, I moved back to my hometown of Kansas City to join Time Warner Cable SportsChannel, formerly known as Metro Sports. I started as the high school freelance sideline reporter before working full-time in Lincoln, Nebraska, where I spent three and a half years reporting on the Cornhuskers and Omaha Storm Chasers. Wherever the Huskers were, I was close behind. In June 2014, TWC transferred me back to KC where I spent the majority of my time covering the Kansas Jayhawks, Kansas City Chiefs, Kansas City Royals and local KC high school athletics. Whether it was reporting about the Kansas City Chiefs’ first playoff victory in two decades or bringing Royals fans inside the clubhouse for a rowdy World Series celebration 29 years in the making, I loved every minute of being a sports reporter. In January 2017, my husband and I moved to St. Paul, Minnesota and I opened my own company, Falco Creative Media, a video production company. My ultimate goal is to capture and create innovative, unique video marketing content that makes my clients happy. I am dedicated to translating your vision into exceptional, compelling video that reaches and engages with your target audience. I strive to exceed expectations during production and post-production to make sure deadlines are met and the highest quality video is delivered. The driving force comes from my passion for videography, storytelling and editing. I am here to showcase your business, bring awareness to your brand and keep you relevant in today’s market.

I am an editorial photographer and DP/cinematographer specializing in the fields of portrait photography, feature, and video production storytelling, but my background is a bit contradictory to my creative career. Despite my devotion to visual storytelling for more than a decade, I graduated with a degree in Biological Chemistry with a focus in Neuroscience from Grinnell College. Yes, you read that correctly… a photographer with an analytical mind and a penchant for science and experimentation. After earning my degree, I honed my visual storytelling abilities around the country in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, and the Deseret News in Salt Lake City. Since then, I heard the siren song of the Midwest calling me home. I am now currently based in Minneapolis, Minnesota freelancing for The New York Times, Reuters, Bloomberg , and various editorial news outlets and global brands. From breaking spot news to in-depth features and every story in between, I am a photographer who delivers skillfully-crafted, compelling imagery across a plethora of subjects with a creative AND analytical mind. I focus on isolating peak moments of emotion, engagement, and access. I'm devoting my career to crafting authentic, engaging stories through both photography and video to uncover truly unique narratives and individuals for editorial, agency, and corporate clients. I am available for immediate contract and freelance work in Minnesota, the Midwest, and projects around the world. Additionally, I am an FAA Part 107 certified drone pilot, enabling me to craft multi-dimensional stories and perspectives for my creative partners

Hi, my name is Nick Clausen and I am a digital filmmaker from St. Paul, Minnesota. I started working in television news 20 years ago, and now I shoot and edit documentaries. Stories that are meaningful to me usually have a social element to them. I'm currently following a light-rail construction project that is tearing apart a neighborhood in Saint Paul. Coming from a news background there is a freedom to creating my own documentaries: it gives me time to tell a story in-depth, and allows me to create an intimacy with my characters, so in return, the audience will connect with the characters as well.
