About Ruth E.

Ive been telling stories for as long as I can remember. Ive crafted narratives through painting, told tales through music and songwriting and chronicled the voices of local artists, farmers, and activists through writing. My muse remains the same: everyday, ordinary people doing the best they can to make a difference in their communities. Ive been telling their stories for over 14 years. My degree in Interactive Media has made it possible to merge all my enthusiasms: visual aesthetics, audio, and storytelling. I like to think of it as creating stories with a pulse. Nothing excites me more than developing projects for companies who are working to create positive change.

About Caleb G.

I began making films while in college and have since grown a freelancing venture into a company that produces and directs video projects for universities, Fortune 500 companies, and numerous national and regional organizations. I bring a dynamic catalog of experiences into projects as I’ve performed almost all of the roles involved in a commercial grade video production. I love bringing together a production team and approach that fits the story. Though there are crew that I work with often, I’m comfortable working with almost any team and I’d be the first to say that we need to look at the concept and ask, "what is really going to allow us to make this the right way?" When not working on a production, I’m usually playing with my two boys or exploring beauty in the great outdoors of North Carolina.

About Nathanael B.

I'm a Winston-Salem, NC based filmmaker. I grew up making movies with my twin brother and friends so telling stories and being behind a camera has always been important to me. I think I've always appreciated the collaboration that happens with visual storytelling and how it allows us to communicate things that are otherwise difficult to communicate. I started a video production company with my brother in 2012 and I produced primarily video content for real estate agents, brides and grooms, and businesses needing testimonials, safety videos, etc. I've realized I'm much more interested in finding stories to tell about individual people and that's what led me to StoryHunter.
