Allow us to (re)introduce ourselves
By melissa@longhaulfilms.com in How We Work
We’ve had a lot of new visitors to our website and social media pages, so we wanted to introduce ourselves and talk a little bit about what we do, and why our clients love working with us.
Long Haul Films is a film and video production company, and we’ve been around since 2012. We started in Boston, and migrated to Los Angeles in 2015, but we have worked on projects all around the world– from London to Singapore and everywhere in between.

Across more than a dozen years in business, a lot has happened! Including…
🎥 we’ve made hundreds of videos that have wracked up millions of views online
🎥 we’ve produced feature length and short films that have screened at dozens of film festivals, and won several awards
🎥 we’ve helped countless brands, business owners, and non-profits share their stories and engage audiences
Our big focus is documentary storytelling and branded content, and we’ve worked with clients all around the world in tech/entrepreneurship, non-profit and fundraising, real estate and urban development, fashion and consumer goods, the music industry, and with so many small businesses. Even though documentary is our passion, we also make product videos and commercials, shoot music videos, and work on scripted short videos and films.
We hear our clients and collaborators repeat certain things about why they love working with us:
🎥 our ability to conduct great interviews, and ask hard hitting questions
🎥 the way we put on-camera talent at ease–– even for folks who aren’t used to being in front of the camera
🎥 we are open, transparent, organized, fast, flexible, and solution-oriented
🎥 our sets feel safe, welcoming, and well-balanced– we often hear people say “this is the most non-toxic set I’ve ever been on” (which makes us wonder *WHAT* other people are doing on their sets!)
🎥 we go above and beyond for our clients and collaborators– our passion always shines through
The most important thing to share with you is our “why”. We believe that film is one of the most powerful mediums for generating empathy, expanding understanding, eliciting emotion, and creating connection. If you’ve ever left a movie theater with that floaty feeling, like you’ve been transported to a different reality, then you understand the power of film.
And we’ve always wanted to use that power to help people tell stories that matter, and create postive change.
If that sounds interesting to you, get in touch! We love working with mission-driven and inspiring companies, brands, orgs, and people.
