DiMaso Studios combines story strategy, creative development, and filmmaking to build each project around the story you need to tell, not a predetermined package.
We help untangle what you’re trying to communicate by looking at your audience, positioning, messaging, and larger organizational story, then find the strongest story to build around.
That may include:
Your audience and their priorities
What you want people to understand, feel, or remember
How different programs, ideas, or initiatives connect
Your positioning and larger organizational story
Stories that already exist but haven’t been fully explored.
What kind of creative work could actually help
Organizations often know their work inside and out, but after years of refining the mission, messaging, and everything around it, the larger story can get buried.
Clarify Your Story
This could lead to: a story strategy, messaging direction, campaign concept, storytelling roadmap, film concept, or recommendations for what to create next.
Tell Your Story
Once we know what matters, we start looking for the people and moments that can make it real.
Joseph helps keep the work connected to the audience, message, and larger goal. Jane shapes the creative direction, interviews, visuals, and edit into a film that feels human rather than scripted around talking points.
Depending on the project, that may involve:
Story and narrative development
Interview planning
Creative direction
Documentary style production
Editing and post-production
Supporting short-form pieces
This could lead to: an organizational film, founder story, impact film, campaign film, donor story, student or alumni story, interview series, testimonial, or community story.
Build a Storytelling Partnership
Build a storytelling approach that connects the bigger brand picture with the people and stories that make it real.
Organizations rarely have only one meaningful story, and those stories don’t usually appear on a schedule. They’re happening all the time, across programs, relationships, milestones, campaigns, and everyday moments.
A partnership might include:
Story planning
Quarterly or campaign-based strategy
Story opportunity identification
Creative direction
Recurring documentary work
Campaign support
The exact shape depends on what your organization needs. The goal is simply to make storytelling a more thoughtful part of how you communicate.
What We Can Create
Each project is completely different and tailored towards your needs. Depending on what the story calls for, we create:
Brand & Organizational Films
Stories that help people understand the purpose, people, and personality behind an organization.
Documentary & Legacy Films
Films that preserve history, honor a legacy, or explore a meaningful story in depth.
Impact & Campaign Films
Stories designed to make impact visible, support a campaign, or help move an audience toward action.
Interviews & Testimonials
Thoughtfully produced conversations that help real people communicate why the work matters.
Oral Histories & Anniversary Films
Stories that capture memories, milestones, and institutional history before they are lost.
Event Storytelling
Coverage built around the people, meaning, and moments behind an event.
More Ways We Can Help Tell the Story
Depending on the project, we may also create:
Archival storytelling
Institutional and community histories
Event interviews
Short-form supporting films
Website edits
Social cutdowns
Founder and leadership stories
Donor stories
Student and alumni stories
Community stories
Interview series
Personal and family stories
“We couldn't be happier with the video and editing done by DiMaso Studios. The sound and video quality are great and went beyond expectations. They were easy to work with and we will definitely use them again!”

Not sure where your project fits?
You don’t need to know the format, runtime, number of deliverables, or even exactly what the story is yet.
We can figure out what the story should become together.
