  • Johanna Osborne

    PARTNER

    Johanna has worked in the Vancouver film industry for over 20 years, in front of and behind the camera, as well as taught film studies at the college level.

    Joh holds a Master of Arts from Yale University with a focus on film.

    She brings her experience in film, the written word, and those intangible poetics in between, to every shoot, loving to capture the magic of the moment in the sweetest light and from the best angle possible.

  • Mark Osborne

    PARTNER

    Mark, an English Lit majour and natural storyteller, has over a couple decades of experience working with children, families and their communities, directing children’s theatre and telling their stories.

    He has a sixth sense to make young and old feel at ease in conversation and comfortable sharing their stories.

    Other than that, he’s a mean, mean, editing machine: he will not rest until every second of image and sound has aligned harmoniously with the stars and compliments the fine essence of his subjects.
