Motion & Video
"Every piece of footage has the story already in it. You just have to find the right cut."
Max Sims came up through filmmaking and found his way to commercial work by learning that the same principles apply everywhere: story first, craft second, tools last.
He handles everything in-house — shoot planning, directing, editing, color, and sound. That full ownership means the final cut is never a compromise between what was intended and what made it through post.
His recent focus has been short-form work that hits within the first two seconds and stays with you after the loop ends.
