They always hit a home run and are so much fun to work with. I enjoyed getting to know their hearts as much as their talents. Highly recommend them for outstanding video production and editing needs.

What blew me away was how effortlessly they nailed the vibe. Their music pick was perfect from the jump, with no changes needed. Most impressive was how insanely resourceful they were. I gave them limited resources and assets, along with a pretty rough idea of what I wanted, and they turned it into gold. They made solutions look easy and were the kind of team that makes you look good without even trying.

'Got to Go' Music Video

Our video was a MASSIVE hit at our annual sales meeting. People still come up to me a year later talking about it. It was fun, we had a blast, but more importantly, it did the job. It solidified concepts in our reps mind and they recall it instantly. A rep could talk to me about a parasitic disease they had zero awareness of a year ago. The goal wasn’t to just make people laugh it was to make the product relatable to everyday life and the measure of that success is a year later sales team still use it as point of reference.

Handshake was a vital partner to us in sharing our story with the world. In our industry, it’s very difficult to tell a story that is compelling, meaningful, and unique and when we approached with our plans, Handshake jumped right on board. Collaborative and willing to roll with the punches, they even made a late-night pre-shoot script rewrite work as if it was always meant to be. The final product opened real doors in the industry and galvanized our team as we seek to invent the future of medical tech.

Story of Light

For its 70th anniversary, Volpi needed a film that covered both the history of a Swiss precision-optics manufacturer and its role in next-generation diagnostic platforms. Handshake filmed at both sites, in Dietikon and Auburn, New York, and spent time with leadership, product management, engineering and production before shooting. The crew worked efficiently in a regulated manufacturing environment with minimal disruption to operations, and the collaboration throughout was straightforward. The film now anchors Volpi's redesigned website.

Every project is scoped to what it actually needs, and we'll always tell you what to expect before anything starts.

It depends on the complexity of the project. Most projects go from handshake to final cut in about 6-10 weeks. Got a launch date or conference deadline bearing down on you? Call us anyway — we've pulled off miracles before and we're not above a dramatic all-nighter.

Handshake Studios

Brand films, 3D product animation, explainers, testimonials, event coverage, social campaigns — honestly, if it moves, we make it.

Usually two at every checkpoint — script, storyboard, design, and edit. Reviewing as we go means notes land while changes are still cheap, instead of everything piling up on the final cut. And if something still isn't right, we're not going to leave you hanging over a technicality.

Happily. We'll plug into whatever you already run — your project management, your review and approval tools, your brand guidelines, your file storage. You shouldn't have to learn our stack to work with us.

Either way. The whole stack from script to final cut? Love it. Just the script, just the edit, just the animation because your team's got the rest? Also love it. Tell us where you need hands and that's where we'll be.

If you need video that drives sales, builds trust, launches a product, wins a room — we're probably your people.
