Puget Sound · Seattle · Renton · Tacoma · Bremerton
Video production in Seattle, from a crew that worked here first.
Influence Studios is based in Glendale, Arizona, and this team is originally from the Puget Sound. Our CEO built his first production company in Bremerton, our Chief of Operations produced campaigns across Washington, and the record here runs to hundreds of shoots: Providence, the Seattle Sounders, Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium, and a music video that turned out a whole city. We still shoot here all the time, and we still have a team member in Bremerton.

The Puget Sound record
From the Sound. For the Sound.
This team has shot hundreds of jobs across Washington, from stadium partnerships to city-scale music videos. Here are a few that show the range.
Renton, WA
January 2023
Providence · Seattle Sounders FC
The Sounders unveiled Providence as their 2023 front-of-jersey partner at a schoolwide assembly at Renton High School, wrapped around a youth mental-health programme built with the Renton School District. Influence ran it as a multi-cam day, and KING 5, the Seattle Times and the club all covered the event.
Seattle, WA
April 2024
Providence · Seattle Sounders FC
Fourteen months later the team was back in Seattle, shooting with Providence and the Sounders again. Providence is an Influence client, and the Puget Sound is a repeat market: this team is from here, and the relationships kept producing long after the studio moved to Glendale.

JxPhreeze
A music video shot at city scale in the town the director, the DP and the artist all come from: a production trailer, a street closure, the Mayor of Bremerton on camera, and a whole city that said yes. The full story, plus the behind-the-scenes film, is below.

Multiple campaigns
Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium
Campaign work for Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium, one of the Northwest names on the Influence client list, produced by Steffan Collins, our Chief of Operations. Tacoma is part of the same home market this team grew up shooting in, and the numbers in our contacts still connect.
Meet the crewThe hometown film
A whole city turned out in Bremerton.
Skyler, Steffan and JxPhreeze are all from Bremerton. When they went home to make a song about it, the whole town showed up.
JxPhreeze, “From The Brem”. The finished film: a whole song about Bremerton, made by a director, a DP and an artist who all grew up there.
Behind the scenes. How a whole city gets organized for one music video, from the people who made it happen.
The story behind it
- Director Skyler Mullins, DP Steffan Collins and the artist JxPhreeze are all from Bremerton. The song is about home, and the film was made by the people it belongs to.
- Mayor Greg Wheeler appears in it, alongside local fixtures including the Bremerton Ninja, Studio K Pole and the Low II Show low-rider club.
- Thirteen local businesses sponsored the production, among them Cross Country Mortgage, Windermere Property Management, Kitsap Sells and Mise En Place.
- A whole city said yes: streets closed, businesses signed on, and residents turned out to put their town on camera.
From The Brem is what it looks like when this team shoots at home: a city that turned out because the people making the film are from it. That kind of pull cannot be rented, in Washington or anywhere else.
How a Puget Sound shoot runs
Hometown knowledge. Studio-grade delivery.
The production muscle lives in Glendale and the roots live in the Sound, with a team member based in Bremerton today. Here is how a Washington job actually runs.
A senior team gets on the plane
Direction, camera and producing travel, plus whichever specialist the shot list requires. Everyone who lands has shot the kind of day you are booking, and travel is one clean number on the quote, settled on the first call.
Our cameras fly with us
The camera package travels as our own cases: the same cinema cameras, lenses and support the reel was shot on, so the look never depends on what a rental shelf has that week. Supplemental grip, lighting and extra hands get hired locally when it serves the job.
We schedule the Sound like locals, because we are
A Kitsap or Vashon crossing is a call time, not a surprise, and November light in the Sound is a fact you build a day around. This team grew up shooting here; cover sets and a written plan B come standard.
Post comes home to Glendale
Edit, colour, sound, motion graphics, VFX and CGI all run in our own building on the same pipeline as every Arizona job. The footage never changes hands and never gets subbed out, so the finished cut looks like the reel you hired.
Or fly the talent to us
One flight south, and the whole studio is yours.
Some briefs are better served on our own stages. Home is a nearly 10,000 sq ft building in Glendale that we own, run by the same team, on a stage that has no weather forecast attached to it.
The 30x10 ft LED volume wall (the studio’s own claim: the highest quality screen in Arizona) puts a live environment behind talent in camera, so a spot that “has to” look like a rain-slick street or a stadium tunnel can often be shot here in a day, with the executive who has to approve it sitting behind the monitor.
- 2,000+ sq ft cyclorama
- Podcast suite for up to 8
- Seven-set portrait studio
- Sci-fi, bedroom & bar sets
Single spaces start at $49/hr. The full rate card, including the LED wall and full-studio days, lives on the booking page.
What the trip can cover
The same disciplines, whether the call sheet says Glendale or Renton.
Every one of these is delivered in house, by the team that delivers it at home. Nothing on the list changes because there is an airport code on the schedule.
