Goal

Telling stories through the eyes of the people that often go unheard. Filming the raw points of view that often go unseen. That’s the goal. Be apart of the dream.

The Man Behind the Whale

Rio Finnegan

Since he was a kid, he was always compelled by storytelling. He immersed himself in world mythology and the history of storytelling excited him. He has always wanted to be a storyteller, but he didn’t know what stories he wanted to tell. When he was 14, he watched The Darjeeling Limited in the movie theater and he realized what he wanted to do, and the stories he wanted to tell. He started writing scripts, and learning from them. He took inspiration from filmmakers, like Godard and Kurosawa all the way to current filmmakers as Gondry and Jonze. He graduated in Film from Santa Fe University of Art & Design, where he worked on many projects under many titles. Making films such as Hello World and 1-900 in his time there.
