Filming this profile, we had complete access to the entire Basque Block during the annual San Inazio Festival. The rich cultural atmosphere here provide a perfect backdrop to capture Dan's role in perpetuating the Basque tradition (especially it's food, music and dance!)
Kettle River Railroad Bridge
Built in 1894, this railroad bridge spans the Kettle River in Sandstone, Minnesota.
At FEAT1STFILMS, we tell stories with tools, like drones, that can best provide unique perspectives.
We are certified UAV (unmanned aircraft systems) operators with hours of flight experience. In order to use the awesome images these "drones" can provide, a production company needs to be licensed... and we have the goods.
Limestone & Felt
Dedicated to performing music of living composers, Boise's own 208 Ensemble performed Caroline Shaw's "Limestone & Felt" in a collaboration with members of the Boise dance company, Project Flux.
Syncing five different cameras and three performances to a master track of the music helped capture the spontaneity and energy of this collaborative performance.
Emotions. Values. Ideas
Stories told simply... down-to-earth and relatable.

Boise In Full Flight: Expanding Travel Opportunities
Every year the Boise Metro Chamber of Commerce produces a year-end video for their annual gala. This segment highlights the Chamber's work on behalf of the region's "young professionals."
We love to be able to take a brand and fully explore the variety of stories that make up the whole.
Six short videos individually, and as a whole, are a window into the soul of this association of businesses.
Dave & Jock
As part of the Traditional Arts Apprenticeship Program, sponsored by The Idaho Commission On The Arts, master artists share skills and knowledge to perpetuate a valued community tradition.
Documentary shorts or mini-docs are a great way to highlight the mission/story of a non-profit organization or business.
Our curiosity and love of people inform everything we do.
Spending the day with Dave and Jock was a joy and yes...lunch included a round of beers.
Inspire. Inform. Engage
Stories that speak honestly to your community.
The “Get Out The Vote” Tour! Medicaid Expansion For Idaho
Last year we were contacted by The Fairness Project to do some work on behalf of Reclaim Idaho.
We had the honor of touring Idaho in a green RV. From Boise, to McCall, Grangeville, to Lewiston, Coeur d'Alene, to Sandpoint.
Watching the dedication and hard work of the folks behind Prop 2 was truly an inspiration.
In a bipartisan effort, over 60% of Idaho voters voted YES on an initiative that will benefit countless Idahoans.
Building A Trail in Garden Valley
The Garden Valley Mountain bike team needed a place to practice skills and train, so they took matters into their own hands.
Part of a larger series of videos produced for the non-profit Idaho International Cycling League (IICL), this video introduces you to the Garden Valley Wolverines.
Ostensibly, their story is about building trails near their rural school. But the video also captures another, more significant, narrative about the inclusiveness of this special community of high school mountain bike teams.
Festival of India
This Boise temple is an important resource for Boiseans to learn about Vedic culture and the wealth of spiritual knowledge
