About the Shrieking Tree Film Production Company

About Shrieking Tree

Shrieking Tree was founded in Las Vegas in 2004 as a web design and development company. While we love web design, over the years, we've evolved into something much more, with a greater focus on short film, music video, and advertisement production. Justin Norman, Wesley Norman, Bruce James Bales, and John Hennessy Baker now combine their varied skills to create award-winning content.

We provide everything for complete video production, including writing, casting, shooting, editing, and scoring videos for a wide variety of clients. We also continue our longstanding web and print design work. Our clients have included Stanford University, Amnesty International, Hi-Fructose Magazine, the Center for Constitutional Rights, Drake University, Hashimoto Contemporary, the Books, Unwed Sailor, and more.

The days of bloated film crews are over. For most jobs, all we need is three highly skilled people to make a polished product. Collectively, our crew has over 70 short films, commercials, and music videos under our belts. We save our clients tons of time and money by keeping our crew lean, without ever compromising on quality.

Our Equipment

We've got all the gear necessary to shoot any type of project, whether it be a commercial, music video, or short film. Our cameras include a BlackMagic Ursa Mini Pro 4.6K, which we use for high-resolution and premium color depth, a Sony a7s II for shooting excellent nighttime and low-light shots, and a Canon C200 for working in small spaces. Our equipment also includes an array of Arri and Lowel lights, a top-notch Schoeps boom microphone, five Tascam DR-10L lavalier mics, and a Sound Devices 633 mixer for the best possible sound.
