You have a choice, so why ci Productions?

creative illusions Productions came from the film industry in Atlanta in the early 90’s. We saw an incredible amount of waste and cost overrun in that industry, and were determined to use that knowledge to bring a different model to the North Carolina video production market. We take great pride in that we have developed long-term relationships with several clients – some even consider us the video production division of their company. We like to understand the companies we work with so that we can produce a product that feels like them. Our pricing structure is designed to fit the client and their needs, coupled with their desired budget range. We don’t have employees that you have to pay for when they aren’t actively working on your project. However, we’ve built a team of North Carolina based contractors over the years that we can utilize on a per-project basis, drastically reducing your cost.

Client Testimonials

Huge quotation marks.

"The Plumbing video that featured American Standard was a great success! Working with you and Steve was a wonderful experience. From your professionalism to making sure I was comfortable, you made it a smooth process and an effective use of time for us all. American Standard being featured in this video was a great move for the AS brand for multiple reasons. Not only does it revolve around what the brand’s TradeUP program message is currently conveying but there are real life students (not actors) and instructors speaking on behalf of their personal experience in the plumbing/building trade. Having real people speak about their positive career choices will help motivate and inspire others to take action with their life. On a perspective from the business side, getting newer plumbers coming in to the trade and having them familiar with the AS brand, products and performance, will help to ensure a long term success for the brand."

The years of video experiencefrom both Kim and Steve Brame is evident from how they work with their clients totell a story and garner attention. They listened to what I thought I wanted andthen proposed solutions to give me exactly what I needed. Not only did theycreate a compelling series of short testimonial videos, but they made it funfor me and for my clients who were involved. It was clear from the completedvideos how comfortable Kim made each person feel when they were in front of thecamera. Steve’s behind-the-camera expertise and post production wizardry madefor a visual campaign of messages-driven videos I could use in multiple ways.
