Our Team

Tim Park, Principal / Creative Director

Although Tim’s aspirations to be a filmmaker date back to grade school, he instead went with a more traditional education in biochemistry/biophysics. However just as he was nearly done with his Ph.D. in neurotoxicology, film called him back. Since then he has worked on projects for National Geographic, Adidas, Runner’s World, Autodesk, and the Oregon Historical Society. Being one who strives to “shake things up a bit,” Tim enjoys unusual hobbies such as unicycling, triathlons, skydiving, mountaineering, scuba diving, as well as being “walked by his dog.”

Ryan E. Walters, Director of Photography

At the age of 7, Ryan began telling visual stories with his comic strip series “The Flip Side.” This drive for storytelling has taken him around the world filming for The Travel Channel, TLC, Adidas, Nike, & Autodesk among many others. Ryan enjoys spending time with his wife and he is a connoisseur of strategy-based board games, coffee, and whiskey.
