we create stunning videos for amazing clients.

we are limbo films.

A long-time leading production company in the Pacific Northwest, Limbo Films isn’t about a space in between, it’s about the dance. Meaning the way we bend over backwards for our clients on each and every production. It is something we’ve done since opening in 1992 and always will.

We’re a collaboration of passionate artists who deliver media content which inspires and matters. Whether filming broadcast commercials for major advertisers, branded content and social media for corporations or crafting modest videos in support of causes we believe in, Limbo works hard on your behalf.

Filming anywhere in the world that’s required we handle every aspect of production from preparation to final delivery.

We also have ARRI, Sony and Canon 4K UHD camera packages plus grip and lighting all in-house, which makes us extra cost efficient as well as responsive to last minute needs.
