TRUST

IS THE FOUNDATION OF GOOD FILMMAKING

With that philosophy in mind, creative founders, Kashka Glowacka, Chris Rahm, and Devin Pickering came together in the winter of 2016 to form Northguild Production.

Previously independent freelancers, with decades of experience as a springboard, we understood that our skills and talents are stronger, and the project more efficient, when working as a committed team, sharing an intimate language and a common goal. That intimacy extends beyond our core to every client and fellow filmmaker coming on board to deliver their story’s message. Our holistic approach to filmmaking ensures that the intention and power of the story is never lost.
