At Winton / duPont Films, we believe in the power of stories to engage, and move people to action. As experienced storytellers, we understand the elements which contribute to great filmmaking — drama, authenticity, visual originality. At its core, this process begins with people telling their own stories passionately and with insight. Working collaboratively with our clients — the nation’s leading institutions, corporations, schools, and non-profits — we create videos from original concept through final delivery, crafting stories that explore identity, reinforce brands, fundraise, recruit, market, educate and celebrate. Ultimately, we look to prompt action on behalf of institutions and social causes. This is the heart of what we do.

The exploratory process, the fascination with the dynamics of each individual life, grounded the practice and the storytelling.
