Every vision has a picture, every picture has a story, every story provokes emotion, every emotion engages an audience, and every audience has the power to take action. Impactful messaging moves beyond spectacle. Videos that highlight an individual’s or organization’s unique character, their dreams, their motivations and their resulting actions, allows us, the viewer, to get a deeper insight into the world around them, and ourselves. As a Washington DC-based Filmmaker, Video Producer and creative visionary, Stone is driven to interface with real people, hear their stories and craft a video that embodies their unique passion. Stone has worked with clients around the globe from San Diego to Maine, and from Abu Dhabi to Toronto to Mexico City. Stone started Stone Lyons Media in 2010 after many years working in the film and television industries of Los Angeles, Wilmington, NC and Washington, DC. His interests in short format documentary storytelling and videography combine to create compelling narratives for emotionally-engaging fundraising / gala videos, socially-stimulating YouTube and Facebook videos, energizing special event coverage, and in-depth issue driven documentary film. Stone Lyons Media’s clients run the gamut from mental health advocacy to youth leadership, and from finance to innovation.
