About Us
Aspen Productions is a full service still & motion content production company in Colorado with over 30 years of combined experience. We blend urban production work ethic with mountain production know-how, resulting in a combination that fills every possible job need. We’re known for our resourceful contacts, problem-solving skills and scrupulous attention to budget. We have offices in Aspen, Atlanta, New York, San Francisco, and Kauai, but our territory covers the entire country. Some of our recent productions have taken us as nearby as Utah and others as far away as Alaska and overseas to Thailand, Italy, and Sweden.
Our services range from acting as your local liaison to providing full production services. This includes but is not limited to line producing, location scouting and management, and “real people” casting on national commercials, print campaigns, music videos, and features.
Our jobs have had us snowmobiling the glorious peaks of Aspen in hot pursuit of a director’s storyboard, locking up the streets of New York City, arranging logistics from Hawaii to Sweden and weaving camera crews among the marshes of Thailand. Finding your perfect road or mountain vista is a cinch – making your production successful is our forte.

WE HAVE COVERED THE ENTIRE STATE & BEYOND. SOME OF OUR MOST RECENT PRODUCTIONS HAVE BEEN PRODUCED IN OUR NEIGHBORING STATE OF UTAH AND AS FAR AWAY AS ALASKA.
