BOISE, Idaho and ANN ARBOR, Mich., Feb. 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, the award-winning Boise-based video production agency Front Runner Films announces its expansion of operations to Michigan. The strategic move aims to increase support for existing clients in the United States Midwest and East Coast. Front Runner now has three operating hubs: Boise, Los Angeles, and Ypsilanti.
Founded by L.A. native Tyler Nimmons and kickstarted by CapStone Holdings, Inc. in 2016, Front Runner began working out of L.A. and Boise, specializing in corporate video storytelling. The agency has produced projects for companies and organizations globally and offers a full suite of video services. In recent years, Front Runner has successfully established new projects further east of Boise, particularly in Michigan, with over 20 total projects in the Detroit and Ann Arbor area alone. Some clients include Center Rock Capital Partners, MNP Corporation, Pro-Tech Group, and The United Green. Front Runner has also built a robust portfolio in higher education through its work with the Eastern Michigan University alumni-led group GameAbove and the GameAbove College of Engineering and Technology.
"Stories aren't bound by place. Stories move, grow and change. Our story is no different. We have roots on the West Coast; now we're bringing our vision and production style to Michigan," said CEO Nimmons. "We have ongoing commitments with several clients in the region and more projects developing regularly. It was important for us to find ways to improve our project delivery across the country while reducing costs for our clients."
Front Runner is also working on large-scale productions. The agency recently announced their collaboration with Mandalay Sports Media (MSM), the production company behind ESPN's The Last Dance, on a documentary depicting the life and success of one of the NBA's greatest players of all time and Hall of Famer, George "Iceman" Gervin. "Detroit is a huge part of George's childhood. When it was time for production to head there, our team was able to support Mandalay on the ground," said Nimmons. "To be able to do that speaks to our comfort and experience of working in the area." The untitled project is directed by Emmy-nominated producer, director, and artist One9 (Nas: Time is Illmatic, LA Burning), produced by MSM's Mason Gordon, and Mike Tollin will executive produce. The release date is unannounced.
Front Runner is the recipient of over 30 awards, including a first-place Idaho Advertising Federation Rockies Award for Ballet Idaho's 'The Divine Dissatisfaction' promotional video. The most recent award came in 2021, winning a Gold Telly Award for the GameAbove Capital promotional video. The agency also won a 2021 Silver Telly Award for its animation work with ADP WorkMarket.
