"A creative outlet for the masses, one frame at a time."
M3 Productions is a small company formed in early 2006 with a vision of starting an independent film production company where a community of writers, producers, and directors could share ideas. M3 has many future projects already in the works that will promote local talents by being submitted to statewide film festivals. The team has set out to boost the popularity of Valley bands by helping them with good quality music videos and showcasing their talents during fund raising concerts. M3 not only produces shorts, music videos & commercials internally, but will also offer this to budding directors and writers who need a place to bring their creations to life.
