2011: The Final Year of Creo Productions

November 21st, 2011

In life, as in cinema, people must make difficult choices.

After careful consideration, we’ve decided to move on from Creo Productions after 2011, in order to pursue our passions.

Aaron Carriere will be exploring screenwriting and story development, after backpacking South America with his wife this winter.

Andrew Tingley will be focusing on cinematography, starting a new production company in Grand Rapids in 2012.

Derek Rottman, our employee, will be freelancing, specializing in post-production.

We’re moving on with a deep sense of gratitude for this experience over the last five years. We’re thankful for the support of our families, friends and clients who have journeyed with us, beginning with an idea that online video will shape the future, and ending with a successful organization that lived up to its name, “to create.”

Thank you for creating with us.

Aaron and Andrew
Creo Productions
