A Family Story Films is an award-winning production company based in Washington, DC, with a studio in Charlotte, North Carolina. We have spent our careers traveling the globe, stepping into extraordinary worlds, earning trust, and telling stories that stay with people.
Our work has taken us from child soldiers in Haiti to an unsupported expedition to the South Pole, from Fortune 500 brand campaigns to independent films that found life on the festival circuit. Across every kind of project, we bring the same level of craft, curiosity, and care. Our founder, Joel N. Clark, is a New York Times bestselling author, a 2025 Blacklist Select, and director whose work has taken him to all seven continents.
We do not believe in one-size-fits-all crews. Every project is built from the ground up with the team it actually needs — the right director of photography, the right editor, and the right creative chemistry to bring the story to life.
Whether you have a story that needs telling, a brand that needs elevating, or a vision that needs a production partner — we'd love to hear from you.
