Owner, Colton Otte

I’m Colton “Cody” Otte, a filmmaker drawn to real moments and honest storytelling. For more than 15 years, I’ve worked across music, branded content, and documentary projects, always with the same goal: capture what feels authentic.

I spent over a decade touring with Prof, documenting life on and off stage and producing large-scale projects like Live at the Palace. Along the way, I’ve created content for brands including Budweiser, Taco John’s, Alaska Airlines, and Walser Automotive, as well as internal documentaries and training films that help organizations communicate clearly and meaningfully. I’m also FAA Part 107 certified, allowing me to safely incorporate aerial cinematography into professional productions when the story calls for it.

In personal work, especially weddings and legacy projects, I take a documentary approach, observing rather than directing so the day unfolds naturally. Whether embedded with a team or trusted with a family milestone, I focus on creating work that feels real, intentional, and built to last.

If there’s a story worth telling, I’m interested in telling it well. Contact me below to get the ball rolling.
