We first dipped our toes into filmmaking with animation. The first ever short film we made starred our pet bird, sweetie, and blended stop motion with digital video. As we have expanded into proper photography and videography, our love experimenting with the mediums and exploring the intersections between them has never ceased. While videography is our bread and butter, creative and innovative approaches to realizing your vision is our passion

So why “MokaPot Media…”

…We’re glad you asked!

The moka pot, our namesake, in our opinion is the finest way to craft coffee. Its a creative and elegant design to brew a strong espresso-like coffee, at a fraction of the cost and complexity of an espresso machine.

We feel it perfectly captures the spirit of our filmmaking and company as a whole, plus seeing as how it is our favorite way to brew coffee, the humble moka pot felt like a natural icon for our brand.
