About Us
Welcome to White Knight Productions
Who We Are
We are proud to be a woman-owned, WBE-Certified company, based in Binghamton, NY. We are videographers, editors and animators. We are also writers, designers and visionaries. Most importantly, we are storytellers. We work side-by-side with you, as a virtual extension of your team.
Our Mission
Our mission is to amplify voices to achieve success through storytelling, communication and community. We are committed to producing high quality work and to ensuring that our videos and other products are always created with the end result in mind. We operate with high professional integrity and are always striving to evolve and grow.
What We Do
Why Choose Us?
If you’re looking for the cheapest video product, we may not be right for you. But if you’re interested in working with someone who wants to get to know and understand your business – someone who will come to the table with proactive suggestions and ideas – then we’d love to get to know you.
We start with looking at the big picture. Next, we take an approach that is collaboratively team-oriented, both internally and with you. We believe strongly in the collective creative genius of many minds working together on one common goal. We know a lot about video, but we also come from a broader marketing perspective. All of this informs the work we do and helps us to work harder and better for you.
We started out in film and television in LA and Europe (not in “business” or “corporate”) so we bring a different style and energy to our video production that we know will make your videos stand out and only build on the reputation you’ve established–with style!
We are connectors. This gives us an incredible network of experts from across the United States, which means we are uniquely positioned to customize a team for your videography needs. But, it goes well beyond that. The White Knight team will develop your marketing strategy and coordinate all of the moving pieces.
Add-on services include:
- website development
- SEO audits and management
- impactful digital marketing
- internal communications
- creative promotional products and gifts
- website and app development
- and much, much more
If you are looking for services beyond video production, please reach out to us and ask. We have access to the best of the best and absolutely stand by our referrals and strategic partners.
We are proud to be certified as a Women’s Business Enterprise (WBE) through the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC), the nation’s leading third-party certifier of businesses owned and operated by women.
In addition to WBENC, we have received WBE certification through New York State and a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) certification through the US Small Business Administration (SBA).
We’ve promised to uphold ethical and professional standards, and also, partner with other women-owned businesses, minority-owned businesses, veteran-owned businesses and economically disadvantaged businesses whenever possible.
We’re proud to be an award-winning agency. Over the years, our work has been honored and recognized by:
- The Communicator Awards
- The Telly Awards
- American Advertising Awards
- AVA Digital Awards
We meet you where you are. We Knights are happiest when we are sitting around our version of the “round table.” This is where we brainstorm creative solutions for you, and then strategize a plan to implement those solutions.
