The Best of Central Phoenix

Thanksgiving is almost here, and we’re still basking in our month-long series on gratitude as we celebrate the best of the Valley.

As a leading professional cinematography and photography company in Phoenix, we have an especially clinical eye when it comes to beauty, mood, and visual impact. We consider ourselves connoisseurs of hidden gem filming spots across our hometown, aiming to provide our clients with the best backgrounds for their shoots. 

From our many years of experience filming and finding spots, we have a lot of great recommendations to offer our clients. Let’s get into why the center of Phoenix is so special, beyond its status as the city of never-ending growth. 

As an ever-growing city, there's always plenty happening in Phoenix.

Downtown’s Appeal

Downtown Phoenix has undergone a renaissance over the last decade, driven by several revitalization efforts. Starting with ASU’s beautiful downtown campus and moving across the street to its Heritage & Science Park—where popular spots such as the Arizona Science Center, the Children’s Museum and Pizzeria Bianco (nationally recognized craftsman pizza) all reside— this area offers that sweet spot between modern and historical charm. 

Rooftop views across an expanse of high-rises give both a nostalgic and innovative background for local businesses looking to film a product shoot or an inspiring brand promotion. Downtown is full of busy restaurants and classic cocktail bars, perfect for filming a piece with energy, contrast and movement. 

If community is an important part of your brand, Phoenix has plenty of backdrops to choose from.

Being a southwest city and about as close to the equator as the US gets, this guarantees Phoenix more light for shoots year-round. But even at night, the city lights up, offering a warm glow and transforming wide, clear desert skies into a glittery backdrop of vibrant nightlife. 

Diverse Offerings

Just like a Thanksgiving dinner, everyone has their favorites in the city. Depending on the type of business, you’ll want different aesthetics to best highlight your brand. Central Phoenix has plenty of offerings to pick from, whatever you prefer.

We can tailor how we capture an area to fit the tone you’re seeking on video. If you’re looking for a more grounded, green feel, the city center is still the right place. Curated spaces like the Japanese Friendship Garden or Granada Park offer a dose of nature in the middle of our busy streets. Both have lakes, a surprising amount of wildlife, and huge trees to fill a video with a meditative, rooted impression or an adventurous, rugged one. 

If you want to leave a gritty, urban and colorful impression, we also have dozens of murals that photograph beautifully. Historic Grand Avenue offers many such art displays, as well as mom-and-pop shops that bring a personal touch to the urban scene.

Downtown offers plenty of rooftop views.

A Place You Can Connect To

If you prefer community-forward shots, the huge Burton Barr Central Library with its five stories of glass windows, or viral coffee shops like Moxie (recently awarded gold on a national list) and native staples like Lux and Cartel, are full of people meeting, sipping lattes, and working in modern, open spaces. 

If your office is located directly in Phoenix, we can also shoot commercial videos in your space, highlighting its defining features on camera and showing you in your natural environment.

No matter your type of business and what you’re looking to promote in a video shoot, Central Phoenix has the perfect place to film it. We’re here to help you find the ideal atmosphere to showcase your business.
