Your Mission
Deserves to
Move the World
Cinematic storytelling for organizations where the stakes are real.
Selected partners
For over 11 years, NEEBA has been the agency behind how nonprofits, foundations, and mission-driven institutions present themselves to the world, in every medium that matters.
A decade of service.
Built for builders
of a better world
Our best work comes from deep immersion in the mission. We build narratives that last.
Foundations & Nonprofits
You're doing work that matters, but funders, donors, and the public can't see what you see. We translate your impact into film that sustains campaigns and opens rooms.
Higher Education & Research
From enrollment to endowment, cinematic content communicates institutional legacy and the human stories behind landmark research that data alone can't convey.
Government & Civic Organizations
Policy doesn't move people. Stories do. We help agencies and civic bodies create transparent, emotionally resonant content that rebuilds public trust.
Convenings & Summits
Your convening is an extraordinary moment, and it disappears the day after it ends. We capture, document, and extend the impact of high-stakes gatherings.
Social Impact Ventures
You're building something new. We help mission-aligned organizations tell the story of their "why" with enough depth and craft to attract aligned partners and capital.
Documentary & Long-Form
Some stories need more than a brand film. Our documentary division produces feature-length and episodic work for distribution across streaming, festivals, and advocacy campaigns.
Born from
this work.
Mission-driven storytelling has been our work since day one.
We started as community builders.
NEEBA began with community organizers and nonprofit advocates who picked up cameras because the work demanded it. We built programs, ran events, and told stories for communities that weren't being heard. That origin never left us. It's still in every frame we shoot.
Recognized as San José Small Business of the Year, an honor rooted in that same community commitment.
Institutional credibility, built over a decade.
From the Knight Foundation and the U.S. Department of Education to AARP and city governments across California, NEEBA has spent years earning the trust of organizations where the stakes are real and the story has to land precisely.
Cinema-grade storytelling, built for longevity and reach.
We've grown from a production house into a full-spectrum storytelling agency, combining documentary expertise, brand narrative, and strategic distribution in every engagement, building work that lasts and stories that travel.
Your audience would rather watch than read.
For mission-driven organizations, belief matters more than conversion. We design content that makes your audience feel the stakes, trust the source, and act on what they've seen.
Where mission
meets craft.
Most agencies can claim one. NEEBA is built on both.
Our roots are in nonprofit and foundation work, and our team's experience runs far beyond it: Fortune 500 companies, Hollywood productions, and national institutions. Community heart, industry craft.
Community origin
- Built and ran nonprofit programs before picking up a camera
- Deep fluency in how institutions think, buy, and evaluate
- Embedded with your program staff, not parachuted in for shoot day
- Partners in the mission, not just a vendor on the invoice
Industry-grade craft
- Cinema-grade production drawn from Fortune 500 and Hollywood experience
- 11 years of institutional client partnerships across sectors
- One discovery engagement scopes the full story before a camera is raised
- Storytelling built to travel: festivals, funders, and policy rooms
From inquiry to impact
01
Discover & Strategy
Stakeholder interviews, audience research, brand positioning, and creative direction, all before a camera is raised. We don't produce until we understand the full arc of your story and what it needs to accomplish.
02
Story Construction
Cinema-grade equipment. Original scoring. Copywriting and screenwriting. Whether it's a brand film, mini-documentary, short film, or multi-episode series, we build it to last.
03
Immersive & Emerging Formats
Web video, branded content, short films, mini-documentaries, and full documentary production. We meet your audience in every format they use, with storytelling built to hold attention.
04
Strategic Distribution & Amplification
Cross-platform campaign architecture, distribution, optimization, and attribution reporting. Your story keeps working long after launch day.

What our partners say
The passion, creativity, and professionalism Marlo and NEEBA bring is rare.
We love working with Marlo and NEEBA because they're dope at what they do.
NEEBA provided an incredibly talented production team on the day of our product launch, accomplishing all goals. The final video attracted the interest of customers in Australia and across the US.
We worked with NEEBA to produce two videos that delighted our audience and exceeded our team's expectations. We were so grateful for their can-do attitude throughout the production and post-production process.
I was blown away with what NEEBA were able to accomplish. It was a true testament of their competence, creativity, and organization.
NEEBA exceeded my expectations. We hosted an AI conference with Nobel laureates and some of the brightest minds in the world, and they told that story with precision.
I love working with NEEBA. With their people skills and creativity, they know how to connect with our team and with our viewers.
NEEBA has been telling our story for four years. The heart, passion, and intelligence they bring have made them key partners in everything we do.
