We build pictures with a point of view — light, grain, and intent over gloss and filler.
Grainhouse is a fourteen-person studio working across stills and motion out of a 4,000 sq ft daylight stage in the LA Arts District, with a second suite in Greenpoint. We shoot, cut, colour, and print in-house — one team from brief to final delivery.
Founded by director Marisol Vane and DP Theo Kessler, the studio pairs a documentary eye with a commercial engine: campaigns, lookbooks, cover stories, product films, and archival scans, all held to the same standard.
01 — Selected work
Recent frames
Editorial, campaign, and motion stills. Full case films available on request.
02 — What we do
Four disciplines
Half-day and multi-day productions. Rates below are studio day rates; project fees quoted on the brief.
03 — The studio
Made by a small permanent crew
No revolving freelancers on the core. The people who take the brief are the people on set and at the desk when the files are graded. That continuity is why brands come back for the third and fourth campaign.
