Case Study: North Shelby Fire District
A Modern Website & Feature Film Built to Serve and Inspire
When North Shelby Fire District needed to communicate their mission, values, and public services more effectively, we stepped in to elevate their brand with clarity and cinematic impact.
We redesigned their website from the ground up with a mobile-first approach, intuitive navigation, and sections dedicated to fire prevention, joining the team, fleet details, and online payment tools. The result is a faster, easier, more human-centered experience for the residents they serve.
Alongside the site, we created a 2-minute cinematic film featuring real emergency responders, sunrise aerial shots, and powerful voiceover from Chief Sipe—giving their community a closer look at the heroes who protect them every day.
The Heart Behind the Badge
A Cinematic Tribute to Courage, Service, and Community
To complement the new website, we created a powerful short film that captures the spirit of North Shelby Fire District—from early morning drills and aerial views of their fleet to personal words from Chief Sipe. This story-driven video honors the men and women who serve and protect with courage every day.
