A closer look at the origins, inspirations, and direction behind Mannequin Productions
Origins
It all began in 2016 as Mannequin Films in Boise, ID, focused on creating original short films. In 2020, the name evolved to Mannequin Productions, marking a shift toward freelance video work, original content, and exploring new storytelling avenues. After relocating to Scranton, PA in 2025, the company continues its pursuit of compelling narratives: stories that inspire, provoke thought, and leave a lasting impression. We invite you to explore the ones we’ve told so far.
Inspirations
Mannequin Productions draws from a wide array of creative influences. The quiet magic of the natural world, the spark of discovery and innovation, the contemplative depth of human experience, and the steady drive of disciplined craft all shape the stories we pursue. These threads weave together to form a singular creative vision, guiding each project with care, precision, and imagination. We invite audiences to explore the worlds we have brought to life and those still unfolding.
