WHO WE ARE

JOOSBOX

We are always at the threshold of technology and innovation. We set ourselves apart by implementing state of the art knowledge combined with our artistic style. We know that 3D and motion graphics are in high demand and we work with the best designers. From script to screen we keep you up to date and informed. As a production company we do more than simply produce digital content. Our team, from a wide variety of backgrounds, will ensure that your project creates maximum impact.

Narratives to Commercials. Documentaries to Music Videos. Live Events to Corporate Videos. We use Digital Cinema Cameras including REDs and Blackmagic Designs to obtain the highest definition quality and RAW dynamic range to set your project apart for the rest. 

Our editing team brings visions to life and our cinematic color grading is backed by the power of Davinci Resolve.

Film is incredibly democratic and accessible, it’s probably the best option if you actually want to change the world, not just re-decorate it.

Life in Color

  • Joosbox: Color Correction

Shooting in RAW with cinema digital cameras gives us the ability to color every aspect of the frame.  A flat RAW image to us is the same as a blank canvas to a painter. It gives us amazing control to dig in deep, color grade and create amazing results. In the video below we show these results in motion, ungraded/flat image on one end complete color grade on the other.

Rane Mixer

  • Friends of Mine: visual effects/edit

greenscreen (3 of 3)

We teamed up with Friends of Mine to produce this green screen shoot for Rane Mixers and DJ Chris Karns. Everything was shot in 12-BIT RAW files so the guys at FOM could pull a clean key with the 13 stops of Dynamic range, in turn giving them the freedom to produce some insane motion graphics. Check out the video below to see the amazing results.

Hi, I’m Shawn Astrom, the second oldest in a family of four. I grew up in Boulder Colorado. Seventy five percent of my time as a kid was spent playing video games and the piano, I wasn’t much interested in a lot more than that.

I was always messing around with computers and had a great love for art and music. At a pretty young age I started learning a program called Photoshop. Needless to say once I saw a little of what I could do with art on the computer the rest was history.

On top of that I discovered a program called Ableton Live and that led me to spend the next several years producing electronic music. With a bit of luck I had some minimal success with my music, even got to perform in Ibiza and Japan a few times.

Fast forward a bit and you’ll know that I had the pleasure of working at The Firm Graphics for several years as a lead graphic designer. I worked on several amazing projects for all kinds of clients in the electronic music scene.

I left The Firm Graphics in 2008 to go work for Citizen Pictures as their lead 3D artist. I had the opportunity to work for clients such as Food Network, Discovery Channel, Crispin Porter + Bogusky, and Activision Games to name a few. Citizen Pictures is currently producing some of Food Network’s top Shows.

In 2011 I started SA Studios, INC. I am currently working as a fulltime freelance 3D Motion Designer and VFX Specialist with a little bit of music production in the mix on occasion. We use a diverse set of tools ranging from Cinema 4D to Realflow to create pretty much anything you can imagine. We specializes in all things CG related from volumetrics to identity design. Thanks for taking the time to check us out.

It started when I was 8, my uncle gave me a 35mm camera. At age 12, my parents bought a video camera which I never put down. As a result, I’m not in many of our home videos. I would plug and unplug some VCRs with our camera to cut video and add then music. I didn’t know it at the time, but I was editing. In high school, I did black and white photography. I wanted to add movement to the frame and started attending the CEC (Career Education Center). This lead to an internship at NBC 9 News while I was in high school. When I graduated, it turned into my first job. At the age of 19, I was the youngest editor at NBC 9. Getting up at 3am and cutting the news was fun, but I was more into feature films and commercials. Luckily, I was soon recruited by Update Productions. Long story short, one thing lead to another, 18 years later, I’ve captured video of the Dalai Lama, Michael Jordan, and Barack Obama. I’ve also worked on projects like the Oscar winning documentary “The Cove.”

It all began with an appreciation of film and how through motion pictures as a child I could be transported to different worlds, connect with characters and be introduced to emotions. From there I began experimenting with different aspects of video/film production. Starting out as a PA on reality television I quickly gained experience working in art, lighting, grip, camera and eventually getting the opportunities to direct. Working on all forms of media from commercial, documentary, reality, music videos, events and feature films. Video & film have given me the unique opportunities to be creative and has broaden my outlook on life.

I am a freelance cinematographer / editor based out of Denver, CO. I graduated in 2009 with a degree in Digital Cinema, and I have been working professionally in the field ever since. Currently I am freelancing for various companies, shooting nationally airing tv programming, feature length and web based documentary projects, and commercial work.

I am an extremely passionate and dedicated individual who thrives in a fast paced, unpredictable environment. I will always go above and beyond, to give clients what they are looking for and more. Whether filming big mountain skiing in Alaska, big game hunting in the backcountry, or covering the action sports scene in Colorado, I feel most in my element shooting people doing what they love in the beautiful outdoors. Characters, natural beauty, my family, and maybe the occasional beer keep me going, anything that keeps the heart pumping…

In 2011 I was nominated for a regional Emmy Award for my work as the Director of Photography and editor on the “My Hospital” ad campaign. Also in 2011, I was the Director of Photography for a nationally airing commercial for Mossy Oak. In 2012 a Telly Award for best online documentary was given to “Global Dance Festival – The Movie” where I was the lead videographer, and an essential part of the production team.
