About DMM Productions
DMM Productions is a Minneapolis-Saint Paul based video production company specializing in strategic corporate video for banks and financial institutions, educational institutions, and manufacturing and construction companies across Minnesota and Wisconsin.
We create video sales systems that strengthen your message, engage your audience, and support your business goals.
Our Story
DMM Productions didn’t start in a film program, it started in a marketing classroom.
That marketing foundation still shapes how we work today; every video we create is grounded in strategy, not just visuals.
DMM started in 2020 and went full time in 2024, and since then we've made video for banks, schools, manufacturers and agencies across the Midwest.
How We Work
We handle every stage of your video and guide you through every step: strategy, creative direction, scripting, filming, editing and final delivery.
You get one point of contact from the first call to the final file, so you don’t need to coordinate multiple vendors, chase updates, or wonder what's next.
Most projects take 6 to 8 weeks from the discovery call to final delivery, with revisions built into one project price.

Why We Build a Custom Crew for Every Project
No two shoots need the same people. A testimonial in a bank lobby, a recruitment shoot across a school district and a capabilities video on a running factory floor each call for different skills, gear and crew sizes. So instead of sending the same team to every job, we build the crew around your project: a director of photography and gaffer for polished interviews, drone and second-camera operators when the story needs scale, and editors and sound designers who know your industry.
You get exactly the people your video needs, and you don't pay for the ones it doesn't. And because Dakota leads every project from the first call to final delivery, you still have one point of contact no matter how big the crew gets.
