What we make
A short list, done with care.
Every project is treated as a small edition — one director, one edit room, one considered result.
Product Films
Cinematic brand films and short-form content for product-based businesses — hero videos, launch campaigns, and social cutdowns shot with intention.
- Hero brand film
- 3–6 social cutdowns
- Behind-the-scenes stills
Food & Beverage
Sensory films for cafés, restaurants, roasters, and drink brands — the pour, the plate, the room. Menu launches, brand stories, and scroll-stopping social.
- Signature brand film
- Menu & product spots
- Reels & short-form
Local Business
Story-led films for shops, studios, and service businesses — the space, the craft, the people behind it. Built to earn trust before someone walks in.
- Brand story film
- Web & social edits
- Location & team B-roll
Also available: content creators, weddings, and sports content.
Slow,
on purpose.
From first note to final film, four unhurried steps — with enough room in each to actually think.
- 01
Introduction
A relaxed call to talk through your brand and what you're building. No pitch — just a conversation to see if we're a fit.
- 02
Creative direction
A shared moodboard, shot list, and timeline. We agree on the film before a single frame is captured.
- 03
Shoot day
A calm, considered presence on location. Natural light where possible, room to breathe, no wasted takes.
- 04
Post & delivery
Brand films are refined in the edit and delivered on a private review link within four to six weeks. Ongoing social content is delivered within three to five days of the shoot.
Meet Your Videographer
The Man Behind the Camera.
I'm Ray, the founder of Darson Ray Media. I make cinematic films for local businesses, product brands, and food & beverage — for people who care about the way something feels, not just the way it looks.
I shoot, edit, and deliver every project myself — one person, fully invested in getting it right. No handoffs, no middlemen, no compromise between what we plan and what you receive.
Based in Central Florida. Available for shoots worldwide, and always happy to travel for a project that deserves it.

Gear & Capabilities
Shot on Sony ZV-E10 II with a versatile zoom lens and a fast prime, stabilized gimbal work, and clean color in DaVinci Resolve. From concept to final grade.
Working with Ray has been such a delightful experience. He was attentive, kind, and truly took the time to listen to exactly what I needed for the videography for my studio. He goes above and beyond to make sure his clients are happy, and that level of care really shows. I'll definitely continue to use Ray for all my future events and videography needs. He's made a loyal client out of me. Highly recommend.
