Our Story

​ Cinematic Technologies is a video production company founded by Ethan Swords in 2007. We enjoy offering our clients cinematic videos created with the best in cutting edge technology.  

 

We firmly believe in integrity. We like to think of all our clients as friends. We take the time to understand the vision and the goals each of our clients have, so we can make sure their vision becomes a reality. We almost always end up surpassing each client’s expectations with the quality and creativity of every video we produce. ​We offer both independent (i.e. wedding, music video) and corporate (i.e commercial, promo) productions.

 

Don't be surprised if we end up shocking you with how we're able to turn a business story everyone thinks is mediocre, into one everybody's talking about. Think of a dry cleaning business for a moment. How would such a business be able to have an artistic video advertisment? Let's take it even farther - how would such a business be able to have a touching, even emotional video? Seems crazy. But we make it happen all the time. Don't beleive us? Contact us with your story, and see how we do!

 

As our name suggests, we’re a cinematic production company, and consider ourselves to be digital cinematographers as opposed to videographers. Without going into too much detail, our production “look” is one of cinematic composition (take for instance, the quality films from Hollywood’s golden age) crafted with some of the best technology the digital world has to offer.

 

Our top priorities are to understand your vision, to create a video that captures exactly what you, our valued client, have in mind, and to surpass your expectations. You can count on the fact that the video we create for you will be entertaining and visually appealing so that not only will you enjoy it, but you’ll be proud to share it with others.

 

At Cinematic Technologies, we're serious about cinematography.

 

To anyone that is thinking about inquiring of our services: I could not be more excited to talk with someone who is looking for a high quality, cinematic production. I look forward to hearing from you!

 

Ethan Swords

Ethan has been passionate about cinematography since the age of nine. He began by using his family’s consumer camcorder to make short movies with friends just for fun, but it wasn’t until he began filming recitals and performances, that at age 12 he decided to launch his own business. Gradually, he began receiving requests nearly every month to be hired for video projects simply by word of mouth. He has since been hired to film numerous events and has created a wide variety of promotional and corporate videos for companies, churches, and individuals. Once again, word of mouth presented him with a new opportunity - at the age of 15, he had the chance to add wedding cinematography to his repertoire. By age 18, Ethan had filmed over 20 weddings, with more reservations for future weddings coming in all the time. He was hired to produce a local television commercial in early 2013 that aired in late March to early April of 2014 on all major networks. Since then, he has produced a second and third commercial which aired in April of 2015 and 2016.  Although the record books have not yet released an official confirmation of this, many believe Ethan to be one of the youngest entrepreneurs to create a television commercial. An estimated 2,648,245 + have viewed the work of Cinematic Technologies, and the numbers continue to rise.

 

Ethan at age 10 filming his first wedding with a single camcorder. Even with the little gear he had access to at that time, he made it work.
