Our Capabilities
We write, produce, direct, shoot and edit for most formats, and we've been fortunate to work with world-class brands and award-winning talent on both sides of the camera. Whether your project requires creative, strategy, production support—or all of the above—we've got you covered.
Creative
We're skilled in concept development, storyboard illustration, casting, directing, and producing. We partner with you to bring ideas to life and create striking content that captivates your audience.
Strategy
We'll work with you to ensure that your message resonates with your target through market research, audience analysis and campaign planning.
Production
From pre- to post-production, we handle every aspect of the process from set design and buildout to cinematography, photography and editorial so your project gets noticed.
Project
Management
We love deadlines. We really do. From planning to execution to delivery, we'll see to it that your projects are on time, within budget, and surpass expectations.
In-House
Studio
Our studio offers a friendly and controlled environment for interviews, green screen, portraits, tabletop video + photo, which can equal a budget-friendly, agile solution.
As a down-to-earth creative production company—
We create insightful stories that bring credibility to brands through honest, authentic content.
We're nimble. We hail from the worlds of hit TV series and big-budget advertising, but we are scrappy and skilled at maximizing production dollars.
We embrace challenges — from budgets to timing to diva animal talent. That’s part of the fun of it.
We mind our footprint and try to do good by donating our services to mission-driven organizations and a portion of our profits to causes we care about.
We're detail-obsessed, yet totally easy-going.
Recognition
We started collaborating on our first projects in our teens during the mid-90s when standard definition was how things rolled and cameras were filled with tape. A few years later, we followed similar paths to New York, then on to Connecticut where we set up a production shop halfway between Boston and New York. Based in Stonington, CT now, we produce, write and direct projects with a roster of talent both on and off camera. Oh, and the the cameras are much better now - no tape.
About us
Jessie
Hoyt
Throughout her advertising and production career, Jessie has thrived on bringing creative ideas to life. She’s worked with two of the top five Fortune 500 companies and other giants in consumer goods, education, finance, healthcare and real estate.
She enjoys many things (too many to name really), but her favorites include being on the water with her family, taking walks with the studio dog, Bruno, working in the garden and cooking — especially when the cabinets are almost bare and she makes something great out of nothing. Very producer-ly of her.
Chris
Fondulas
Chris started his filmmaking career in in 2005 after joining I.A.T.S.E. Local 52 and working in the sound department. Transitioning to writing and directing, he founded several production companies before forming Hoyt + Fondulas where the primary focus is to create fun, engaging content, collaborate with friends and colleagues old and new and have a little fun while doing so.
If he's not weeding the garden or cleaning out gutters, he can be found snowboarding, spending time with his family or tinkering in the H + F production studio.
