Inspired Visual Storytelling

We are passionate creators of
documentary film.
With documentary film, Magic Kumquat Productions believes in telling stories that engage, inspire, and move viewers. Our goal is to cultivate inclusive, curiosity-driven work -- particularly focusing on conservation, history, and biography. The "kumquat" in our name derives from Kumquat Avenue, where we once lived in Coconut Grove, Florida, in a community with many artists, film makers, designers, and writers. We added the word "magic," because it makes us smile.
