About Us

Turtle Island Productions was formed in 1995 by filmmaker and Director of Photography James M. Fortier.

TIP focuses on two distinct areas of production; broadcast and corporate video, as well as Native American productions.

The former includes cable and broadcast specials and news events, corporate teleconferences, sales and training videos, marketing and promotional videos, PSAs, educational and issue advocacy videos, and video production for the web, DVDs, and video games including blue and green screen productions.

The latter area of production includes dramatic, educational, and documentary videos focusing on Native American issues and stories.

From creating "The Big Idea" to developing a workable production plan that brings it to life, Turtle Island Productions offers an imaginative stream of ideas together with seasoned skills in creating, writing, producing, and directing media communications.

Complete production packages and crewing available, featuring the Sony PXW-FS7 4K, UHD, 2K and HD camera, and the Panasonic HPX370 P2 HD camera. Also have access to Canon C300 and C500, and Canon EOS 5D Mark III with Canon L Series Lenses at competitive rates.

We have been in the industry since 1987.
