About Us

About Us Mike Hammari and Matthew Julander have been making videos together since the mid-2000s. We started out just wanting to make people laugh with our no-budget YouTube offerings, but have gradually advanced to doing industrials, videos for non-profits, commercials, and more. Cherie Julander joined our little concern when she foolishly agreed to marry Matthew, but has proven to be a great asset for her wide range of talents and abilities.
