The Whole Gamut – Promo Video

Video production Minneapolis


We create videos that showcase our clients’ products and services. Well, this time we turned the cameras around on us! Our team had a lot of fun creating this new promotional video highlighting our studio capabilities. 

Welcome to “The Whole Gamut.”


We used drones, motorized sliders, and we even we built a rotating platform big enough to host a small dance party — just an example of how our team always puts in the maximum effort to produce results!

Creative Team Expands in 2022!

We are excited to announce our most recent addition to the Gamut One Studios’ creative team. Say hello to Mackenzie Peterson! 

Mackenzie is a very familiar face around the studio because she has worked with us on a part-time, per project basis since October of 2021.  As the quantity and scope of our video projects are ever increasing, we are pleased to announce she has accepted to join our team as full-time production assistant and video editor.

As our production assistant, Mackenzie will continue to work with our clients and the leadership team with both video and still image production. This role comes with many hats, all which Mackenzie puts on with a smile and a cheerful attitude!

Sorting clips, splicing footage, creating titles and graphics, and selecting and cutting scores are just a few of the fun tasks of a video editor. Mackenzie has proven to deliver on all of these, and the results are impactful and creative videos for our clients.

2019 Super Bowl Party Highlights

Each year the team at Gamut One Studios decides to benefit a local charity through a silent auction at our Super Bowl party. We chose Second Harvest Heartland because they are one of the nation’s largest, most effective and most innovative hunger-relief organizations. Every $1 donated provides three meals.

Super Bowl 53 went down as the lowest scoring game in NFL history; however, at our 9th annual Super Bowl party, fans showed up and scored big for Second Harvest Heartland.

In addition to raising $2,827 through the silent auction, the food drive yielded over 300 items.

We want to thank all our corporate and private sponsors for donating to the silent auction. Our sponsors were: 3M, Caribou Coffee, Barb Koshenina, Chanhassen Dinner Theater, Chili’s Bar & Grill, Wild Wings, Larkin Hoffman, Claudia Wilde, Therese Bartlett, Northern Radiator, Droolin’ Moose, Wooden Hill Brewery, Frost River, Brandless, and Red’s Savoy Pizza.

The annual chili cook-off contest is one of the most talked about offerings at our party, and the biggest question each year is, “Who will take home the coveted Golden Chili Pepper Award?  This year we had 6 varieties of chili for our guests to enjoy. The chili creators are kept anonymous to the guests and each guest can enjoy all varieties, but then has just 1 token to vote for his or her favorite.

Greg Kamin’s “Rio Rancho” – a hearty cacophony of spicy, sweet and savory was the winner this year. Among the jalapeños, pinto beans, and spicy beef, Kamin also packed in bacon and sweet onions.

“I put a lot of attention to the details with this labor of love, especially my hand- picked batch of jalapeños from Rio Rancho, New Mexico,” Kamin said with a smile and a proud pose in the Gamut One Photo Booth.

As always, guests have fun in the photo booth. Enjoy a quick video here and we hope you can join us next year!
