A High Concept Luxury Estate Film for

We had the pleasure of producing a cinematic property film at this exquisite estate, capturing Katie’s arrival in one of the most iconic cars ever made. Her presence, the home, and the Gullwing all embody legacy, elegance, and ambition.

Katie is an accomplished entrepreneur, and her performance brought this story to life. We’re proud of the film we created—and excited for what’s next as this one-of-a-kind home hits the market on Riata Rd, Pebble Beach, California.

Thank you so much for this glowing review, . You flatter me! I'm grateful you chose to work with me out of all the shooters you could have hired. From the moment you reached out, I had a feeling this was going to be a fun and memorable project—and it absolutely was. Collaborating with you and Martin was so much fun, and I’m thrilled that my creative input was received with grace to elevate the final result. Thank you again for trusting William and I with your production in Monterey last week. Safe travels and keep me posted on your next adventure—I can't wait to see what your massive YouTube audience thinks of the music video I shot omaling Asilomar Beach in Pacific Grove.

Great review from Natasha... "Mike recorded my 90-min stand up set at Sunset Center. He was very easy to work with, used great equipment (2 angles) so the quality of the footage is top notch, and I’m very happy with the final footage. If you’re in the Carmel area and have video needs, House of 8 Media is your spot!"
