About Us

tell your story

Storytelling has been around for over 30,000 years, and is universal to the human experience. We want to continue that tradition in a digital age through the use of video.

Who We Are

Our focus is not just on creating videos, but creating narrative based content that makes sense for your business or brand. We are here to make connections, inspire creativity, and give value to our clients, team, and audience. Studio Chapters is devoted to giving all our clients a premium video production experience.

What is a "Premium" Production Studio?

We take the term "premium" seriously at Studio Chapters. Our commitment to world-class customer service ensures that you not only receive first-rate, high quality video, but also enjoy excellent treatment and care throughout the entire process. We engage closely with each client through our collaborative approach, ensuring that their idea or vision transforms into a tangible product that delivers excellent results. We are here to serve our clients.


Meet the Team

Danny Zoutendyk

Cinematographer & Owner

Danny is the technically inclined side of production. Anything camera, lighting, electronic, or software related is most likely managed by him. Ever since the age of 6, Danny has had a passion for filmmaking, with his favourite part of the process being problem solving. His first film ever created was made by overwriting the vhs tape of his parents wedding. Nobody enjoyed his first film.

Toni Jackson

Creative Director & Colourist

Toni is the one in charge of narrative and creative direction. She has been a creative her entire life. This was very apparent to her parents, by the constant redecorating and repositioning of her room. Visual story telling is her passion, although she still remains unsure of what story she was telling through her high school artwork pieces.

Charmain Olckers

Production Manager & Producer

Charmain is the Admin Extraordinaire at Studio Chapters, she manages internal tasks with the precision of a film editor cutting the perfect scene. While not a filmmaker, she is the guardian of creativity, ensuring the creatives can brainstorm without interruption. Charmain has a secret room filled with post-it notes containing revolutionary ideas for the next level of business organisation.

Joshua Bennet

Lead Editor & Camera Operator

Expressing creativity has always been fuel for Joshua. Be it through a video that is edited, a picture that is painted, or a photograph that is captured. He endeavours to capture each moment in a new light and display it to the world that it may capture the eye of any who see it. Except for those that are blind of course. Joshua vows to sing for them instead.
