In The Works
Ashley Maria Productions works with corporate and nonprofit clients to create engaging marketing activation videos, produce short-form films that inspire or train (or both!), and develop authentic product content for digital channels.
In many cases, we cannot showcase these projects publicly. If you’re interested in bringing us on as an extension of your in-house marketing or employee relations team, CONTACT US.

COMEDY
At a taping, new backup dancer Chloe realizes that the fitness instructor is slowly turning into a demon and expects Chloe to join the dark side, too.
Body Positive (working title) is a satirical take on the classic YouTube fitness video. This short film is an absurd, lighthearted commentary on women navigating societal expectations of their bodies (and the girl-on-girl crime that sometimes ensues as a result).
