About Hester Creative

We make video that does a job.

Hester Creative is a commercial video production studio in Tampa Bay, led by filmmaker and producer Kae Hester.

Our story

Why Hester Creative exists

Hester Creative started with a simple belief: every organization deserves to be represented well. Kae is passionate about helping companies show up with top-notch creative and well-executed media, and it frustrates him to see the opposite: no brand guidelines, and a website, social feed and video that each say something different.

Hester Creative was built to change that. We’re not just a videography or content creation company. We’re a marketing company that uses video as a tool to help businesses and nonprofits communicate with and educate their ideal clients.

We start with what your business needs to say and how your brand should look and sound, then produce video built to be used everywhere you show up, so your brand sends one clear message.
