Stories, in motion

Long-form films, documentary storytelling, and thoughtful production.

I’m Corie DuChateau — a filmmaker, photographer, and producer based in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. I create cinematic work for people, places, and brands who care about depth, meaning, and lasting impact.

This is not high-volume content.
It’s intentional storytelling, built with time, trust, and clarity.

WHAT I DO

I work with clients who value:

narrative over noise
process over speed
collaboration over transactions

My background spans documentary films, television shows, branded storytelling, podcasts, and select weddings. While the formats vary, the approach stays the same: listen first, build trust, and let the story unfold naturally.

Most of my projects are long-form and relationship-driven. I take on a limited number of productions each month to protect the quality of the work and the experience for everyone involved.

HOW I WORK

Every project begins with conversation.

We talk about:

what matters
what needs to be said (and what doesn’t)
timelines that respect the story
budgets that respect the work

From there, I assemble the right creative team, scale the production intentionally, and guide the project from concept through delivery.

No rushing.
No unnecessary complexity.
Just clear agreements and well-made work.

WHO THIS IS FOR

This work is a good fit if you:

want something that will still feel relevant years from now
understand that good stories take time
prefer fewer deliverables done well over many done quickly
are open to collaboration and trust the process

If you’re looking for the cheapest option or instant turnaround, I’m probably not the right fit — and that’s okay.

BASED IN PUERTO VALLARTA. WORKING EVERYWHERE.

While I’m based in Puerto Vallarta, I work with clients throughout Mexico, the U.S., and internationally. Some projects are rooted deeply in place; others travel.

Story has no borders.
