About Arche Productions
We lead with story. Whether filming on a snowy mountain ridge, in a bustling distillery, or across a quiet interview set, we focus on capturing moments that matter — visuals that move and narratives that last.
Our core team is led by Blake and scaled by need, bringing in trusted cinematographers, editors, sound designers, and specialists to ensure each project is creatively and technically dialed in.
The Vision
Arche Productions was founded by filmmaker Blake Cortright on the belief that the best stories don't just entertain — they reveal, inspire, and endure.
With over a decade of experience in documentary and commercial filmmaking, Arche is a lean, director-led production company that creates cinematic content for visionary brands. From national campaigns to independent films, we bring story, efficiency, and creative clarity to every frame.
Why “Arche” Productions?
How do you say “Arche”?
It’s pronounced “Ar-Kay” — a Greek word meaning “beginning,” “foundation,” or “first principle.”
At Arche Productions, that meaning shapes everything we do. We help brands return to the essence of their story — and build something powerful from that foundation.
