YOUR BUSINESS DESERVES

A FILM.

Not a feed. A story - yours, told the way television tells it, and cut into the clips that carry it every month.

STRIKE is a St. Petersburg studio that helps local businesses own their story, with the craft of television and the speed of AI. Cinematic. Local. Yours.

THE PROBLEM

THE BEST BUSINESSES IN TOWN ARE INVISIBLE ONLINE.

A thousand five-star reviews and fourteen hundred followers. Thirty years in business and a Facebook page nobody's touched since the last hurricane. We see it every week.

Your customers already know who you are. The rest of the city gets whatever's left: a logo, a phone number, a page you're embarrassed by. You're not bad at marketing. You're busy. And telling your story right - real people, real craft - takes a crew you don't have.

Now you do.

Our Story

James Carroll grew up in St. Petersburg. He left for Los Angeles and spent the next twenty years in edit bays and on sets, making multiple television shows that hit number one around the world.

He won back-to-back Emmys editing Undercover Boss for CBS. He co-directed Netflix's Night Stalker: The Hunt for a Serial Killer and directed, shot, and cut the eight-hour Netflix series Westside. He was lead editor and co-executive producer of Waco: American Apocalypse, and edited and co-produced the critically acclaimed documentaries The Seven Five and Operation Odessa. Along the way he cut hundreds of hours for NBC, HBO, Showtime, A&E, ESPN, Peacock, and the BBC, and more than two hundred sizzle reels, which is its own kind of education in getting to the point.

In 2024 he stopped working the old way. He rebuilt his pipeline from the ground up around AI, producing two weekly scripted series. What used to take a crew of forty and a month now takes him days, and it looks better.

Then he moved back to St. Pete.

STRIKE exists because the businesses in this town deserve the same storytelling the networks get, at a speed and a price that used to be impossible. James runs it the way he ran every edit bay he's ever been in: honest, fast, and finished.

HOW IT WORKS

DIAGNOSE. CREATE. DEPLOY.

Diagnose. We look at how your story shows up online - every channel, every search, every competitor - and show you where it's missing, where it's wrong, and where someone else is telling it for you. You get a written report and a plan before we cut a frame.

Create. Every month we cut eight to twelve 15-second clips that tell your story, cinematic, in your voice, built for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and Facebook. Send us your footage, or we come capture it. And for the businesses that are in for the year, we make the film: two days on site, interview, b-roll, original score, cut the way we cut for Netflix, finished in two weeks.

Deploy. We build your channels, load the rotation, and post on a schedule. You never log in. Once a month you get a one-page read on what ran and what it did.
