CRAFT. NARRATIVE. CULTURE.
Story Vessel is a video production and animation studio working with brands, industrial teams, and public institutions to document the people behind the work.
We capture and preserve a brand’s heart and soul.
Our work spans several forms, often overlapping as a project evolves. We move between motion and stills, documentary narrative, and animation.
Motion + Stills
Video production and photography grounded in real moments and real environments. From lifestyle campaigns to workforce storytelling to institutional documentation, we focus on the people and culture that shape the work.
Narrative Work
Brand, nonprofit, civic, and institutional films shaped through listening, care, and editorial judgment. We work with organizations that value legacy, clarity, and long-term meaning over noise.
Animation
Narrative-led animation and motion design are used to clarify complex ideas, extend live-action work, and add structure to technical or institutional stories. Whether supporting campaigns or explaining process, animation serves the story.
A PARTNERSHIP SHAPED BY EXPERIENCE
Jenée Arthur and Amos Morgan (“JAM”)
The heart of our work is the dynamic and trusted partnership we've built on creativity and a shared commitment to doing business our way with excellence and authenticity.
Equally as important, Story Vessel was created to house both imagination and execution; a hybrid creative and production agency. While these two disciplines often live separately, Jenée and Amos created something far more powerful by uniting them: clarity of vision, continuity of process, and a deeper connection to the work and our clients.
Jenée is the master orchestrator, ensuring every detail aligns seamlessly with the bigger picture. She brings precision, passion, and a deep understanding of how to turn ideas into reality, keeping projects on track while making the process enjoyable and engaging.
Amos is the visionary, shaping concepts into compelling stories. His ability to envision the bigger story while elevating the finer details makes for a creative force that brings projects to life with impact.
Together, we merge the professional with the personable, balancing expertise with a genuine love for what we do. We believe good business is built on trust, talent, and a little bit of fun and laughter along the way; therefore, we approach every project with dedication, creativity, and a human touch. Just ask our clients
We can’t wait to create something great with you!
Industries We Serve
We work with teams building things, companies shaping infrastructure, municipalities serving communities, and brands driven by and preserving legacy.
Industry & Manufacturing
Our perspective and experience working with clients in this sector
Some use the term “how the sausage is made” to describe the negative effects of learning the details about a certain process. For us, the opposite is true. Understanding how the world around us operates, from the food we eat to the products we use and the cars we drive, instills a sense of wonder about the marvels of human innovation. And the most important part for us is getting to see the faces and meet the unique individuals who are building the web of our connected world.

Civic & Municipal
Our perspective and experience working with clients in this sector
Every community is supported by people whose work often goes unseen; the organizations that quietly shape the places we call home. Through still photography, film, and animation, we create visual stories that pay homage to these essential people and institutions, revealing the humanity behind the systems we rely on and helping communities better understand, appreciate, and connect with the work and workers that serve them every day.

Small Business
Our perspective and experience working with clients in this sector
As visual storytellers, understanding and honoring a brand is an authentic source of enjoyment for us. We love exploring and expressing the eccentricities of every brand in a visual manner that connects with employees, customers, and clients. While we gleefully enjoy reading a brand guide like it was a NYT best-seller, we’re also fully capable of working with what you have to develop design guidance to create seamless visuals that speak to your company’s identity.
