Although we may be filmmakers by trade, we are storytellers by nature. Venture into our world and let us weave a tale for you. We will tell you about life and love and fear and pain. We will show you laughter and tears, the devil and God. The story is the lifeblood of our world and nothing matters more.
…So lean close, and let us tell you a story.

It seems often at Whitestone, we just get to briefly celebrate a great film effort like Awake O’Sleeper before we’re right off to the next project. The truth is, we couldn’t be more excited. We realize that we get to make more films than the average filmmakers, so we just push on the gas and get to it!
Whitestone’s latest film “That’s Magic!” is shaping up to be one of our most advantageous projects yet. We’re pleased to announce Jackson Walker has signed on for our lead role as the disillusioned Magician.
The Wright Brothers Nicholas Kirk and Billy Wilkerson have been in overdrive working on the two extensive musical pieces in the film, and I’m not lying when I say it is by far their greatest work yet.
This past week, our location at the Pierce theatre was confirmed, a wonderful place to work with and a location that will set the vibe for the entire film.

Ladies and gentlemen, we are very proud to present our latest short film “Awake O’Sleeper”
A Hero comes from the wilderness to cry out to the captives, pleading for them to awaken. This short film from Whitestone was in part inspired by “Plato’s Cave” and depicts the struggle of freeing the captives, whomever they may be. This film is set to the song by the same name originally written for this film by the talented Wright Brothers: Nicholas Kirk and Billy Wilkerson.
Do you hear the Lion roar?
Download the mp3 of the song here.

Welcome one and all, to a place that we can share,
For the world is full of wonder, much more than you can bear.
We would like to humbly welcome you to our little place of digital space. The neighbors can be rowdy, and we’re somewhat hard to find, but you’re most welcome here anytime you come stumbling by.
Whitestone Motion Pictures is a boutique film company nestled comfortably between “it’s never been done,” and “it can’t be done.”
It was started many years ago by a boy with a dream, and lives on dreams today.
