Narratives Grow in the understory
InnoNative is a documentary-driven creative studio and education practice grounded in collaboration, relationship, and shared growth.
How We Work
We operate as a small, intentional studio, scaling only when needed. Our work prioritizes collaboration over authorship, depth over volume, and continuity over speed.
Who We Work With
Indigenous communities, artists, and organizations, and institutions aligned with community-centred, collaborative practice.
What We Do
Film & Documentary Practice
Collaborative documentary and narrative work, including short and feature films and music videos approached as cinematic storytelling.
Education & Training
We design and deliver hands-on education and training in storytelling, filmmaking, photography, graphic design and more - working in close relationship with artists, businesses, and communities.
Strategic Creative Support
We integrate creative services, training, and strategy to help communities and organizations align storytelling with broader goals.
Who We’ve Worked With
InnoNative has had the pleasure of working with many incredible organizations over the years, from Indigenous communities and governments, to local businesses, and top class institutions.

The understory is where roots intertwine and conditions for growth are created together. Our films, music videos, and education programs are developed in relationship with communities, shaped through trust, and built to last.
