Who we are

Pocket Moon Studios is a creative studio specialized in emotional, story-driven filmmaking for big screens and small.

We’re devoted to capturing
everyday magic in the realms of commercial and narrative fiction.

Whether it’s animated or live action, we make work that’s elevated, fun, poetic, and real.

We approach each project with a director’s eye, a writer’s heart, and a producer’s discipline. The result is work that’s crafted with intention and designed to evoke raw emotion.

Our films are rooted in observation and empathy, shaped by a deep respect for human experience, and most of all, they’re a joy to make — because filmmaking, creating, is the love of our lives.

I’m Maple Shipp, Pocket Moon’s founder and creative lead.

I’m a New York–based film director with over a decade of experience in production and post-production. My background spans everything from writing to editing, motion design to art direction.

As an award‑winning creative voice in the industry, I’ve built a boutique studio that thrives on emotion, cinematic craft, and most of all, good story.

If you think the Pocket Moon method of storytelling is right for your project, give us a holler — we’d love to make magic together.
