Jasmine Nastasi

Two young and industrious sisters launched Stellar Image Studios in 2018 to serve the growing need for video. What a wild (and hugely successful) ride it has been!

Since then, SIS has continued to grow and gain recognition. Today, SIS serves a prestigious (and growing) roster of clients across the full spectrum of business and industry.

The SIS Secret to Success: deliver superior video content, with an unwavering devotion to customer satisfaction. That principle has never changed. Just ask our many clients.

Candace Bruce

As a Kansas City native, Candace loves all things KC, so SIS was the perfect match right from the beginning! Having a love of storytelling – watching, listening, and reading – she is able to make her own stories engaging. This love started when she would visit the local library with her grandmother as a little girl and it’s never gone away. And with an ear for music, she has a playlist for every story, both on and off screen. When Candace isn’t working, you can find her enjoying a book at a local coffee shop, buying another plant, or visiting the newest exhibit at the Nelson.

Our Pillars

INTEGRITY

We expect authenticity on set and in the studio. We do this by keeping it 100% with each other and providing 100% to our clients. We care about our people just as much as we care about our projects.

EQUITY

SIS is determined to make positive change by working within the video production industry to increase representation of women and minorities. We do this by providing access to resources and continuing education.

FLEXIBILITY

Environments change. Needs change. People change. Flexibility is essential at SIS for our clients and our creators. We meet everyone where they are at with a mutual understanding and respect. We get projects done on time and on budget. No barriers.

MENTORSHIP

SIS’s secret sauce is mentorship. Our foundation was built on this principle with the help of our own mentor. We continue to learn by leading the next generation of video creators.
