We're in the thick of spring gala season right now. Long days. Lots of editing. Plenty of coffee.

So last week, we hit pause and headed to the escape room at Mall of America for a BKM Funsies day!

Did we escape? Technically... no. But we only needed 2 hints, and we got on such a hot streak at the end that they paused the timer briefly to let us finish. We're calling that a win!

Get well soon, Jared. We missed you in there (and could've used you on that last puzzle)!

We added a 24'x12' c*c wall to our studio last year, and we've been looking for every excuse to use it!

This shoot with was a great one. We partnered with their team to film a series of internal training videos for one of their clients, and the c*c wall gave us exactly what we needed: a clean, professional background that keeps the focus on the person in front of the camera. Pair that with our sound-treated space and you've got a perfect, fully controlled studio environment for filming!

We always have a blast going behind the scenes with the Minnesota Zoo Foundation. Getting an up-close look at the care and dedication they give every animal never gets old. This year, we're telling the stories of Snooki 🐢 and Sadie 🐻!

Her family wrote her obituary. Then, three days later, she miraculously opened her eyes!

We recently had the honor of telling Mindy's story for the American Heart Association's Mission: Lifeline Stroke Initiative.

A camping trip turned into emergency open-heart surgery. Multiple strokes and seizures. A coma. Weeks of silence. Her husband Dave wrote her obituary, and then, the day before her birthday, Mindy woke up.

She couldn't walk or lift her arms. But every day she fought her way back through intensive rehab. Today, she’s living proof that hope, resilience, and community can change everything!

We had a zoo-per time at the Minnesota Zoo! 🐾

The Blue Key Media team spent an unforgettable day filming at the 🎥✨ It was especially memorable because we witnessed the newly-rescued wallabies enter their habitat for the very first time! 🦘

The team saw firsthand all of the amazing care staff provide daily to rescued animals, which is made possible by the generosity of the zoo’s donors.

We continue our journey through the neuroscience field! 🧠🎬

The BKM team spent two wonderful days filming with Mark. We learned about his story and connection to the neuroscience space. His work in mathematics is an often overlooked, yet critical, aspect of the field that we are excited to highlight in the docuseries. This series aims to show students that anyone can be a neuroscientist and invites them to explore it as a potential career or field of study. 🥼🎓

Blue Key Media loves connecting with new people and hearing their stories. 😊✨ We can’t wait to meet the next member of this documentary!
