ABOUT TREE9 FILMS
St. Louis Video Production. National Impact.
Tree9 Films is an Emmy®-winning video production company located in St. Louis, Missouri, serving clients across the Midwest and beyond. Established in 2015 by Chadwell and Ria Ruthsatz, Tree9 was founded on the principle that exceptional film production can be both innovative and efficient, free from gimmicks and excessive expenses. Over the past ten years, we have collaborated with a wide array of clients, including well-known brands like Yahoo Sports and Hitachi, as well as nonprofits, schools, and local enterprises. Our work encompasses national advertising campaigns, award-winning documentaries, impactful fundraising films, and cinematic content tailored for sectors such as education, healthcare, financial services, and lifestyle brands. What distinguishes us is our observe + amplify methodology: we focus not just on storytelling but on revealing the unique, genuine, and impactful aspects of our clients, bringing those elements to life with a high cinematic standard. Our adaptable team can handle all aspects of production—from scripting and casting to filming, editing, and post-production—or can provide support as needed. Whether launching a campaign in Times Square, crafting a heartfelt gala film, or producing short videos for social media, we adapt to each project's needs while ensuring resonant results. Tree9 is proud to be a woman-owned business with strong Midwest roots, known for our creativity, dependability, and impact. We are committed to expanding our services and fostering long-term partnerships with agencies, nonprofits, schools, and brands that appreciate compelling, authentic storytelling.
