Capture Your Essence in a Bespoke Documentary Film
Aloha and welcome to Manoa Sky! I'm Tamotsu, founder of Manoa Sky, a boutique documentary film company based in California and Hawaii.
We believe powerful stories can change lives. Our passion is capturing authentic human experiences through bespoke documentary films made with meticulous care, heart and artistic vision. The name Manoa Sky is derived from the Hawaiian word Mānoa, which means depth and vastness. Combined with the word Sky, our intention is to capture the depth and the heights of the human experience, an embodiment of the vision to embrace the intricate layers of human existence, reaching both the depths of our souls and the heights of our aspirations.
At Manoa Sky, we partner with heart-centered businesses, nonprofits and individuals to craft customized documentary style films that share your unique story with the world.
We also offer legacy documentaries, which preserve the core essence and wisdom of a family's lineage.
Our approach is guided by the mind-heart connection, human connection, respect, compassion and joy. We listen closely to understand what matters most to you. Then through insightful interviews and observation, we artfully weave together the depths and layers of your story.

We look forward to bringing your unique story to life through the power of film!
Love, Light and Aloha,
