About – DYLN Media

We are DYLN Media.

At our core, we believe that everyone has a story worth telling. Storytelling is not just a craft for us—it’s a powerful way to connect, learn, and understand the world around us. Whether we’re working on a documentary that delves deep into real-life experiences or creating a branded project that captures the essence of a brand, our approach is always grounded in empathy and compassion.

DYLN Media was founded by Dylan Leonard, a native of Portland, Oregon, whose passion for storytelling grew out of his experiences backpacking and traveling around the world. Meeting people from diverse backgrounds and engaging in meaningful conversations inspired Dylan to pursue filmmaking. Coming from a difficult upbringing, he found that he could relate to almost anyone, discovering a shared humanity through the exchange of life stories.

We are committed to advocating for people, places, and things that are often misunderstood or misrepresented. Our mission is to bring these stories to light, offering new perspectives and fostering connections that resonate far beyond the screen. By telling these stories in a unique and authentic way, we aim to inspire change, deepen understanding and build community.

In every project—whether it’s a film exploring the complexities of the human condition or a commercial that brings a brand’s vision to life—we prioritize the story. We believe that effective branding is rooted in authentic storytelling, and it’s through these narratives that genuine connections are made.

At DYLN Media, we don’t just tell stories; we live them. We approach each project with the care and authenticity it deserves, ensuring that every story is told in a way that truly matters. The world is full of stories waiting to be shared, and we’re here to bring them to life.

Join us on this journey as we continue to explore and share what shapes our world.
