Behind the scenes

We are DYLN Media.

We believe everyone has a story worth telling.

Long before we had the words for it, storytelling was how people understood each other; a way to carry culture, struggle, and triumph forward. It matters now more than ever, and we don’t take that lightly, which is why we approach every project and subject with the care and authenticity they deserve.

Whether it’s a documentary that goes deep into real experience or a branded film that captures the essence of a company, 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 backpacking and traveling the world. Meeting people from every kind of background, and coming from a difficult upbringing himself, he discovered a shared humanity in the exchange of life stories.

We advocate for people, places, and things that are often misunderstood or misrepresented, bringing their stories to light in a way that’s authentic and built to resonate far beyond the screen. We believe effective branding is rooted in the same honest storytelling.

“Having worked with Dylan for years, there is no one I enjoy collaborating with more. I trust his instinct implicitly, always beautiful, thoughtful work.”
