About Jolly Road Productions, Inc.

Jolly Road Productions is a founder-led partner in filmmaking and qualitative research delivering emotionally resonant films that spark insight, empathy, and action. Built by director and story strategist David Kalisher, Jolly Road bridges the worlds of cinematic storytelling and qualitative insight. We specialize in leadership narratives, ethnographic and segmentation documentaries, and strategic films rooted in behavioral insight. Our core specialties include: • Scripted films for leadership, coaching, and cultural alignment • Research-driven films: ethnos, personas, segmentation, UX (growing focus) • Testimonial-driven stories, educational and training content, and high-end promos • Multi-camera livestreams + internal broadcast experiences • End-to-end qualitative study design & moderation (when video is the primary deliverable) The Jolly Road network includes over 100 trusted filmmakers, editors, and qualitative collaborators; a creative community we've built over more than 15 years of consistent, scalable delivery. Supporting that creative core is a nationwide infrastructure of A/V teams and post specialists capable of both high-touch qualitative filmmaking and robust in-facility or field capture. From live streams to rapid-turn edits, motion graphics, captions, and highlight reels, we handle every stage of production with precision and care. At Jolly Road, we believe in seeing people clearly - through story. Whether working with researchers, moderators, leadership consultants, or brand teams, our goal is always the same: to create cinematic stories that help organizations understand and connect with the people they serve.
