Carson Coots Founder & Production Director

From print campaigns to websites to photography and video, I like to do anything that allows me to be creative.  I graduated from Texas State University and built a career in advertising, design and photography. I love graphic and web design, but filmmaking is my true passion. I created Cognitive Films around what I love to do:  Tell stories. Let me tell yours. Please?

Samantha Scott Production Manager & Editor

I graduated from the University of Kentucky with a BA in Telecommunications, focusing on video production. I went further in depth throughout the duration of several internships and found myself editing a documentary that has been aired on WOUB-TV. Video production is my passion and my goal is to use my imagination and creativity to tell your story.
