The history
Joey Arcisz began with action-sports films. Today, he shoots commercial film and photo and runs the production company and equipment rentals behind the work.
From wakeboarding films to commercial sets.
Joey started filmmaking in 2005. The early work followed wakeboarding, from event films in Texas to Momentum, a full-length film he directed and edited with a shoot in the Philippines.
He went on to co-found Ultralite Films with Bud Force and Erich Schlegel, shoot commercial campaigns, and work in documentary cinematography. ArchesMedia brings that work together with production, equipment rental, and footage licensing out of Dallas.
