In an industry that can often feel impersonal and corporate, gnarly bay offers a refreshing alternative.

Quality over quantity. A term that has become synonymous with Rhode Island, and perhaps more importantly; small businesses situated in the Ocean State. For gnarly bay, a local RI production company, the last few years have been formative in scaling quality into varied and diverse stories that retain the impact and resonance of their small-town roots.

Based in Rhode Island for over two decades, gnarly bay has been bringing heart and soul to storytelling since its inception and, as of this year, planted seeds out West with a second office opening in Boulder, Colorado. Tinkering their approach to scalable branded stories during the pandemic, gnarly bay has cracked the post-pandemic slump and relayed delivering inspirational stories on a local level to creating campaigns for some of the biggest names in the industry–furthering their niche in emotive, human-driven storytelling on a global front.

Some notable projects from the past year include:
