About Us

Plains of Yonder is an Emmy-nominated creative studio headed by directors Katrina Crawford and Mark Bashore. We concept, create, and direct narrative and visual solutions that live in diverse forms including film, brand design, physical installations, interactive art, interior design and audio art.

Each project is approached through an experimental, artistic and human lens. We come well-equipped with experience, teamwork, plain-speak, laughter, wild bird feathers and a decent short-wave radio.

One trait unites our very diverse clientele: they strive to be the most intrepid and artful communicators in their category.
