From a Campus Project to a Toronto Production Company
Founded in 2014 by Dario Nouri and Kyrill Lazarov during their time at Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryerson University), Lapse Productions began by creating engaging videos for student groups. What started as a campus initiative has grown into a trusted video production company serving clients across Toronto’s finance, tech, healthcare, manufacturing, and education sectors.
We have been called chameleons, and we wear it proudly. We adapt to any industry, brand, and format, translating a client’s vision into video whether they are a fintech startup, a hospital network, or a manufacturer on the factory floor. We stay founder-led and hands-on, so the people you meet are the people who deliver.
We also host Creatives Grab Coffee, a podcast about the business of video production, where we talk with the people who run studios and production companies about how the work actually gets sold and made.

Why Lapse
What Makes Us Different
The reasons clients stay with us, and refer us.
Founder-Led, Start to Finish
You work directly with the founders, not an account manager who hands you to a junior team. The people who scope your project are the people on set and in the edit.
Full Service Under One Roof
Strategy, video, photography, and drone, all in-house. One team, one standard, one invoice.
Between a Freelancer and an Agency
The polish and reliability of an agency without paying for the layers of staff an agency carries. The flexibility of a freelancer with the depth of a full crew behind it.
ROI Over Vanity
We optimize for results that move your business, not awards or vanity metrics. Every video is built to do a job.
Our Vision
Every video should do a job for the business that paid for it. We want Lapse Productions to be the team Toronto companies call when a video has to earn its budget.
Our Mission
We turn what a client has in mind into corporate video production that works: planned around a goal, filmed by the founders, and delivered ready to use.
How We Work
Our Approach
Three steps that turn a business goal into finished video.
Strategic Planning
We align every video with your business objectives before a single frame is shot.
Creative Storytelling
We craft narratives that resonate with your audience and hold their attention.
Technical Execution
Cinema cameras, proper lighting, and broadcast audio, so the finished video holds up on a phone screen and a boardroom display.
What We Stand For
Our Values
On Every Project
Dario and Kyrill plan it, shoot it, and deliver it. You are never handed off.
Plain Pricing
Every quote is itemized, and our rates are public before you ask.
Built for a Result
We start from what the video has to do, then choose the format.
Yours to Keep
You own the final files and the raw footage, with no recurring fees.
