About Us: faith & family on every frame
About 3 Days Studios
Welcome to 3 Days Studios, where our team of experienced storytellers create stories that resonate deeply with audiences, reflecting values of faith, family, and resilience. We are driven by a commitment to produce uplifting, thought-provoking content that bridges generations and cultures, offering something unique in today’s entertainment landscape.
At 3 Days Studios, we’re not just crafting stories; we’re creating movements. Our flagship project, PRAIRIE WINDS, exemplifies this mission. Set across a four-season arc, PRAIRIE WINDS tells the story of the Thompson family’s journey to forge a life on the prairie. With each season, audiences witness the complexities and triumphs of community-building, from initial encounters with native tribes to the profound shifts brought by the arrival of the railroad. This saga of family and community, told with historical authenticity and emotional depth, engages viewers with timeless themes relevant to today’s world.
Why "3 DAYS" Is Our Namesake
At 3 Days Studios, our name is more than a title—it’s a testament to our purpose. "Three Days" honors the resurrection of Jesus Christ, who rose from the dead after three days to offer eternal life to all who believe. This foundational belief guides everything we do, inspiring us to create stories that uplift, connect, and inspire.
Our mission is rooted in the values of faith, hope, and redemption. Just as the three days in the tomb represent a journey from darkness to light, our stories seek to reflect a path from struggle to triumph. In a world often filled with uncertainty, we’re committed to producing content that reminds audiences of God’s love and the resilience that faith can bring to any journey.
Through each project, we aspire to honor God, offering narratives that encourage reflection, foster community, and ultimately, celebrate the profound hope found in Christ’s resurrection. We invite you to join us in this mission—where every story speaks to the heart and every message brings the light of faith.
Our Vision: Entertainment with Purpose
Inspired by the groundbreaking model of Angel Studios, the passion of The Wonder Project and Kingdom Story Company, and countless other amazing Christian filmmakers, we are focused on content that not only entertains but also connects with audiences’ core values.
We’re driven to create experiences that go beyond passive viewing. Our innovative funding model invites audiences to become active stakeholders, not just in PRAIRIE WINDS but in the broader mission of 3 Days Studios.
By building a strong, values-aligned community of investors and viewers, we are redefining what it means to be a part of the entertainment industry.
