About

Io Communications was established in August of 1983 when its two principals Jeffrey Mills and Barbara Mills, graduates of UT’s Radio-Televiosn-Film program, left their respective media jobs (Indie Film Co., NASA) to launch a video production comany. And what an auspicious date…Hurricane Alicia would hit two days later. 

Thirty-nine years later, we are still standing, with a wide array of experience beginning in corporate communications, adding motion graphics, and then after filing for our 501(3)(c) in 2004 embarking on independent documentary production.

Along the way we’ve learned many skills, the most important of which is: Listen

Listen to our client's needs, listen to our hearts when we know soemething isn’t working,
and listen to schedules—there’s always a good reason for them.

It’s been fun too. We’ve built long friendships with crews and clients, enjoyed the places we’ve been able to travel to, and have been educated and enriched by the projects we have tackled.
