Who is Off Your Rocker Films?
Everything at McFarland Productions has a story to tell, even Off Your Rocker Films, a division of McFarland Productions that focuses on long-form films. These films focus on a wide variety of types, from western entertainment to documentary films to agricultural advocacy pieces.
Telling long-format stories requires a full film crew to provide the best film direction, creative art management, audio design and production, camera operation, graphics, and animation design. Our priority is to fully produce high-quality films with the western and agriculture industry as our focus. Below are a few examples of films we can publicly release produced by the team Off Your Rocker Films by McFarland Productions.

Oregon Jamboree
McFarland Productions (now producing long format films under Off Your Rocker Films) produced a short film series for Oregon Jamboree in 2020 when they could not have a festival. This series was a way to both produce content and tell the origin story of Oregon Jamboree in a year without a festival as well as build up for their 30th anniversary festival in 2022. This series won the 2021 Ovation! Award for Unique Marketing Campaign at Oregon Festivals & Events Association’s year end awards banquet.
Oregon Wheat Growers League
McFarland Productions produced a short video series of agvocacy films for Oregon Wheat Growers League. This series was shown at the 2021 Oregon Wheat Growers League Summit. Here’s a short snippet of that series.
Challenge of the Champions Tour
In 2020, we produced a 30 minute documentary for a small amateur bull riding series that was founded in Roseburg, Oregon. The series started with one winter bull riding that locals loved attending. It soon grew to a standing room only, sold out crowd and the CCT team decided to expand the singular bull riding to a full tour with tour championships each New Years. This documentary was funded by a grant awarded to CCT by the Roseburg Chamber of Commerce. The grant was awarded to an outstanding business that was started in Roseburg, OR, but reaches outside of the local area. We were proud to product this film for our friends and event producers, Jason and Nataly Mattox.
