Chewelah, WA, February 15, 2013 – In 2002, after twelve years of filming for a video company that produced memorial tributes, Gary Hanson decided to start CreationScapes and he has been enriching lives ever since with his incredible nature video programs that include music and scripture. The superior quality, therapeutic, and inspirational qualities of his work were soon noticed by Daystar Television Network, the largest Christian network viewed worldwide. The videos were aired nightly on Daystar for nearly nine years and are currently aired globally on the Hope Channel and SkyAngel with their newly formed Video on Demand content.
Celebrating its tenth anniversary this year, the quality of photography and music on CreationScapes is some of the best in the world. The programs are all filmed in High Definition and contain scenes from China, Britain, Italy, Hawaii, Mexico, and all over North America. They are accompanied by the natural sounds of nature and range from every theme imaginable – seascapes, mountains, flowers, baby animals, waterfalls and streams to sunsets, patriotism, farm and country, and so much more, covering all four seasons. CreationScapes even offer videos specific to holidays or special days/events as well as themes for every family memory and every age.
The videos show in perfect detail God’s amazing creations and, judging from the rave reviews, they do unquestionably calm, refresh and inspire. People often comment that watching them evokes memories of happier times they had long forgotten and introduces them to places they could only previously imagine in their dreams. Each person is able to draw something specific to them from each video; they bring comfort and healing to grieving families, sick and infirmed people residing in nursing homes, hospices and hospitals; even those who just need to learn to slow down, relax, and rejuvenate mind and spirit.
The power of the human mind is truly amazing. Hanson sees this in the thousands of emails he receives from customers who tell him the videos helped them forget their pain, both physical and emotional, by taking them to a place in their mind that gave them peace.
Many renowned musicians and performers, such as Tim Janis and Darlene Love, have teamed up with the company, as well as other great musicians and composers like Steve Hall, Mary Beth Carlson, Karin Gunderson, Paul Baloche, Shannon Wexelburg, Jackie Evanko, and more, and have contributed to PBS specials that featured CreationScapes videos narrated by George Clooney and James Earl Jones.
Global publisher Discovery House and RBC Ministries currently distribute CreationScapes programs created specifically for them, and the Word Group Australia currently distributes titles in both Australia and New Zealand.

A sample of the hundreds of reviews received by CreationScapes:
“Thank you…I have treasured my own copy of the Wondrous Christmas DVD so much that this year I’m buying additional ones to give to friends for Christmas to remind them of the true “reason for the season.” Seeing the CreationScapes DVDs originally on the DayStar channel and then ultimately buying many of them for my home video library has added hours of beautiful blessings to my life. Your talent for photography and the abilities of the artists performing the music are a wonderful way to share God’s love with countless people across this country and, probably, further into the whole world.”
“…Thanks for making my life a better experience than the killer and destructive movies out today. Thanks for the alternative!… They’re breathtakingly beautiful and inspiring. God Bless you all. Please recognize the need for this type of TV.”
“I just wanted to say thank you so much for your inspirational videos…I used to get goosebumps whenever I watched your shows on DayStar. The scenes blend in perfectly with the amazing landscapes that God himself created.”
“This is just to say THANK YOU for the blessing of CreationScapes. For years I have had trouble sleeping at night and began watching these. Had been given Quiet Place a few years ago and watched it over and over and over again. All the above arrived today….a day that has been especially painful, physically. What timing! Thank you for being a blessing and for the production of these beautiful, peaceful scenes.”
“I was unusually stressed one evening and couldn’t sleep so I watched a CreationScapes video that a friend had given me. I became lost in a world of tranquility and breathtaking beauty and could think of nothing except what I was seeing and the soothing music I was hearing. When the video ended I took a deep breath and felt so calm and relaxed – when I looked at the clock I was shocked to find over one hour had passed and yet it felt like a short time. I slept like a baby that night. What a way to de-stress! Thank you for your incredible work.”
