Default Present per./ present per. cont.

Hi guys!
I was wondering which sentence is more natural. And why?!!!
1.We are films producers. We have been making films since we graduated from college.
2.We are films producers. We have made films since we graduated from college.
* I found one possible answer in a textbook. The answer is present perfect simple. I just don't get it. Why shouldn't be present perfect continuous? The verb 'make' is an action verb and 'since' focuses on the time.
