About us
branded content & premium cinematic content.
We are an ensemble of freethinking filmmakers, creative directors, creative producers, photographers, designers and digital artists from diverse cultural backgrounds and varied interests. We love ideas. We don’t just produce commercials; we shape and nurture the idea so that it becomes an effective tool for communication.
We also love writing for ads. There is nothing more exciting than cracking a deadly idea for a campaign or coming up with baselines and situations for films. But we only focus on ad films. And nothing else. We leave all the other things like print, radio, digital activations, and art direction to the experts. Because we’d like to think we’re experts at films, once we have clarity on the issue, we embark on bringing alive inspiring ideas that will provide the requisite answers.
