Why us
Anyone can shoot it.
Landing it is the hard part.
One roof, no handoffs
Planning, shooting and editing happen in one building with the same people. Nothing gets lost in a handoff, and it is why we turn work around faster than shops twice our size.
We aim past the brief
Hitting the brief is the floor. We shoot more than we need, colour every frame, and keep cutting until it earns a second watch. Hennessy, Diageo and Sysco did not hire us for fine.
Built to work, not to win awards
Every piece is tied to a result. Monaco saw a 20,000% jump in engagement. Hardcore Italians went from 50K followers to over a million. We track what happens after launch, because that is the point.
What we make
What we make.
Brand films
Founder stories and origin films that give people a reason to care before you ask them to buy.
Commercials & spots
Launches, seasonal campaigns and ads. Cut for TV, web and paid social from one shoot day.
Social & short-form
Reels, TikToks, Shorts and influencer campaigns, made by people who actually use the apps.
Animation & motion
Motion graphics, animated openers and big-screen visuals. Ours have played on venue walls for Shabu Chicago and Lunar New Year.
Aerial & drone
Property reels, venue flyovers and drone shows that make a small business look national.
Event films & recaps
Multi-camera event coverage and recap cuts your sponsors can use. We have covered 20K-person events.
Interviews & testimonials
Customer testimonials, cut long for your site, short for ads and shorter for the feed.
Multi-cam podcast
Full podcast production in our studio: multi-camera, clean audio, and short clips from every episode.
Music videos & narrative
Scripted, multi-scene work with talent, styling and art direction. The hardest thing we do, and the most fun.
Branding
The film comes after
you know who you are.
Half the time someone asks us for a video, the real problem is that nobody inside the company can say what the brand stands for in one sentence. We fix that first, then we shoot.
Brand identity
Your position, your voice, your look, and the one line everything else hangs off.
Content strategy
What to make, for which platform, in what order and how often.
Creative direction
Art direction across every piece so the whole campaign reads as one idea.
Pitch decks
Investor and sponsor decks, designed to the same standard as the films.

How we work
Four moves, every time.
Discover
We learn your audience and agree on the goal before anyone picks up a camera.
Strategize
We build the idea, choose the formats and plan the shoot day.
Create
We shoot it with our own crew and our own gear, led by a director who already knows the cut.
Deliver
We edit, grade and cut it for every platform. Then we check how it did.

Do you handle branding, or only production?
Where do you shoot?

are actually trying to do.
Not the format. The result. “We need a video” is a format. “Nobody knows we exist outside Chinatown” is a brief, and it is the one we can actually solve.
We reply within one business day with either a scoping call invite or an honest referral somewhere better suited.
“Duo should be very proud of the work that he produces. Great to work with, exceeding our expectations. Easy experience, got the message we wanted.”
