We’re a creative production studio that values relationships as much as stellar work. We’re in it for the inspiration and the partnerships, and relish the bonds we’ve formed with peers at advertising agencies, production houses, and brand clients.

We guide projects from concept to delivery with discipline, playfulness, and warmth. Our super power is a background in digital production—we think animation is better with code—and it’s helped us garner a shelf full of awards.

We’ve been at it for a while. Founded in 2011 by two ad-world vets, Mia and Mike Kellogg, the studio encompasses senior artists and producers alongside a global network of partners. We’re also proud to be a woman and minority-owned business. Swing by our offices in San Francisco and Santa Cruz and say hi!

We’re comfy with every form of 2D animation: dazzling graphics, expressive type, and even stuff you’d swear was 3D. We’ve brought Cricket Wireless’s playful characters to life, animated LinkedIn user chats throughout NYC subway terminals, and taken Intel conference goers inside a virtual gaming CPU. Send us your ideas for anthems, socials, and explainers, and we’ll create a compelling piece for online, onscreen, or out-of-home.

By delighting viewers with unexpected perspectives and transporting them to otherworldly settings—places audiences could never go in real life—3D animation has our vote for the most thrilling form of animation. We can create worlds using the laws of physics, or completely turn it on its head. How else could we make a tipsy 7-11 hot dog slur their enthusiasm for the Chicago Cubs? 3D is also the best way to bring products to life, from showing off the sleek contours of a VanMoof electric bike or flying into the lush, imagined interiors of a bottle of premium vodka.

We’re proud to be one of the ad world’s leading banner production shops. While display ads may not be at the top of your creative deck, we think even the smallest ads deserve the royal treatment. We call them our mini masterpieces. You’ll be surprised what we can pull off with 150k—the golden number for standard banners—and without the expense of rich media. Plus, we’re pros at Dynamic Creative Optimization and creating customized templates for your team.

You want to make a room catch on fire, and then dowse it with indoor thunderstorms? Or maybe you need to swap out an outdated product for a current one? How about using using motion capture to create a crash test dummy that demonstrates safety in the workplace? With VFX, we can fabricate any photorealistic element that blends seamlessly into live action.
