A company with
a point of view.

One perspective. Several forms.

A film, a publication and a digital experience ask different things of their makers. Each needs a clear reason to exist, an understanding of its audience and the discipline to bring an idea into focus. Those questions connect our interests across formats.

We are drawn to work with a distinct voice: stories that reward attention, experiences that serve a purpose, and collaborations in which the people involved care about the result.

Independent by design.

Independence gives us room to ask our own questions. It also asks more of us: to explain our choices, examine our assumptions and accept responsibility for what we put into the world.

Our ambition is to make work that people return to. That begins with a deliberate point of view and continues through research, development, design and the details of execution.

From the edge of the Pacific.

Santa Monica is our home base. Its meeting of city, coast and creative life gives this site its visual language. The aerial photographs throughout these pages come from our own library.

Place matters because attention begins somewhere. A coastline seen from above can reveal relationships that are invisible from the street. The same shift in perspective can open a story or clarify an idea.
