WE SPEAK
AUTOMOTIVE.

Automotive work leaves no room for surprises. Tight timelines. Complex logistics. Multiple stakeholders. Everything has to work safely, efficiently, and at a high level. We approach it with control from the start. Clear systems. Smart decisions. No wasted movement.

MERCEDES-BENZ
A-CLASS
A cinematic brand film built inside real constraints.
Context

Mercedes needed a cinematic brand film for the A-Class. The ask came together mid-shoot, with limited time, no traditional prep window, and a production already in motion.

Our Role + Key Decisions

We developed and executed a 2-minute narrative film within an active production environment. Instead of scaling up, we scaled smart:

  • Minimal footprint crew
  • Built story around available locations + moments
  • Designed for speed without sacrificing tone

Every decision prioritized momentum and control.

Outcome

Delivered a fully realized narrative film in under two weeks. No added shoot days. No disruption to the main production.

A high-end piece, built inside real-world constraints.

KIA
NEW YEAR'S EVE
A cross-country campaign built to move in real time.
Context

Kia needed to show what an all-electric vehicle can really do, and range was the story.

The idea: drive it across the country, carrying the numerals for the New Year's Eve ball drop from California to Times Square. An electric car delivering the lights that bring on the future.

Our Role + Key Decisions

We built a production that could travel with the car.

  • Shot the road trip coast to coast, across multiple states and environments
  • Stopped at Kia dealerships along the route, where people came out to see the car
  • Collected their New Year's resolutions and sealed them inside the numerals headed for Times Square

Instead of treating it like a single shoot, we ran it as a rolling production, adapting in real time while holding a consistent visual and editorial standard.

Outcome

The numerals arrived in Times Square carrying the resolutions of the people who met the car along the way, and went up for the ball drop on New Year's Eve.

Content was captured, turned, and delivered throughout the journey, keeping the campaign alive in real time instead of waiting for a final release.

A campaign built to move, literally and creatively, without ever losing control of the result.

NIO
LYRA
A prototype launch. No car. No room for error.
Context

NIO needed a launch video for the Lyra, a vehicle that didn't physically exist yet.

No car. No access. No room for error.

Our Role + Key Decisions

We replaced the physical vehicle with a fully integrated CGI solution, designed to match the final production model with precision.

  • Partnered with a high-end VFX team
  • Built lighting and camera systems to align with a non-existent subject
  • Designed every shot to seamlessly integrate CG with real-world environments

The goal wasn't just to make it work. It was to make it feel real.

Outcome

Delivered a launch video indistinguishable from a traditional automotive shoot.

No prototype required. No compromise in quality.

INFINITI
QX60
High volume. Tight timeline. No room for inconsistency.
Context

Infiniti needed a wide range of content, from how-tos to brand moments, captured efficiently and at scale.

Multiple deliverables. Limited time. No room for inconsistency.

Our Role + Key Decisions

We used a virtual production stage to control environment, lighting, and timing, allowing us to move quickly without sacrificing quality.

  • Captured a large volume of content across multiple formats
  • Designed lighting setups that could evolve without full resets
  • Balanced performance, product, and technical messaging in a single workflow

Every decision was built around efficiency without compromise.

Outcome

A full suite of content captured in just two days.

Consistent, flexible, and built to perform across platforms.
