Way of working

During pre-production, we work towards a moment shortly before the shoot where we keep the team and customer informed and coordinate the important decisions. For example, we provide several promising concepts when it comes to creative proposals, the chosen concept will be further elaborated in the production book. Services such as casting, wardrobe, set design, or props are also clearly set out in the production book and discussed with the client and/or all stakeholders, and jointly chosen and decided.
As a result, you as our client and/or all stakeholders have sufficient input and are aware of the concepts and choices made. This ensures a production where everyone knows what is going to happen. During production, we come to an agreement with the client and/or stakeholders. During post-production, there are several moments where we look at the work ahead with the current images and create space for feedback and iterations, this way we can guarantee a successful delivery of the final assets.

BMW M850i xDrive Gran Coupé

These stills are part of a content production for BMW Nederland. It took a lot of retouching to get the image tight and clean first. Perspectives have of course been corrected and then the windows are raised and we have adjusted the view. This image was shot in our studio, which is already nice and spacious, but has now become really huge due to the raised walls and windows. The concept for this content series of the X1 drive was to visualize the modern features with a stationary car in the studio. The charging, the electric car. Sustainability. And the smooth sound of electric motor driving.

Puik Design | Studio Zelden

For Puik we have been able to provide a full-service production including set design and styling. Due to the natural daylight that our studio invades so beautifully, we were able to capture a beautiful image concept of the furniture and accessories. We are proud to continue a collaboration with Puik for ''their Always-on content'' this year.

&klevering

&Klevering

&Klevering is a tasteful, original, and recognisable home accessory label. With three shops and a webshop &Klevering is well known in Amsterdam and far beyond. With a strong image strategy and beautiful photography & film production, we brought their products to life. Let yourself be transported into the checkmate, fluid curves, new blues, natural natives, and exotic world of &K.

HEMA

We also have been able to produce multiple photography productions for another Dutch Icon. The brand HEMA is known for its happy and approachable imagery, which was actually the direction we took with the different photography productions. The images are high-quality but still maintain the HEMA feel, and have a multi-channel purpose.

Flink

The popular delivery service Flink is colouring the nation pink. Also with the new campaign, where the brand has approached us to produce atmospheric and tabletop photography. These images were seen throughout the Netherlands and could be spotted on multiple busy spots located in the biggest Dutch cities. To create the right feeling for this campaign, we painted our studio pink, sourced the models, and set the tables to visualise the perfect dinner occasion with Flink.

Bijenkorf

For the Dutch luxury warehouse Bijenkorf, we have produced lifestyle and packshot imagery that helps the brand to optimise de current e-commerce imagery. The goal was to capture the towels in such a way, that you could feel de luxurious and soft feeling through the screen. The images of the collections, all with different textures and feels were used by Bijenkorf on their website.

Adidas

In collaboration with Mediacom, we produced the adidas seasonal stars campaign. A varied campaign with inspiring stills, where six national talents modeled the kicks and fits of adidas. The shoot took place in different locations around Amsterdam and Zaandam, and was seen on the different social media channels of the six talents.

Jimmy Joy

For the brand Jimmy Joy we produced monthly online content consisting of stills, animations, and snappy social videos. This production was a shared service where the brand was also partly responsible for creating the concepts. Based on this we created the visual concepts and produced a full-service production.

Smirnoff

Hanging out and enjoying a cold Smirnoff Ice was the authentic feel of this international campaign. This full-service production took place in different locations throughout Amsterdam and was shot in one day. Besides the photography we also took care of the styling, location, and model sourcing and editing the digital and film photography, that was seen all throughout Europe.

Naïf

For NAÏF we optimised the existing product photography to give the assets a more premium look and feel that fits the brand. We upgraded the grading, colour, and shadows and gave the assets a more high-end look.

Plantery

For the start-up brand Plantery, we produced the image strategy and image production. This created a complete portfolio, for the brand to use for different purposes. We used the imagery to create the webshop and website, and the images were used to set up the brand's Instagram. The look and feel reflect the brand and created the foundation for the brand identity.

Teeez

For the cosmetic brand Teeez, we produced unique imagery where the process started with creating image concepts. These concepts were translated into the image production where we designed and styled the set with colors that compliment and make the products pop. The final assets form a beautiful and complete portfolio of stills and stop motions that the brand can use for different purposes.

Creative design studio & Digital asset production

Still Digital assets are created in post-production. The designs are based on a beautiful brand image or a well-chosen stock photo. The asset is a translation of the Brand ID and is in line with the current content strategy. In this way, the assets can be immediately used on social, web or other digital expressions.

Mixed Media Studio

Many of our digital assets have been created and produced through different technical approaches. This can be, for example, a combination of photography, CGI, compositing and motion design. Through such a combination of different technical approaches and the right talent in-house, we can create creative and innovative visuals from a-z for your brand.
