The Team

Our new client is in the media and entertainment space. We will be building a future facing content and production studio, combining hybrid creative talent with innovative production technologies to create industry leading content across digital and traditional channels.

The team contains over 50 creative and production pros – everything from copy and design, through to video editors and production artists. Most of the team will be based on the East Coast (NYC) with a handful of production roles in our hubs across South America.

Working directly with the client’s marketing, events, programming, and content teams, the team will be responsible for end-to-end content development and production, delivering work for the brand’s paid media plans, owned channels (inclusive of social handles and apps), internal employee channels, partner marketing materials, and events.
