Shot on Film, from 8mm and 16mm to 35mm.

For the campaigns that want texture, grain, and a look no filter reproduces, we shoot on film and finish it for every screen.

What it is

A Look That Can’t Be Faked.

Film still does something digital can’t: the color, the grain, the way highlights roll off. We shoot Super 8 and 16mm for energy and nostalgia, 35mm for the hero spot, and finish each with a scan and grade that keeps the character while meeting modern delivery specs.

It’s a choice we make with you on the brief, when the idea and the brand call for it, and it’s planned so the film day also yields stills and digital coverage for everything around the spot.
