• If you obsess about great design, beautiful branding, crafted typography, well-cut videos, inspiring animation, beautiful colour grades, moving photography and most importantly great ideas… We believe our agency will be a perfect fit for you.

• We respect individuals that want to create for the love of creating beautiful work rather than approaching briefs with an ‘it’s just a job’ mentality.

• We respect deadline-driven creatives that will make the work come alive no matter the cost.

• We respect positive individuals that bring life to our working environment rather than procrastinators.

• We respect creatives that want to learn new crafts, techniques and styles rather than being a one-trick pony.

• We love individuals that are fearless, can do whatever is tasked and are not scared of making mistakes.

• We do not respect negativity, clock watchers and individuals that are self-centred.

• We are a team, of like-minded creatives that help and build each other as well as inspire each other.

• We believe in growing our talent, making sure people grow is our priority.

• We believe growth is more than creative, but rather the value you add.

If this environment sounds like a fit for you. We would love to hear from you. If not, why? You may be surprised on what you could do with us. Don’t hate, appreciate, lol.
