About us

We’re a bunch of experienced, passionate and awarded creative hired guns, who have a common passion for visual stories with a message that makes sense. As the world overflows disposable media content at an accelerating pace, it's clear that competition for audience attention is getting riper and tougher. In this contest, the winners are those able to tell stories in an entertaining, interesting way. These are the storytellers with the most listeners around their campfire.  For entertainment, it’s enough that the audience enjoys it, but the commercial stories must also be effective. They have to cause action. The action that the advertiser can detect in their cash flow. We know what high-quality stories can accomplish, and how they can be achieved. Why? Because we’ve done mountains of them. No matter the media or scale, creativity is the single biggest factor in marketing, with which we can offer our clients significant surplus value. Our strategic goal is to raise the creativity of Finnish media advertising work by work to the highest international level. We want to reveal this unique mindset of the worlds happiest and best-performing nation to the globe. So, we’re here to fight for creativity and quality because it’ll benefit you, and all of us, the most.

It's just common sense!

PHOTOGRAPHY

The modern media landscape requires endless flexibility and an understanding of the roles of different channels. Still, the core remains: The message must be presented in the most effective and elegant way possible. Throughout our years of experience, we’ve accumulated a diverse range of tools and styles for content production. Now, we want to share them with you to squeeze the most out of your message. Whether it's small or big, it has to make sense.

 

The story creates a deeper understanding of human nature that we experience when we hear or see what has happened to another human being. The story must be interesting for the listener. It must be somewhat true, and it must be bursting with emotion. Our screenwriters arrange the story elements in a way that makes the overall impression fascinating. They are the best of the best, able to solve your communication challenges - guaranteed.

 

Sometimes, a whole story can fit into one picture. The best narrators of such stories are photographers - masters of aesthetics who see life’s essential moments and are able to capture them for us to see. These photographers are award-winning, industry-leading pros. They have built hundreds of domestic and international brands. We can say with confidence that they will find the right solutions for your needs.
