Stills, film and finishing from one studio in Bergen.

Food, king crab on ice

3D rendering

Product and environment CGI composited with plates. Look-dev starts with references shot on set. If the render announces itself, it is not done.

When a physical set cannot exist, we build it. Lighting and materials are matched to plate photography so CGI does not announce itself.

Portrait, fisherman on the quay

Color grading

Show LUTs, shot matching, HDR and SDR masters. Stills can live in the same timeline. The brand palette is a decision, not a filter pack.

Grading is treated as design, not a filter. We match cameras, hold skin, and deliver HDR or SDR masters as the media plan requires.

Interior, wooden house, warm window

Motion graphics

Type, diagrams, product callouts, and brand systems built to re-version. We do not deliver a single After Effects file that only the author understands.

We design motion that can be re-versioned. Lower thirds, openers, and product callouts follow a system, not one-off animations.

Product, wool sweater, wet rock

Commercial photography

Campaign stills, product, and portraiture with controlled light. We tether, we plot, and we deliver files that survive print and crop. Retouch is finishing against a grade, not a rescue of underexposure.

We plan lighting, art direction, and capture so stills hold up in print, OOH, and digital. Tethered review on set keeps stakeholders aligned before wrap.

Location, colourful wharf houses in rain

Creative direction

Treatments, boards, casting notes, and on-set direction. We protect the idea when the day gets short, which it will.

We sit with strategy early: references, casting, and a shot list that protects the idea when the day gets short.

Portrait, ship engineer, engine room

Post-production

Picture, sound, titles, and versioning. A sixty-second master and a fifteen-second cutdown should look like siblings, not cousins who stopped speaking.

Editorial, finishing, and versioning live in one pipeline so a 60s master, 15s cutdowns, and stills from frame pulls stay coherent.
