Content and creative direction for artists. Run by a musician, not an agency.
One artist, one month, one format built specifically for him. See who we work with →

Most artists are told to "post more." Almost none are told what to post. They end up making a different thing every week, hoping something sticks, and burning out before anything compounds.
We work the other way around. We find the one format that fits you — something only you could make, built around what you're actually good at — and then we make it every month until it works. One shoot day, twelve finished assets, a format that gets sharper each time instead of starting from scratch.
It's run by someone who releases music too. That means shoot days are built around how artists actually work, and the direction comes from someone who understands why you'd rather be in the studio than in front of a camera.
Artists who are already making music and want it in front of more people. Solo artists, bands, producers, DJs. You don't need a following, a label, or a plan — but you do need to be actively releasing or performing, because that's what we build the content around.
Anyone who wants a one-off video and nothing else, or who isn't making music yet. This works because it compounds month on month — a single shoot with no follow-through won't do much, and we'd rather tell you that upfront.
No. Most of the artists we work with weren't, at first. The format does most of the work — we build it around something you can already do rather than asking you to perform a version of yourself you don't recognise.
One shoot day a month, usually two to three hours. Everything for the month comes out of that session. Between shoots you don't need to film anything unless you want to.
Twelve finished assets a month, a format built specifically for you, creative direction on the shoot, and a monthly report on how it's performing. On the management tier we also schedule and post everything and run the account day to day.
We change it. The first month is about finding what sticks, and the data tells us fairly quickly. Formats get refined as we go — that's the whole point of running the same thing monthly instead of guessing every week.
Honestly, it varies. Some formats move in weeks, others take a few months to find their audience. Anyone promising you a number on a timeline is guessing — what we can promise is consistent output and a clear read on what's working.
No lock-in. It's monthly, and you can stop whenever it stops being worth it. Most artists stay because the format gets better the longer it runs, not because they have to.
Melbourne, usually out of the studio, occasionally on location or on set if there's a release or a music video happening. If you're not local we batch everything into the days you're in town.
