Video studio for expert brands

Video that turns what you know into clients.

We edit, produce and build video for brands that sell their expertise: YouTube channels, ads, social content and courses. With a visual identity of your own and the consistency of working month after month.

01Who it is for
Who it is for

For people who sell what they know.

Your first contact with a client is usually a video. If that video looks improvised, so does your service. We work with experts whose content needs to look as good as what they charge.

01

Law firms and consultancies

Lawyers, accountants and advisors who explain technical topics and close clients from YouTube.

02

Online schools and courses

Teams that publish often and need one consistent style across hundreds of videos.

03

Agencies and service brands

Businesses that sell consultations and want every video, ad and testimonial to push the sale.

Case studies

Results, not just pretty videos.

Three ways we work: building a channel from zero, sustaining a large operation, and setting up a brand’s entire video system.

Testimonials

What our clients say.

Raúl created a strong vision for the video teaser based on the information given, researched the right material and asked the right questions from the start to meet the milestones. He has a strong creative eye and a great capacity to transform ideas into action. Definitely a creative I would hire again.
Agavni JessaijanCreative Director, Heartcore-Lab
They produced something that was far better than we even imagined possible! They were great to work with, happy to make small revisions until we got the videos 100% perfect. Very responsive and super talented!
Ian HolmesCo-founder, Holme & Hadfield
5 stars all over the place. It was amazing to work with Raul and his team. He has a ton of knowledge. We will definitely work together again when we have more video projects. He’s a star!

FAQ

Before you book.

Do I have to record myself?

Usually yes, with your own gear or a setup we help you build. When you need it, we also shoot and produce with a professional crew.

How much does it cost?

It depends on the service, the editing level and the frequency. On the call we learn what you need and send a proposal with clear options.

Do you work with brands outside Mexico?

Yes. We work in English and Spanish with clients in the US, Mexico and beyond.

How long does a video take?

After your brand setup (two weeks), the first cut of a long-form video takes about five business days.

What if I want my own editor later?

You get the style guide, templates and organized projects so any editor can continue.

Manifesto

The future will be built upon irrational decisions.

01For those who dare to think outside the frame, to ask the uncomfortable questions and throw the status quo out the window.

02Change is coming whether you like it or not. What sets the brands that last apart is the ability to create something different.

03Our world is curiosity. You can’t stop change: either you are part of it or you get lost in the noise.
