Off The
Ground

Creative production studio

The studio

Every project starts on the ground. Our work is everything after — the concept, the direction and the cut that take a brand, an artist or a property somewhere it hasn’t been.

One team from the first conversation to final delivery. No handoffs, no subcontracted crews, no diluted vision. Based in Marin County, working in New York and Philadelphia.

Services

Six flight paths,
one standard.
