I’ve been fortunate to witness some incredible moments in our industry. Standing on a commercial set watching a director and DP solve an “impossible” lighting challenge in real-time. Sitting in a post session where an editor finds the perfect cut that transforms an okay spot into something you can’t stop watching. Being in a music session where a composer plays three notes that suddenly make everything click.
In my previous life, I got to interview the best of the best in production (I’m looking at you, Kerstin Emhoff … and your production contemporaries). These conversations were some of the most fascinating I’ve ever had in this business. And when I was at the trades, the stories that really stood out and made impact were the ones that included agencies, production companies, and clients working together.
These moments happen every day in production companies across the world. And they’re some of the most fascinating stories our industry has to tell.
The craft, the artistry, the problem-solving that happens in production companies deserves as much recognition as possible. Production companies need even more visibility to talk about process, philosophy, and what makes great work happen behind the scenes.
That’s exactly what we want to showcase.
The Stories Our Industry Needs to Hear
Production companies are essential partners in bringing great campaigns to life. You’re the editorial houses that find the story buried in 40 hours of footage. The post facilities that turn “fix it in post” from panic into magic. The music houses that compose those three seconds that stick in someone’s head for months. The VFX studios that make impossible briefs look effortless.
Why We Showcase Production Companies
You’ve got incredible stories to tell. The problem-solving that happens when a director’s vision meets budget reality. The creative decisions that turn good concepts into unforgettable moments. The technical innovations that push the industry forward.
Production companies need even more visibility to talk about process, philosophy, and what makes great work happen behind the scenes.
We change that. We put production companies in front of the camera as much as possible. We love nerding out with you.
What We Offer Production Companies
Instead of just mentioning your work, we go deep. We hear about the creative choices that most people never see. The technical challenges that pushed you to innovate. The collaborative moments that made great work possible.
Live Interviews & Deep Dives – 15-minute “Meet an Indie Production Company” sessions where you get to talk about your work, your process, your creative philosophy. No client filter. No award show speech. Just real talk about what makes great production happen.
Member Consultation Sprints – Our 15-minute consulting sessions have helped indie agencies land coverage in major industry publications. We’ll help you craft pitches, refine case studies, and figure out how to get your story out there.
Industry Recognition – Access to our four dedicated indie awards per year. Finally, a chance to get recognized alongside the indie agencies you collaborate with.
Business Development Support – Through Indie Agency Connect, you’ll be visible to marketers looking for production partners. We’ve got over 220 indie agency members who could become collaborators.
Community & Networking – Join groups, connect with other production companies, share insights with agencies. Build relationships that lead to better briefs and bigger opportunities.
Content Assets – Get audio/video files from your interviews to use for business development, marketing, awards submissions, and more.
The Real Value: Maximum Visibility
When production companies get the chance to share their thinking, interesting things can happen. People start to understand not just what you do, but how you think. Your approach to problem-solving becomes part of your reputation, not just your work.
Visibility creates opportunities for connection – with potential collaborators, future team members, and clients who value your process as much as your output. It’s about being known for your thinking, not just your reel.
And we like to have a lot of fun telling stories over here.
That’s the platform we’re building for you.
The Offer: $399 for Your First Year
No matter if you’re a two-person music house or a 50-person post facility. No matter if you’re in Brooklyn, Budapest, or Brisbane. Same price, same access, same opportunity to step forward and be heard.
We can get you set up in your home currency, and this offer lasts until the end of the month. This is a one-time deal exclusively for production and production-related companies – editorial houses, post facilities, music houses, VFX studios, sound design companies, and content studios.
Because honestly? The industry needs to hear from you.
Every campaign that makes people stop scrolling started with a brief. But it became something memorable in your hands. Your technical expertise, your creative choices, your problem-solving—that’s what turns concepts into culture.
We’ve built the platform. The agencies are here. The audience is listening.
Ready to join the conversation? We’ll keep this offer open for the next three weeks.
