Content Creation
These days, people are content rich, and time poor. The bar over the quality of content that people expect is constantly being raised. Our team curates content that speaks to the right audience on the right platforms. We also know that letting an agency speak on your behalf in a certain territory can be very daunting for rights-holders and brands. We work very hard to make sure we are communicating with audience in the correct tone of voice, no matter the language. We put in place approval systems that make sure this is also a transparent process for the client. 

Design
Content is being watched now rather than being read.Any content marketing strategy for Asia needs to be underpinned with best in class design work.Our design studio creates illustrations and animations which have been used globally by our clients. This artwork often engages audiences in local markets in a deeper way, whether it is reworking a local cartoon that let’s the audience hark back to their childhood, or  artwork that may overlap with a breaking social media trend that day.

Digital Products
We are seeing a convergence in the roles of content creators and computer programmers. The definition of what content is – is being stretched.

We build these products in-house, or find the right specialist technology partner for you in market.
