FOR BRANDS

CREATIVE CONNECTING

Everyone has friends (and friends of friends) they can recommend, but having a non-bias 3rd party to steer you in the right direction can keep prices competitive and prevent you from going too far down the road with the wrong vendor. We aim to ensure you're working with a creative team that meets your needs. It can be as simple as us working as a Producer with your internal team, or, bringing in an additional partner that can offer strategy and ideation through production and post. We are connected to makers of all kinds. From highly skilled individuals to full-service production companies and agencies, we can provide options that make sense for your budget, timeline, and creative needs.

IN-HOUSE PRODUCTION SUPPORT / TEAM BUILDING

We have connections to artists of all kinds and would love to share our network with you. Talent includes agency creative directors, copywriters, strategists and art directors. But, we also know a large group of independent directors, photographers, music video directors, cinematographers, set designers, choreographers, illustrators, motion graphics artists and studios, musicians, and editors. And who doesn’t love hybrids including directors/photographers, directors/cinematographers, designers/animators, editors/animators, editors/colorists, and musician/sound designers to name a few.

COST CONSULTATION / BID ANALYSIS / BUSINESS AFFAIRS SUPPORT

We have seen and made thousands of bids for live-action, design/animation, post, and experiential projects. We know rates, unions, how long things take, and most importantly how to negotiate. We can work with your agency partners or internal teams during the bidding phase and go over everything with a fine-tooth comb to ensure the brand is getting a fair price. We can negotiate on your behalf or we can be your silent partner.

INTERNAL / EXTERNAL TEAM BUILDING

Team building is what we hang our hat on at Brand Yew. As seasoned Executive Producers, it’s what most of us have done our entire careers. It is not uncommon for a brand or partner to ask us to grow their internal capabilities to establish or support their in-house production department. We can also work cross-organizational with your brand’s marketing team or creative agency to build an affordable agile team of experienced brand strategists, creatives, and producers to execute your creative content. Check out some of our case studies that illustrate how we combined internal and external teams to get the most epic results for the brand.

TALENT AGENT, CELEBRITY & INFLUENCER MANAGEMENT

When it comes to working with talent we have you covered whether it’s athletes or actors, SAG or non-union, or celebrity or real people. We are fully versed in the complexities that come with working with managers, agents, glam teams, and handlers. We can do casting, review contracts, pay services, and talent management even if you’re doing content with another partner.

MUSIC SEARCH AND LICENSING SERVICES

We can search, find, negotiate and license music rights for a song. Or, we can have a song made for you. We also have partners who are experts in audio branding and can design a library of music and sounds for your internal team to work with.

PRODUCTION SUPERVISION

We are Executive Producers from the agency and production company side with vast experience in all phases of content creation from ideation and concepting through finishing and distribution. We understand the production process holistically. And, we have produced thousands of social, digital, experiential, and broadcast campaigns between us. We move can move fast and run with it or we can slow it down and take you along for the ride. Either way, we are effective and efficient in making the process smooth and attainable for our clients.

PRODUCTION SERVICE

If you have all the creative figured out and a director (or internal creative) already driving the ship, we can act as the brand’s production arm. On paper we may be your production partners but in reality, we become part of your internal team. We work hand in hand with your internal creative team from bidding through shooting to ensure they have everything they need to capture the idea as intended. Leave the million little planning details to us as we prepare your team for a smooth shoot day.

FOR AGENCIES

AGENCY PRODUCING

If you’re a small agency that is built around creative leads or a large agency that is slammed and needs producer support stat, Brand Yew is here to take the load off. From multi-million dollar experience and commercial campaigns to 360 digital and social product campaigns, we have the experience to handle it all. We produce commercials (live-action and animated), AR/VR/XR experiences, websites, company rebrands, digital and social campaigns, and art pop-ups. Our comfort zone lies in the challenge.

NON - BIAS DIRECTOR SEARCH AND BALLPARKS

Agencies often come to Brand Yew to ballpark and handle director and studio searches for upcoming projects. Rather than have a producer from the agency spend hours upon hours of reaching out to reps and organizing reels, Brand Yew does it for them so the agency can focus on other tasks.

When it comes to ballparking costs, Brand Yew can put a price tag on a project within a few hours of looking at the creative. We also like to think that we specialize in finding special talent for the unique jobs out there that aren’t always so straightforward.

PRODUCTION SERVICE

We love to line produce. Split markups with us and outsource your internal productions to us keeping everything under the agency’s umbrella. Our experience in budgeting, crew management, and schedule breakdown to ensure your money is being spent effectively to bring the best production value in the shortest timeline.
