About
About
We have lots of know-how of the industry and its artists and - according to our clients - have great taste :-)
we are passionate, personal, flexible, creative, energetic.
In Dutch we have a saying: “klein maar fijn”. Which is a perfect way to describe our agency. We are a small female owned agency with a big network and a diverse client base. We make sure to get the client everything they need. Ymke as executive producer, Sophie as creative director. Together forming the perfect team to lead a team of creatives, big or small, handpicked for every project. No one fit for all kinda way, but tailored to the clients needs and budget.
This is our story from A to Z.
Art direction
Wether it is creating a concept from scratch, tweaking a clients idea or guarding the concept on set: we love to do art direction.
Boutique agency
We are a small, high end, creative production agency with a personal approach. Working in a tailored way on each project that best suits a clients needs and budget.
Creative matchmaking
