It involves organizing, planning and the development of elements and characters in order to better tell our client’s story.

VNR’s are timely news packages or news features produced, filmed, edited and distributed as rough-cuts to news agencies and broadcasters around the world to repackage as their own material in their own broadcast styles with their own identifiers. We cover countries across the continent, even in hostile environments like Somalia.
These are either full-length or short videos with narration or some kind of commentary that are focused on a particular topic, agenda or messaging. They are produced for either broadcasters or online platforms and have a longer shelf life. They open up the creative process to story-telling and visual imagination.
Audience’s behavior toward traditional media (TV) and new media (Web) are different. The various platforms call for alteration in the creative process. Web Commercials on sites like YouTube target specific customers. TV ads are longer, aim for brand familiarity. Names, logos and jingles live long after the commercial has aired.
