Our work is built on a foundation of cultural intelligence, offering an 'Authenticity Premium' that ensures your narrative doesn't just reach an audience it resonates deeply and respectfully.

Listen (Whakarongo)
Every great creation begins with a call—your vision, your story. In Māori tradition,the Pūtātara (conch shell trumpet) sounds to announce an arrival and call people together. We honour this by treating your call as an invitation, turning the Pūtātara into an instrument of reception. For us, this reception is the art of deep listening. It is a foundational stage of deep consultation where we listen to your challenges, your audience, and the heart of your narrative. By ensuring we are fully aligned before the first line of code is written, we build the bedrock of our partnership.

Frequently Asked Questions

Still have questions? Feel free to get in touch with us today!
How do you approach working with Indigenous cultural content?
Our approach is founded on the principles of co-design and partnership. We adhere strictly to protocols of Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC), ensuring that Traditional Knowledge holders are respected, properly attributed, and have control over their cultural expressions. We are acutely aware of the risks of misrepresentation and cultural flattening posed by technologies like AI, and we work collaboratively to mitigate these risks and ensure authentic, respectful representation.
What is a FullDome experience like?
A FullDome experience is a shared, social immersive event. Unlike individual VR headsets, a dome projects a 360-degree image onto a large, curved surface, surrounding the audience. It creates a collective of presence and wonder, making it ideal for festivals, educational presentations, and brand activations.
How is AI used in your creative process?
We use AI as a collaborative tool to enhance, not replace, human creativity. It helps us in the early stages with script analysis and storyboarding, generates diverse options for advertising copy and visuals, and automates time-consuming post-production tasks. This allows our creative team to focus on higher-level narrative and artistic decisions.
What is your pricing model?
Our projects are priced based on scope and complexity. We work with clients on projects starting from a minimum engagement level to ensure we can dedicate the necessary resources for a high-quality outcome. We offer project-based pricing and can discuss retainer models for ongoing support and marketing. For a detailed quote, we recommend scheduling a discovery call.
