PROCESS

#1 Briefing — Where it all starts: moments of anticipation and discovery.

#2 Strategy — A time of intensive research and planning, where everything is taken in consideration to develop strategy and prepare  creative concepts.

#3 Creation — The  design stage: every idea is valid and rules are broken and rewritten. An intensive, stressful and rewarding phase of the process, where you see ideas coming to life.

#4 Iteration — The moment of revelation, when ideas are presented, discussed, re-worked, tested, and show their bold creative substance.

#5 Production — Tested and approved, it is time for the work to leave the studio and show its strength "out there."
