Creative Direction

Creative Direction

Creative Direction

We develop the central concept and visual point of view behind a project, defining how a brand, product, campaign, film, space, or experience should look, feel, and communicate.

This can include concept development, art direction, visual language, treatments, references, tone, atmosphere, and the broader creative direction that guides the work.

Integrated Campaign Concepts

We develop wider campaign and launch ideas that connect multiple expressions of the same central concept.

A project might combine film, campaign imagery, product presentation, retail, activations, events, and other brand moments into one coherent creative direction.

How We Work

We work directly with brands and alongside agencies, production companies, and specialist partners. Our role changes depending on the project, from originating the idea to joining an existing creative or production process.

We can originate the idea, lead the creative direction, join at a specific stage, or take a project through to final delivery.

Directly with Brands

01

We can work from an open brief, product, launch, or existing brand direction, developing the concept, defining the visual world, producing the content, and taking the project through to final delivery.

With Agencies

02

We collaborate with agencies on pitches and live projects, adding concept development, art direction, visual exploration, world-building, content creation, and production where additional creative depth or specialist execution is needed.

With Production Partners

03

We work alongside production companies and specialist teams on projects that require a wider range of disciplines. FIRST FRAME THEORY® can lead or support the visual direction while collaborating with the partners needed to realize larger or more complex ideas.

Based in Vienna and Los Angeles, we work across continents and time zones with clients and partners in Europe and the United States.
