Northstra Studio
Strategy, media, and creative, planned and produced by one crew.
We plan the campaign and pick up the camera. One crew carries the idea from the first brief to the final file, so nothing gets lost in the handoff.
Every format, one production.
Stills, motion, and design captured together, so one shoot delivers the campaign, the product page, and the social cut.
Eight services, one studio.
Every service can be engaged on its own. Most clients use several, planned together so the strategy, the production, and the performance work share one brief.

How we think.
Points of view from our photographers, designers, and strategists.
Plan the shot list before the call sheet.
The most expensive hour of any shoot is the one spent deciding what to shoot. Every production starts with a shot list tied to where each image will run.
Consistency is a revenue strategy.
A brand system only pays if every asset follows it. We build the rules into the brief, the shot list, and the final files, so the brand looks the same on a billboard and a product page.
Shoot once, publish everywhere.
71% of marketers say videos between 30 seconds and two minutes work best. We plan those cuts before the shoot, so one production day covers every format.
Twelve disciplines.
Each led by specialists on our team, from the brief to the final retouch.
One creative lead. A full crew.
Every engagement has a creative lead who owns the idea from brief to delivery, and a crew built around the work.
