Political Campaign Video Production

TV spots, digital ads, and social content for candidates, ballot measures, and advocacy groups, with media buying and placement handled by the same team.

We have produced more than 70 campaign projects, from city council and state house races to U.S. Senate campaigns, ballot measures, and national advocacy groups. Past work includes spots for Pete Buttigieg, Catherine Cortez Masto, Veronica Escobar, Fentrice Driskell, and Carlos Guillermo Smith, plus campaigns with 76 Words, SEIU 1911, and Vet Voice Foundation.

Media Buying & Placement

Our campaign media buy team places your spots across broadcast, cable, digital, and streaming, so the people who made the ad make sure it reaches voters.

Built for Election Deadlines

Campaigns run on a calendar that does not move. Most campaigns book us 60 to 90 days before election day, and we plan backward from early voting, mail ballots, and debate dates. Scripts, shoots, and edits move at campaign speed, and we are ready to cut new versions when the race changes.

How a Campaign Shoot Runs

  • 01 Strategy CallTell us about the race, the district, the budget, and the deadline. We review your timeline and goals before we talk, so the first call is about a plan for your race.
  • 02 Script & CreativeWe write the scripts and messaging with your campaign team, then lock the shot list, talent, and locations for your sign off.
  • 03 Shoot DayStudio or on location with the candidate, real voters, and supporters. One shoot captures enough for every spot and cutdown in the plan.
  • 04 Edit & PlacementEdit, color, sound, disclaimers, and every version your media plan needs. Then our media team places the spots across broadcast, cable, digital, and streaming.

One Team From Script to Airtime

Most production companies hand you off to a media buyer, and most media buyers hand you off to an agency. We do not hand you off. Scripting, production, editing, social content, direct mail, and placement all happen in house, on your timeline.
