Putting the South Florida Rap and Hip Hop scene on the map!

We have studio locations all over the world, from Los Angeles, New York City, Washington, D.C., London and Fort Lauderdale. Our main headquarters is our Fort Lauderdale office so we have a deep bond with artists in the area. Whenever we aren’t working on projects for our clients, we are doing whatever we can to help other artists build up an audience. Freestyle Friday is one of these intitiatives.

So far, we have worked with some of the best South Florida rappers, like Sam Stan. In fact, Sam Stan was recently a guest on #UNCREATIVERadio talking about the release of his new album, Happy Campers. You should definitely check it out!

Putting the South Florida rap scene on the map!

We are passionate about helping other artists wherever we can. Since our headquarters is in Fort Lauderdale, we focus a lot of our attention on South Florida artists–musicians, models, poets, and creative entrepreneurs (to name a few). Freestyle Friday is our way of giving South Florida rappers a stage to share their talents and establish South Florida rap music as an elite micro-genre.

We feel it’s important to give artists a place to grow their audience; to market themselves beyond the scope of their network. In fact, that is literally what #UNCREATIVE is all about! If you’ve never checked out our blog, you’re missing out. There is a ton of awesome content to inspire your craft.

Introducing Your New Host of Respek the Mic!

Introducing Your New Host of Respek the Mic!

Introducing Devonte (a.k.a Marnino Toussaint of the Arts Prevails Program), your new host of Respek the Mic!

 

I usually craft my own introduction when announcing a new host for Respek the Mic. But, if I am being honest, I don’t have the right to chime in here. Devonte’s poem has too much feeling; too much sadness; too much truth; too much despair; too much pride; too much passion; too much shame, warmth and compassion… I think I’ll just keep my mouth shut and let Devonte tell it how it is.

A Live Performance of “Love Jones” at Artwalk

We were the original pioneers of the first Fort Lauderdale artwalk. You know, the one in FATVillage. We established this event because we wanted an outlet where we could show the community what we do when we aren’t working with clients. Every month, we create cool exhibits centered around art, technology, and good friends. Some of the exhibits are designed for the community to participate, like C&I Storm, while others are for their entertainment, like this performance by Sabela.

Most people think we only do client work. But that isn’t the case. Not at all. We are constantly doing our own thing; making cool art to enlightment our generation. There aren’t many agencies creating the type of content we release every week. For instance, we have a series called Dailies, which we release Mon-Fri, that shows exactly what life inside the studio is like. There’s no sugar coating. It’s just us… beautiful, unedited, unscripted Us. If you like this video, you should check it out.

Make good art… and share it too.

If you can’t invite your peers to appreciate something you made — something you believe is beautiful — then you’re missing out on an invaluable connection.

That’s one of the reasons we helped establish Artwalk 10 years ago.

For a short time, though, it felt like we were losing out. Artwalk seemed detached. It was lacking a certain emotion — a degree of thoughtfulness that has always been trademark to what we do at C&I.

Fashion shows, live hair cutting performances…they’re good entertainment, but they just aren’t exactly who we are. 

So we reconnected with Artwalk... and you.C&I Storm was a resurgence of sorts — the return of live, interactive displays that express how our creative identities are connected to our community.

We put our vulnerabilities out there for everyone to see.

If you attended C&I Storm, you may have noticed that the centerpiece was a whirlwind of handwritten notes from our personal journals. Combine that fidelity with the openness of drawing and writing in front of a crowd…well, by the end of the night we had all shed a few layers of apprehension.

The coolest part of the night, though, was that our vulnerability was contagious. While we were changing roles, you all took to the drawing board to share your crafts, your thoughts, and your reflection of the night as it was still forming. It was awesome.

In one night, we had made up for so much lost time. It felt really good. Familiar even. We could tell you all enjoyed it too. 🙂

C&I Storm was just the beginning.

C&I Storm was just the beginning.

We had to take Artwalk back by storm to continue along this path of making good art and sharing it too.

So, we’ll see you at the next FATVillage Artwalk on July 28. This month Self-Projection will test your imagination and challenge the depth of your interpretation with living, breathing optical illusions created live. 

Original Photography vs. Stock Imagery

Original Photography vs. Stock Imagery

Original Photography for Visbiome Vet of a dog for High Potency Pet Probiotics.

We shoot original photography because we take pride in our work

Using stock photography for a branding campaign is like using cliff notes. They’re cheap. They’re boring. And they devalue the integrity of the content.

Sure they sum up the message, but the fact that a marketing agency would even want to “sum up” their client’s brand is odd enough. They’re easy substitutes for good work. And easy is bad.

We strongly discourage taking such a shallow approach. Aside from the fact that stock photography is unoriginal… it’s boring. Way too boring for us to have any part in, at least. Stock imagery is just a generic approach to an idea or project.

Creativity will always have a place at C&I Studios

Like Leo Burnet said, “Curiosity about life in all its aspects, I think, is still the secret of great creative people.”

Couldn’t have said it any better. It’s true, too. Why would we cut our experiences short by eliminating creative vision?

Short answer: we don’t.

Take our recent branding campaign for Visbiome Vet – High Potency Pet Probiotics. This is a really unique frontier, and Visbiome is essentially pioneering this new industry. They’re disrupting standards on pet health in a really positive way.

We felt their branding campaign should do the same. So, we shot original photography to create a unique brand persona for their new line of pet probiotics. Our approach was designed to distance Visbiome Vet from the competitors, just as their product has.

Why?

In certain industries, it is common practice to use stock imagery. It’s an immediate placeholder, and saves a lot of time, money and resources. But really, it’s a substitute for hard work, and original ideas.

It’s an easy, lazy way of branding a product. We repeat, it’s boring!

The medical industry is one of the more obvious examples of this approach. The pet industry is also devalued by rampant stock imagery.

Visbiome Vet — High Potency Pet Probiotics is a combination of the two industries: pets and medicine.

We had our work cut out for us.

Original Photography closeup for Visbiome Vet of a dog laying down for High Potency Pet Probiotics.

The Challenge

We needed to create original imagery that would be the face of this medical food for quite some time. When your product is lined up with 20 others on a store shelf this is really important.

Our challenge was positioning Visbiome Vet as the more advanced, effective solution to pet health. We needed to position their brand above the competitors in a way that was still approachable to consumers, while highlighting their primary brand standards.

So we did some hunting until we found the right pup. Let’s call him Rex.

Rex was unique. From the pattern of his coat, to his personality, to the color of his eyes. He was also very smart so we were able to take a lot of really unique photos for their new campaign. There was no way the competition could replicate the same feels.

And as it would turn out, they didn’t.

When Visbiome Vet showcased their new brand of pet probiotics at a trade fair that was attended by basically all of their competitors, they were the ONLY business with original imagery.

Every other competitor used stock photography (some even used the same stock photo!). It was a big win for their brand. And pretty funny for our team of professional photographers to witness.

The Results

The trade fair was a big success for Visbiome Vet.

Their original branding showed consumers that their product was, well, unique.

More importantly, it proved they truly cared about their business, and wanted to offer the consumer an experience that the competition couldn’t match.

In today’s age of rapid, cluttered content it is so important to invest in quality work. Your brand should never compromise on stock imagery because there is no way it will properly capture your brand’s intentions.

Check out our portfolio to see how we can elevate your brand with some cool, original photography.

We’re Hosting | South Florida Event Planning

We're Hosting | South Florida Event Planning

Event planning in C&I Studios with various sets set up.

Event Planning - C&I Meets A2 Events

Community engagement through event planning has become a cornerstone of the C&I Studios experience. That’s one of the reasons we partnered with A2 Events. Our relationships with neighboring businesses, and our bond with the artists and people who come alongside us to further our shared mission is one of our strongest connections to the community.

When we first started this company we knew that the community would keep us honest. And that that connection would always bring us back to reality to keep us grounded. Together with A2 Events, we are able to support and reward our neighbors with cool experiences, like never before.

When we originally opened our doors in FATVillage, we recognized that Fort Lauderdale deserved art and technological districts that branch from Las Olas Boulevard. So we started hosting community-wide events, like the FATVillage Artwalk. And also offered our studio space to be enjoyed by others. But that wasn’t enough.

Events with Purpose

As our community-wide outreach became more ingrained in our brand, so did the importance that C&I Studios become a venue. It would be pointless for our studio space to exist exclusively for us. So we decided to extend our home for everyone in Fort Lauderdale to enjoy.

Our events are becoming a standard in the community, but maintaining the status quo isn’t really our style. We don’t settle. We strive to push beyond what’s expected of us, because that is what an Idea Agency is purposed to do. If we do not inspire our neighbors to think towards the future then we are not doing our part to better the community. And if we are not bettering the community, we are failing ourselves. 

With A2 Events in the equation, we are starting to make the impact we set out to accomplish. With their expertise in event planning we are now able to develop and consistently support the innovative nature of FATVillage as a multifunctional hub of art and culture in Fort Lauderdale. Better yet, we’re able to regularly offer our studio space to companies and artists who want to join in that mission, just as A2 Events has.

Erin Branham, President of A2 Events

With Erin Branham and her team we continue to orchestrate some of the coolest events in Fort Lauderdale. Her ability to cater to brand-crafted experiences that reflect the marketing goals of each client, from the fine details to the overall message, makes her a great fit here.

Our brand pillars are solidifying on multiple levels, too. From our focus towards influencing and shaping the future development of South Florida, especially Fort Lauderdale, to the way we style and maintain a boutique image. Erin said it best, “We want to be lean and able to adapt to our client’s needs. But also good at developing our employees, and flexible in our work environment.”

A2 Events President Erin Branham and Joe talking about A2 Event planning.

The Big Picture

Take our most recent Taco Tuesday Town Hall event with Big Picture Broward, for instance. We invited our community and city commissioners to take part in an open forum discussion. Together, over free tacos and beer, we had a great political discussion about guiding the future development of Fort Lauderdale. And thanks to Erin Branham, and A2 Events, we made it so the logistics ran smoothly.

A2 Events has really helped us heighten our mission. There’s still a lot that we have to do if we’re going to change the artistic landscape of Fort Lauderdale and FATVillage. But with their involvement we’re seeing progress every week. So, whether you’re joining us for FATVillage Artwalk, First Friday, Culture Club, or taking over our studio space for a company event, know that you’re playing a direct role in creating a new, true downtown.

Next Door | Bay Doors

Next Door | Bay Doors

Here’s What’s New Next Door

We’re always finding ways to improve Next Door, and Brew Urban Café, to make our guests more comfortable. We want you to feel right at home. And Next Door is essentially an extension of our home.

For our latest project, we installed sweet glass bay doors by the railroad tracks at Brew Urban Café. We’re pumped about improving the setting with natural light. Not to mention, these new doors will keep you safe (which is actually reason #1).

Bay Doors All Day

So, we supplied Brew Urban Café with some natural light.

It used to be like this: you’d immediately be removed from the city once you walked in. You’d arrive in a cozy den surrounded by books. Sometimes the garage door would be open, and the sun would be shining in. Other days they just couldn’t be open. For those non-Floridians out there, just know that regardless of what the radar shows it will randomly rain at least 20 minutes a day.

So, depending on the weather, you’d either be soaking up some vitamin-D sipping on a cup of cold brew. Or listening to the rumbling of the railroad tracks behind closed garage doors. Moral of the story is, your mood will no longer be subject to the bipolar Florida elements.

Steady Improvements

We also wanted to improve our space without taking away from the familiarity of Brew.

Our General Manager, Joseph Miller, said it best: “Bringing the best parts of the outdoors inside is one of the reasons Brew is so unique.” Emphasis on “best parts of the outside.”

All of these reasons are cool, and all, but the best improvement will be that we keep our guests safe night and day. Read between the lines, now you never have to leave. ?

Our City: Shooting at Fort Lauderdale Airport

Our City: Shooting at Fort Lauderdale Airport

We’ve been asking ourselves… what exactly will it take?

On Friday, the airport we frequent on average more than once a week, made us the most recent city to become a #pray for hashtag.  Five people were killed, six seriously injured, and countless people went through an unthinkably tragic trauma.

We have opinions–strong ones–about gun violence.  We believe that there are ways to mitigate the sheer volume of gun related deaths in our country.  We believe that innocent people should not be senselessly mowed down when waiting for their bags at the carousel.  We believe that some of this can be prevented.

We don’t believe that this is going to go away (evil people will do evil things with whatever resources they have available). We don’t believe that everyone should turn in their guns (It’s called gun control, not gun elimination).  And we don’t believe that it’s easy to change anyone’s minds as it pertains to the second amendment.

But we’d like to talk about it.  We have charts that we’ve studied, we have read the actual second amendment, from “well regulated” to “not be infringed”.  We understand the argument from a federal power vs. states rights viewpoint.  The fact of the matter is that some states make it easier to purchase an AK-47 than it is to own a dog or sell milk.  That seems silly to us.

There are thousands of articles out there like this. Thousands of people spouting off these facts, and displaying these charts, and listing these victims, and pointing towards these petitions, and giving these Congressional email addresses.

But right now, we want to open a discussion.  Because we would rather there be a conversation than a one-sided diatribe.

If you are against strict federal gun control laws: Why do you feel that gun ownership should have a wide window of minimum requirements?  What happens during a firearm purchase in Louisiana is vastly different than what happens in California.

On a personal level, if you own a firearm, why? Do you think it should be easy to own one?


After 9/11, the federal government formed the TSA.  And yeah, it has caused headaches for all of us, but we are all behind it, because we believe it makes us safer.  So… what will it take for us to all get behind more thorough federal regulations of gun ownership?  If tragedy after tragedy in movie theaters, universities, grocery stores, nightclubs, churches don’t do it… If 20 first-graders don’t do it… What is going to do it?

What is C&I?

What is C&I?

So what is C&I?

C&I is a combination of fresh, incredible ideas, the perfect team—who fears no project or deadline, and a little bit of magic.

It is tough to describe what C&I means to us, because it’s more than a company. Being able to help business owners and corporations accomplish a marketing goal through storytelling is an incredible feeling, and we are addicted to seeing these campaigns work.

What we do is hard to replicate. You can’t hire an internal marketing team and achieve the same goal. We have the outside view, the outside opinion, the fresh perspective. We are thinking not only about our clients, but how our clients can be successful every single day. What we do at C&I is more than just a job to us. We were made to create, and we bring that passion to every single project that we work on. We package our creativity with compelling research and statistics to accomplish any goal.

The secret sauce of our company is its people. A team of selfless workaholics that aren’t satisfied with just being good. When we step up to the plate with every client, we never want a base hit, we want to throw our bat on the ground and watch the ball fly into the stands. We aren’t the middlemen, either. We are the men, we are the women, and we know how to take an idea straight out of thin air and technically execute it right in front of you.

We aren’t creatives, we are professionals. Creatives need to be inspired to take action. Professionals are so good, that they need to no inspiration to act.

These words have only tried to scratch the surface of what C&I is. Watch this video, and you’ll see what we mean.

For the Love Music Festival

For the Love is a true example of what happens when you manifest the hell out of your visions and dreams. C&I Studios and ExposedPR came together for a project that encompassed the love they cultivate for their community in a way that allowed everyone interested the ability to participate.

For the Love was built brick-by-brick and with the help of great and innovative sponsors. Over 30 bands played the festival and the provided Ft Lauderdale with the means to celebrate life, music, and our city; For the Love became a staple moment that was shared with everyone.

Slow-Mo Sunday:
Volley Ball @ Fort Lauderdale Beach

This is a short clip part of a an initiative we took to film more. The best way to get better at anything is to practice, and since we’re always influenced and inspired by what most might pass of as mundane, we figured we could highlight parts of South Florida’s day-to-day in a mini-series we’re calling Slow-Mo Sundays.

The idea is to revel in activities we would otherwise overlook and really capture the beauty of movement, texture, color, and time. This is a shot we picked up while at Fort Lauderdale beach of some locals enjoying a quick pick-up game of volleyball.

Brandon Dymon Baker Beard Project

Brandon Dymon Baker Beard Project

Brandon is easily one of the most talked about C&I crew members. Not because he’s cool or anything…his beard is just considered the studio mascot and the topic of many late night chats. So, it was only right that we kicked off the Beard Project during Art Walk with the dopest beard this side of the Mississippi.

Brandon’s story highlights his most fond memories of a girl — Sasha Tjo — who ultimately was the reason why he decided to embark on a journey to growing his epic beard.

While filming, we stopped by Dennis J’s Barbershop; a local spot Brandon got to visit for the first time and will perhaps be coined as the secret remedy to his super-soft-must-touch-make-girls-swoon beard.

Franco hooked it up, so do yourself a favor and book him.

Selfie-ish: An Art Showcase
by Rasberry + Vasquez

Artist Sierra Raspberry hosted an art show for a collaborative effort with her boyfriend. They’re calling the show Selfie-ish. The message inspiring their work comes from the observation that our society has been pointed in a direction that glorifies self obsession and vanity through our social media vehicles.

The show as a whole was looking to shine a light onto that particular facet of our cultural personality that wasn’t present in our lives as short as fifteen years ago. By way of paint on canvas, Sierra wanted to display the phenomenon in a positive light and as part of our natural evolution as human beings.

We shot the first short video to tease the opening of The Garden. It shows us prepping it for the public.  We put our soul, sweat, and tears into it. The second video covers the Art Walk of April 26th 2014 when we unveiled our new space to to the world.

The Garden is an outdoor space that is perfect for any number of events, with a 100ft wide projection wall, murals done by local artists, and a 10 foot Bar in the center. It’s also now home to our brand new recording studio “The Barn”.

We are so proud of this space and we’re thrilled to be able to share this with the community. Meet us at The Garden.

Before I Die: Hot Air Balloon Ride

Dominique and Jonathon had a dream of going on a hot air balloon ride. They had attempted it before and the situation didn’t turn out in their favor. We hosted an Art Walk a few years back entitled “Before I Die” earlier that year with the goal of helping people’s wildest dreams come true.

As luck would have it, when it came time to choose which of the contestants had won, we pulled out  Dominique and Jonathon’s dream to take a ride on a hot air balloon. We got together and helped the couple pursue their dream, documenting the adventure from start to finish. This is the video of the adventure.

Next Door @ C&I Grand Opening

Next Door was born of wanting a place so specific we had to build it ourselves. We wanted a place that felt timeless with a lining that was obviously modern.

We wanted it to be haven that took you to a place that felt unlike anywhere else. This video was made to rile up the people we love and show them what our  hard work and dedication created: our Next Door space and Brew Urban cafeé premier coffee shop.

Our grand opening was a huge success. A ton of people showed up to check out our new spot and gave us more love and support than we knew what to do with.

Come visit us at Next Door, we’ll have a cup o’ joe for you, and you can even read a few pages of that Neruda book you’ve been procrastinating to read.
