ABOUT
IGNITING HUMANITY THROUGH STORYTELLING
Cash Studios is a creative studio & production company specializing in culture-defining creative work, igniting humanity through storytelling. We focus on high-concept, genre-bending, and emotionally resonant creative that deserves attention.
Our campaigns are media-agnostic, meaning the creative executions are informed by the idea—spanning film, digital, experiential and social.
We cultivate relationships with collaborators who are absurdly passionate and unwaveringly equitable, and with clients who are daring and collaborative.
We have a proven track record of award-winning and wildly ambitious original work that provokes and uplifts the human spirit. These projects go on to make history, elicit news coverage, museum collections, book deals, and more.
