ABOUT CRAYON BREAKER

FILMMAKING IS A TEAM SPORT

Our ability to articulate style, color, composition, decor have brought more than 500 TV commercials and branded projects to life around the world. We’ve developed a wheelhouse in comedy dialogue, improv, and visual storytelling as well as a solid instinct for casting and performance. Be it with actors, non-actors, kids, sports celebs and animals, we always pride ourselves in creating a safe space for all of our national and international projects.

We’ve worked on documentaries such as the award winning feature, Fish & Men, about the US fishing industry and our human relationship with the ocean. The film premiered in 2020 winning numerous Jury and Audience awards and continues to gain momentum. We worked to secure worldwide distribution and screening at conservation and academic institutions across the country as well as a broadcast deal with The Weather Channel.

Our commercial spots and narrative shorts have won Lions, Clios, CA Annuals, FWA, Tellys, Addys as well as a slew of comedy awards.
