02 / Studio
Durban's full-service video production studio.
We’re based in Durban and we shoot across KZN — Umhlanga, Ballito, Pietermaritzburg, Amanzimtoti — and travel nationally for the right brief. Our team carries broadcast-grade camera, lighting, sound and aerial kit, and our post-production suite handles everything from rough cut to colour-grade and final mastering.
For brands, that means one studio handling the full production chain. For agencies, it means a production partner that plugs into your creative team without friction.
