Production With Creativity
Kontent Films is one of the Bay Area’s longest-established production companies. We’re trusted to deliver excellence. Always to seek best value. Never to finish a job unless it’s creatively spot on. In the past year we’ve produced big consumer campaigns for Meta, Kikkoman, and Cruise Vehicles. We made thought-provoking scientific films for UCSF, Adobe, Genentech and Myovant Sciences, and we’ve brought to life graphics-heavy explainer videos for Sutter Health, Zscaler and Uber.
At Kontent, we’re problem solvers. We use the creative process to enhance and over-deliver for our clients, assembling the right creative and production team to suit the project and scope. We’re agile, resourceful, and always curious.
Here are some pieces we’ve chosen to show how we’ve delivered for a wide range of purposes and platforms.
