Hack Studios

Hack Studios Hack Studios is a full service video production company, animation and post house based out of Austi If you have a creative itch, we can help you scratch it.

What Hack lacks in size, we gain in efficiency, personal attention and unbridled creativity. Because we collaborate with a large network of creative professionals around the country, Hack is vastly scaleable. We have the ability to tailor fit the needs of every client's project and can offer as much or as little as required. We're equipped to carry out every step of the process from concepting and

pre-production to execution (live action or animation) and finally post production and finishing. Here's a list of some common services we offer:

- broadcast media
- web videos
- music videos
- branding pieces
- short films
- documentary
- anything else you can think of

Hack opened it's doors in May of 2011 and is owned and operated by Dianna Colton, a 15 year veteran of the advertising and broadcast industries (most recently of Rebel Rebel). It is through her vision that Hack came into the fold and has enjoyed numerous early award-winning successes. The fundamental ideas and principles that became Hack Studios have always been to try and create a unpretentious yet sophisticated production company. We believe in honest communication, creating work we can stand behind and above all else creating work that our clients will be proud of. Our converted house studio creates a very cozy and welcoming environment, which is great for fostering creativity or just hanging out shootin' the breeze. We have a lot of fun making videos and we're proud of the work we're doing. Come hang out, the first beer's on us.

We had the pleasure of working with the amazing folks over at The Arthur Blank Center for Stuttering Education and Research on an animation series. This series explains their C.A.R.E. model.

This series was such a fun process for us. We started with the main pilot animation which was rotoscoped. Then for the supporting animations we drew frames and used ai programming to complete the animation. This was our first project combining classic animation and ai and we learned so much! Excited for this project and the future.

Take a moment to check them out… we’re super proud of the work we created.

All my Houston babes need to check this out! Tomorrow 11-3 there’s a self defense class happening with Bruce Lee Wayne. We participated last year and learned a ton.

Carolyn Thomas (The Woman Without a Face) runs the event through her non profit. It’s an excellent way to spend a Saturday and a good way to show support to domestic violence awareness month.

Not to mention Carolyn is the most inspiring woman I’ve ever met. More about her story soon.
