Cool. Just don’t be surprised when your competitors start outranking, outshining, and outselling you. Top brands aren’t hitting pause, they’re hitting record 🎥

VFX that feel real 👀

For Montecito Bank & Trust’s campaign, we didn’t just swap out screens, we carefully integrated branding elements using a mix of practical and digital effects. The goal? A polished, broadcast-ready ad that feels natural, clear, and true to the creative vision.

Watch our VFX artist work his magic in post.

From our cinematographer Chris Kas:

"Lighting diagrams are one of the best ways to communicate a lighting plan, and oftentimes we are racing the clock with limited resources, so having a roadmap helps unify the crew around a plan. This plan allows my gaffer and grip to be working simultaneously setting the lights for the scene, so we can spend our time on set collaborating to make the lighting more beautiful and more evocative, rather than focusing on the basics.

For this Mint and Lily shoot, we had one day to complete a variety of setups and a very limited crew. Given the parameters of the job I knew that having a lighting diagram for each setup prior to our shoot would make the whole day move smoother. Not only does it help communicate my idea, but while the crew is working it allows me the time and space with my director to discuss blocking, camera movement, etc.

Because at the end of the day it’s important to direct the crew towards a common goal, as early on in the process as possible. Having lighting diagrams allows everyone to get to work right away, creating efficiencies and elevating the entire production."

Small details, big impact 💪

Production doesn't stop when the camera turns off. Post-production is just as crucial as the shoot itself, especially when going the extra mile to make our client's products look good. Lure's Jonathan Blanton worked in post to add logos, fix blemishes, and even eliminate corrosion for Pelco, elevating the overall message and keeping the brand front and center.

Client: Pelco, Inc. & Motorola Solutions

Bringing stories to life is what we do best — and now the Davey Awards have shown some love to our small but mighty team 🏆✨

In our latest Soberlink campaign, we focused on stories of transformation. Daniel’s journey to rebuild trust and Evan’s fight to prove his sobriety are testaments to the impact of Soberlink’s technology.

With compelling visuals, candid interviews, and a focus on humanity, we turned personal challenges into powerful stories. As Samantha Gianetti, Marketing & Advertising Manager, said:

"Our clients, many of whom have sensitive and personal stories to share, always feel at ease, knowing they are in caring, capable hands."

We’re proud to help highlight these powerful voices 🫶

We joined the Hoosier Racing Tire team to create a product launch video for their first street-to-track tire: the Track Attack Pro. Working on an ultra-fast timeline, creative production and collaboration became key elements to making this project a success.

Thanks to this video launched ahead of The SEMA Show, Hoosier was able to build brand excitement, announce their newest product and debut a new look & feel that redefines their brand identity. Stoked to be a part of this new era for Hoosier.

Kelsey Cearnal ❤ Lure Digital

Introducing our 2024 limited release collab featuring designs by Kelsey Cearnal, tattoo artist and printmaker from Santa Barbara!

Kelsey was born and raised in Santa Barbara. She tattoos full-time at 805ink, specializing in American traditional tattoos. When not tattooing, she can usually be found painting or working on a woodblock print in the company of her husband and black lab. With an emphasis on traditional tattoo imagery and traditional printmaking techniques, Kelsey strives to create work that feels new and refreshed while maintaining a sense of familiarity and comfort.

Kelsey created this design for Lure to nod to film and production viewed through a Victorian lens. This image is inspired by the traditional and antiquated tattoo imagery that she is focused on. These collabs are meant to support local artists and we encourage you to visit Kelsey's profile and book an appointment at 805 Ink *now*

We're getting a lot of questions about how we produce some of our jobs with tight budgets and even tighter deadlines — enter "The 5 Golden Rules of Creative Producing" by Lure's own Jamie Connors.

"At the end of the day, creating content is hard work. It takes manpower, coordination, communication, and a whole lot of patience. But I love this job so much because of how hard the work is, not in spite of it." We love it, too!

"Creative producing” can mean saving money on a project, finding ways to make 1 location work for 3 and much more. Here's how to do it best!Jameson Connors

Big thanks to Dylan Wenzlau, Alex Yau and Emily von Weise for having us.
