FAQs

So, what kind of work do you focus on?

We focus on 30 second spots, longer-form brand films and documentary-style pieces. We are most interested in work that captures the essence of your product, service or brand. This can appear as TV ads, digital content, programmatic advertising, website promotional films or corporate and governmental service videos.

What kind of clients do you prefer?

The ideal client has both the confidence and vision to do something cool. They range from big publicly traded companies to start-ups, but overall we work with clients who are doing The Good Work and seek creative insights that can power their business.

Why do people choose ‘coast + jam’?

A fresh approach rooted in a proven process. We get under the hood of your business, ask the right questions, and identify possibilities you haven’t imagined. That means stripping away the noise and artifice to reveal something that resonates strongly and emotionally with your audience. We are small but mighty and easy to work with.

How much does it cost?

Every project is a different beast and ours range from $20K - $120K. We seek the intersection of what ‘should’ happen and what ‘can’ happen.

If you’re a startup and we love what you are doing, we can talk! We’ll review your product or service and if there is a fit, we would be open to exploring creative equity options.

We also do 1 project per year at cost for a non-profit or social venture we want to support. Reach out to us if you would like to be considered for this offering.

Can you work with my team or outside agencies?

Totally! We’re not precious or difficult and we’ve had success working with dedicated internal marketing departments or Clients own agencies or vendors. We bring our own take on a solution as we have a dedicated Insight & Action process we follow and we welcome collaborating with other creatives if there’s clear accountability in place.

Why are you based in Vancouver?

Vancouver, often referred to as ‘Hollywood North’ is home to some of the best creative, effects, and professional film talent in North America. If you are from outside our borders - the Canadian dollar compares very favourably against a host of currency units. We also really love it here.

Can I ask more questions?

Absolutely not. Just kidding - feel free to reach out and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can – we’d love to explore your project with you!
