Meet the Business Owner

Bob S.

Business Owner

As founder and post creative director, Bob L. Smith has forged a creative presence that works through the team strategy model of placing all creative’s under one roof to collaborate and inspire their partners. After leaving SF in 1985 Bob sought after a new model of creative interaction. He wanted to throw out the old model of production and post by integrating all creatives from concept through finish in post. His desire was to forge new possibilities of engaging artists from the conception of the idea and influence from within, new directions to be considered long before the shooting begins.

Drawing from a huge talent pool in San Francisco and LA, Bob has found that living outside of the major markets but being wired in with all of the top creatives has allowed him to create a niche that set him, his music and his new approach to Post Production apart from the pack.
