Kommune LA

Kommune LA is an ideation and creative content production studio based in Venice, Los Angeles. Established circa 2016, the boutique works across commercial advertising, immersive experiences and installations, combining storytelling with design, live-action production and technical execution. Its projects range from broadcast campaigns to architectural projections and interactive environments built around real-time information.

The studio collaborates with NoSlate Productions on creative development and production under the Kommune LA / NoSlate banner. Its capabilities span strategy, concept development, scripting, storyboarding and art direction through shooting, animation, visual effects, editorial and finishing. This combination supports work that moves between filmed content, motion graphics and physical spaces, with sound and interactive elements forming part of the experience.

Advertising and experiential work

A substantial part of the studio’s documented work comes from its multi-year collaboration with SAP. For SAPPHIRE NOW, Kommune LA and NoSlate developed immersive brand environments that translated enterprise technology and data into spatial experiences. These included the Leonardo Data Story installation in 2017 and The Cathedral, an interactive centerpiece film and spatial audio installation, in 2018.

Their 2019 NBA Ultimate Training Camp experience for SAP and Under Armour connected an interactive court environment with player tracking and data-driven content. The project appeared at SXSW and SAPPHIRE NOW, illustrating the studio’s work at the intersection of sports, brand storytelling and interactive engineering.

When physical events were disrupted during the COVID-19 pandemic, Kommune|NoSlate created, produced and finished SAP’s Dear Business campaign. The 60-second commercial aired in the United States, Germany and the United Kingdom during 2020–2021.

Other documented work includes architectural projection mapping for UCLA’s 2019 Centennial Celebration at Royce Hall, an interactive Manhattan data wall for SAP’s Executive Briefing Center at Hudson Yards, and visual effects and motion design for Samsung’s Galaxy S10 Beyond Unveil Film. Together, these projects reflect a practice spanning screen-based advertising, large-scale public presentation and responsive installations.
