About Silk Factory
Silk Factory is an independent creative content and entertainment marketing agency founded in 2017. Based in London with operating presences in Los Angeles and New York, it develops audio-visual advertising, key art and digital campaigns for film studios, television networks, streaming platforms and other entertainment businesses.
The agency brings creative strategy, editorial, design and finishing together within a comprehensive post-production offering. Its multidisciplinary team includes strategists, creative directors, editors, copywriters and motion designers, supporting campaigns from audience targeting and creative positioning through production and delivery. Work spans theatrical releases, episodic television, home entertainment, video games and cultural live-stream events.
Campaign development and production
Silk Factory creates theatrical and international trailers, teasers, television spots, social video cutdowns, sizzle reels, behind-the-scenes material and featurettes. Its design work includes main titles, 2D and 3D motion graphics, animation, visual effects and interactive or augmented-reality brand experiences.
