About Sweet Lemon Inc.
Sweet Lemon Inc. is a boutique creative digital agency and commercial production studio based in Toronto, Canada. Founded in 2010 by filmmaker, director and cinematographer Lior Khananaev, the company originally operated as Sweet Lemon Productions. Its early work encompassed independent films, music videos and other cinematic projects before it expanded into advertising, branding and digital services.
That development brought film production, visual identity and website development into a single creative business. The company adopted its current name to reflect its broader scope, serving corporate clients, consumer brands, startups and local businesses. Its production work is concentrated in Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area, while its digital agency services extend across Canada and North America.
Commercial storytelling and production
The studio develops television-style commercials, product advertising, corporate profile videos and digital brand content. Its production services span concept development, scriptwriting, casting, storyboarding and location scouting through filming, visual effects, sound design and color grading. It also provides aerial cinematography, recorded virtual interviews and photography for products, corporate events, executives and teams.
Its portfolio includes the independent science-fiction feature Ecdysis, commercial work for consumer products and food businesses, promotional films for educational institutions, and corporate videos for renovation, manufacturing and financial services clients. These projects reflect the studio’s progression from narrative filmmaking into a wider commercial practice.
Branding and digital development
Alongside production, Sweet Lemon develops brand positioning, logos and visual style guides. Its marketing services include social media management, lead-generation campaigns and search engine optimization.
The web practice covers custom responsive website design, WordPress development, WooCommerce stores and ongoing maintenance. E-commerce work combines product presentation with the practical requirements of online purchasing. The studio serves businesses across markets including home improvement, luxury real estate, education, pet wellness, retail cannabis and consumer packaged goods, combining visual production with the branding and digital tools those clients require.
