Our Story
Waken Creative Studio originally began as a video production group, Gentry Faith Films, specializing in deep-dive, ethical storytelling for organizations tackling complex social issues around the globe. While we still, in every sense, work on these projects, we now do more.
Learning that our partners needed more than just a video file and short-term guidance, we began to work with organizations on a monthly basis, monitoring market trends, analyzing audiences, crafting strategy, and creating cutting-edge creative content as an extension of in-house communications teams.
We are now expanding to accept new, curious, critically-thinking, creative partners with beautiful products and/or stories to tell.
Why Waken?
Brand Experts
With an immersed background in hands-on research, face-time with global communities, and communications expertise, we become experts on your brand, mission, and operations - as much as an in-house team would.
Quality Creative
With our in-depth knowledge of who you are as a brand, we create cutting-edge content that not only communicates your brand carefully, but catches eyes.
Budget-Friendly
We are for your mission, and we understand monetary constraints. So, we work to create beautiful content within lean budgets.
Easy Partners
Speaking of budgets, if partnering with us monthly, you get an expert team for a fraction of the cost of an in-house Communications position.
Hats Off
We’ve seen it over and over. The all-hands-on-deck, too-many-hats operations that let branding and communications slide. We take the burden off of Managers with too many hats, so that you can focus on what you want to focus on.
No Strings Attached
While we value true friendships with each partner, every contract is month-by-month. So you can always feel free to change your mind or your direction.
