About
Leaders & Flares began in 2010 as a home for music videos, documentaries, and passion projects. What started as a place for independent work gradually grew into a production company creating films of all kinds.
Today, we collaborate with brands, agencies, and artists around the world, bringing the same curiosity and attention to every project. No matter the format, we’re interested in work that leaves a lasting impression.
