Ticking Clock

Ticking Clock productions are timepieces; precisely crafted works geared to the moment and built to last. A boutique creative agency and full service film and digital media production company, Ticking Clock creates resonant campaigns, commercials, and films for all platforms. Our clients include some of the biggest names in food, travel, and entertainment.

The constant evolution of technology is exciting, and though it’s tempting to dive headfirst into each new trend, we think there’s a more balanced approach. That is our space: We are the modern classic, producing works of scale and substance with a respect for both current trends and traditional technique.

Our systems work, providing consistent growth and results for both us and our clients, but we have yet to reach our greater objective: Creating content on a level that changes how our industry functions – the successful formation of an agency and studio combined, an in-house experience that doesn’t suffer from too many cooks or too little expertise, but keeps projects perfectly on message and on time.
