VAM STUDIO is an award winning, full service production company and film collective behind some of the most disruptive narratives, commercials and branded content in culture today. The VAM team is comprised of an unapologetic diverse team of filmmakers working from a variety of backgrounds, perspectives and disciplines while standing out on a global scale.
Part of what makes VAM unique is our collective-based approach to art-making. So much of our work derives from community practices, as well as creating a collaborative working environment. The majority of our productions are ran by queer people and people of color and we believe that representation should be found both in front and behind the cameras. Tonally, we work from anywhere between the comedic sphere to the dramatic space and are never afraid to dream big. We straddle the line between art-house and convention in an authentic and community-led way.
Our work is expansive and has been the staple of the Chicago, New York and Los Angeles underground scenes for nearly a decade.Our productions have been nominated for Emmys, Webbys, Streamys, and Queertie Awards and has streamed at festivals across the globe, including winning the Bushwick Film Festival Programmer's Choice Award as well as selected Vimeo’s staff picks.
VAM has worked with commercial brands such as Apple, Nike, Dr. Martens, Redbull, Verano, and Airbnb as well as National and Global Foundations such as MacArthur, Richard Driehaus and AIDS Foundations. VAM has also produced music videos for artists like Jamila Woods, Madison McFerrin, Chance The Rapper and Esperanza Spalding. VAM's work has been profiled in Vogue, Time Magazine, Elle, Rolling Stone, New York Times, Tribune, Out Magazine, Pitchfork, Paper Magazine, Advocate, and NPR.
