Twin directing duo, Adam and Nathan Freise, create stories that blur the line between imagination and reality. Their unique stylistic choices are grounded in their background in architecture and animation, disciplines which have influenced their true passion: filmmaking.
The brothers have made their mark, creating cinematic commercials and short brand films for more than ten years. Among other award-winning spots, their Tesla ad, Not a Dream, was featured on Treehugger and Adweek, and brought them an award at Cannes.
We have always been interested in stories that feel extremely tangible but don't seem quite of this time and place. We believe that mankind is here to create and that true creation takes vision, suffering and a bit of insanity. Without art, our purpose is lost, but with it, we are in control of the limits and meaning of our lives. This idea fuels the story of "One."
