From pre-pro, to production and post, we served as the end to end production company to create this campaign. ### Pelican Hill - A World Away Hospitality and Travel content has always been one of our favorite types of projects to work on. We really wanted to take this Forbes 5 star resort and spa's content to the next nevel by incorporating advanced filmmaking techniques like gimbals, jibs, underwater housings and a phantom slow motion camera to really elevate the brand. ### Essentia - "Made For" Campaign The Essentia Water 2 Gallon Box is a unique product that opens up the possibilities wide. We developed a campaign around three different ways the 2 Gallon Box can be used, in a high-movement, well-hydrated lifestyle. Since this was a new product type in the Essentia ecosystem, special emphasis was placed on the “character” of the box, it is a part of our lives in a way that embeds itself into our lives. ### Operation Underground Railroad - "It's Everywhere" Since being founded in December 2013, Operation Underground Railroad has gathered the world’s experts in extraction operations and in anti-child trafficking efforts to bring an end to child slavery. Working with their team, we created a piece called “It’s Everywhere,” highlighting the fact that sex trafficking can happen to anyone, anywhere. Our team worked diligently to bring empathy and sincerity to this piece, while maintaining the seriousness and danger that kids around the world are in. ### Hollandia - Farm to Table Campaign Hollandia Dairy is a ton of fun: fun people, fun product, fun locations, fun cows! When the team at Hollandia talked about wanting a high energy, highly engaging piece to capture the viewers attention, we knew exactly what to do. Being a local San Diego California dairy, Hollandia cares a lot about their community and providing the freshest product they can to the state. From the farm, to the plant, to bottling, to distribution, to schools and homes, to enjoyment, we captured each part of the process and shared it in a fun way. ### Reign Energy - "Fuel Your Reign" Campaign Working closely with Vitro Agency, we created a high energy campaign for Reign Energy. The marketing historically at Reign has been heavily geared towards people who “live” in the gym, leaning into the gym lifestyle to promote their drink. Our approach expanded Reign’s audience, featuring a DJ, an Athlete (featuring Teófimo López), and a Gamer. The concept revolved around high active people, using Reign between their “daily life” and their “active life.” We created many parallels between our characters and the branding Reign has become known for, making sure we featured workouts within our three storylines. The campaign was a hit and attracted the strategized attention the agency was looking for. ### Verizon Connect - AI Dashcam Robot Camera Arms, U Crane Porsche camera cars, FPV drones, we pulled out all the stops to create an engaging campign for Verizon Connects new A.I. dashcam for fleet managementVerizon's AI Dashcam alerts drivers in real time to help reduce accidents and transform fleet safety. Take control of fleet safety to help prevent accidents. Automatically play audible in-cab alerts in real time for drivers who are distracted, and review road- and driver-facing camera footage side by side. ### Living Proof - "Make Time For" Dry Shampoo Campaign Living Proof provides a smarter solution for beautiful, healthy looking hair so we partnered to create a campaign that shared the relatable benefits of their successful Dry Shampoo line. We told three stories of women who are using the dry shampoo for three unique reasons: to quickly remove sweat, to quickly remove scents, and to quickly get ready with a house full of kids. The strategies for the film and full photographic campaign were to be used across the internet, in social media, on e-commerce platforms, and in retail (Sephora).   See full campaign here:http://www.maneco.co/portfolio/living-proof-make-time-for/ ### Uncover Ojai Ojai Valley Inn is a five-star resort in one of the most healing places on the planet, Ojai, California. Together, we set out to capture the healing, atmospheric, one-of-a-kind energy, in a full video and photographic campaign. Specific strategies include multiple social media campaigns, email marketing campaigns, in-room and on-site multimedia moments, and fundraising opportunities. See Full Campaign Here: http://www.maneco.co/portfolio/uncover-ojai/ ### HOURGLASS // GET THE LOOK Campaign We were tasked by HOURGLASS COSMETICS to create a series of high production value instructional videos for their website and social media platforms. These videos were not only to help instruct and educate followers but also needed to help elevate the Hourglass Brand.  ### Hotel Nikko // Travel to a Different Place We were tasked for creating a commercial highlighting Hotel Nikko and the many advantages of the property, the location, the amenities, and the staff. There are lots of cliche ways to create a film that accomplishes what we needed to accomplish, but we set out to find a fresh perspective. By honing a story around the hotel, where the characters experience every element of the property within the narrative, we were able to share the experience of Hotel Nikko in subtle and effective ways, such as showing our hero walk to Union Square to show that Union Square is a walkable distance from the hotel.

So how do you market Preferred Hotels as a whole? The solution we came up with was to create a campaign that told the stories of traveling guests, highlighting WHY they travel and WHY they prefer Preferred Hotels & Resorts as their go-to. We created 3 different commercial spots: a couple who travels for the culinary experience, a French solo traveler, and a couple who seeks adventure. Using these 3 stories, we told the story of Preferred Hotels & Resorts: there is a unique experience perfect for everyone.

We partnered with him to create a video announcing his college commitment to Clemson University. The “commitment announcement” has become a must-have for high school athletes, sharing their commitments on their social media accounts to their fans. For DJ, we wanted to go above and beyond to set him up for viral buzz as the entire high school and NCAA football community has been waiting anxiously to hear his decision. See full campaign here: http://www.maneco.co/portfolio/dj/ ### Ladder // Rituals over Resolution Working with Another, we helped create a video for the newly launched brand Ladder. A subscription-based supplement brand boasting Arnold Schwarzenegger and LeBron James as it's founders.   ### Nike // Sportwear Campaign Working with Matte Black, we created a series of films that would introduce Nike’s new Sport Pack Collection. Six artists were asked to redesign the classic Nike Sportswear logo with their own aesthetic. Our film pieces dive into their process as well as highlight the new apparel. The video assets were released in a staggered manner throughout various social media platforms, spreading wide to the millions of followers gathered by the six artists and of course Nike, Nike Sportwear, and LA Nike.

Fight Camp came to Mane Co to create a New Year Campaign of inspirational videos to release on social media platforms that showcase the product. "Year of the Fighter" is one of the videos in the campaign that was released across social media platforms and ad space.  ### Project with Apple ### Project with Facebook ### Project with LG ### Project with Starbucks ### Project with Verizon ### Clutch Awards - [Clutch Award Badge](https://shareables-prod-static.clutch.co/badges/top_clutch.co_commercial_production_company_los_angeles_2026.svg) - [Clutch Award Badge](https://shareables-prod-static.clutch.co/badges/top_clutch.co_documentary_production_company_los_angeles_2026.svg) - [Clutch Award Badge](https://shareables-prod-static.clutch.co/badges/top_clutch.co_training_video_company_los_angeles_2026.svg) ### Industry Recognitions - Dustin Laemmlen of Mane Co on Clemson Podcast - Viral Commitment Video picks up press recognition - Top 20 Film Production Companies for Business 2023 - Emmy Nomination for Into The Spotlight Documentary ## Key Clients - Apple ## Packages ## Locations (2) ### San Clemente, CA (Headquarters) - 320 Avenida Del Mar - San Clemente, CA 92672 - United States - 6 - 9 employees - Phone: 424-259-1663 ### Los Angeles, CA - 930 E 6th St - Los Angeles, CA 90021 - United States - 6 - 9 employees - Phone: 4242591663 ## Contact Mane Co [Send a message](https://clutch.co/profile/mane-co) ### Connect on Social - [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/mane-co-agency/?viewAsMember=true) - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/manecoagency/)
