About Us

Vladimir Jones is an integrated advertising and communications agency that exists to solve client problems. We are strategically precise. Creatively soulful. Culturally alert. Technically savvy.

 

Service Offerings

Insight

Insight has two responsibilities: to understand and to inspire. With a deft touch for understanding and weaving brands into cultural trends and context, our insight team represents the voice of the consumer. Acting as the catalyst for disruptive strategic thinking.

Creative

We create dazzlingly relevant, multichannel, culture-shaping ideas. Then we execute flawlessly. Never forgetting that brands, like people, need a soul. Not just a Facebook page. Although, sometimes, they need that too.

Brand Communications

PR is so much more than press releases and media pitches. We create media-agnostic ideas that permeate our culture across all possible channels. Including press releases and media pitches.

Media

Equally important as the message is the medium. Our media strategies are formulated with an intimate understanding of who we're talking to, and precisely what we're saying, delivering maximum engagement.

Interactive

We create and develop innovative technology solutions for real-world business problems. Using 1's and 0's to evoke analog emotions and tell brand stories, we engage audiences and surprise users across all platforms, devices and architectures.

Broadcast/Post-Production

Riposte, our in-house production company, is prepared to shoot, cut, score, mix, create original motion graphics and finish any project from a high-budget broadcast spot to an internal training video.

*What a whiner. They found the ear and sewed it back on. You wouldn't even notice it if his glasses weren't a little higher on the left than the right. Hey, Van Gogh! Two words: Lasik Surgery.

Circling Thoughts

This is the one place to find the ideas, trends, culture and cool swirling around the minds at Vladimir Jones. We invite you to circulate anything you find and help fuel the discussion.
