Ian Douglass is a filmmaker based in Culver City, California, who has always believed, that small creative teams are best suited to service the content creation needs of studio, network, and interactive clients.
He started out at LA advertising company, Ogilvy and Mather, working for free as a print production artist to secure a spot on the studio floor. From print came an interest in motion design. Leaving O&M, Ian became what was then called a 'motion graphics artist'. Several years of double shifting and sleeping under desks led to his current role as creative director.
One of his proudest accomplishments was founding Culver City's creative studio, HOS. As partner and creative director, he's been lucky to enjoy working with clients like Fox, CBS/Paramount, NBC/Universal, DirecTV, NFL Network, Scott Free, and more. Very importantly, his vision of a small, family style studio has been realized.
In his free time as a rookie parent, Ian enjoys spending time with his family. After that, there's surfing, photography, and writing and recording music. He divides his time between Los Angeles and Costa Rica.
Jason Baffa has been involved in the Arts for over 30 years. He received his first super 8mm camera at age seven and chose an early career path towards film and television production. Through his teen years he built Jason Baffa Films, which at the time, was producing sports highlight videos for athletes looking to procure Collegiate Scholarships.
Baffa trained at Todd A-O Sound, the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA and at the Universidad de San Luis in Madrid, Spain. He holds a BFA in Film Production from Loyola Marymount University of Los Angeles, CA.
Baffa’s recent focus has been on developing new theatrical projects and evolving Jason Baffa Films as a client based production house. His work as both director, cinematographer and editor encompass various globe-trotting projects including work for Patagonia Clothing, Ford, Bear Naked Granola, Oakley, Fox Sports, Miramax Studios, Pabst Brewing, Pacifico Beer and a new documentary film for Barefoot Wine.
