Everything is Temporary…

After 18 years in this vibrant creative community, we’ve made the difficult decision to begin winding down our operations. This was not a decision we came to lightly, but one we feel is necessary in light of the unprecedented changes affecting our space in the advertising industry.

Our operations will continue as usual until our targeted closure date of May 31, and we want to assure you that we remain fully committed to maintaining the quality and reliability of our services throughout this transition. Should you have any questions or concerns, we are here to help.

We are incredibly grateful for the partnership and trust of our clients and staff over the years. It has been our honor to work with you.

This news also means that some of the city’s most talented folks are soon to be available. If you have any needs or leads in the post world, please reach out.

From all of us at Volt Studios, thank you for being part of our journey.

Big thanks to Preston Spire for bringing us on board for this campaign. Special thanks to Ramble Pictures for teaming up with us on production! From there, we brought it all home with directing, CG, edit, color—and yep, the elephant in the room. (Don’t worry, he was surprisingly professional.)

Happy Thanksgiving! We are thankful for all our clients this year. Thank you for trusting us to help bring your ideas to life!

May you all need to loosen your belts before drifting off to sleep for a deep fried tryptophan nap. In the meantime, please enjoy this autumnal beauty we worked on with Fallon.

We all could use a Pup Talk sometimes! Thanks Fallon for letting us join forces with you. Ahh-wooooooo!!!

We were happy to work with Fallon on this campaign of encouragement by adding some starry pizazz to Meghan Trainor's already fabulous hair, in addition to finishing and color grade. Click the article to see the video of Meghan's Pup Talk from PAW Patrol, and learn how to send some encouragement to someone who could use a little.

PAW Patrol and Cameo Kids introduced “Pup Talk” on Friday (Nov. 15) with Meghan Trainor getting the first call.

Oh, boy, let us tell you about this Target spot—we got to “unleash” all our tricks! We had Pete Olson as the on-set VFX supervisor, we had CGI elevator doors, and more plates combining shots than you’d find in a three-star restaurant. Rig removal? We had that covered, along with a cleanup on aisle 8 and every other nook and cranny you could imagine. Stabilization? You bet. And don’t get us started on the CGI dog tag—it’s like the cherry on top of a very yummy sundae. The whole Volt collective worked their magic with color courtesy of Nice Shoes' Oscar Oboza, sound design by the genius SisterBoss, and we even had editor Carlos Lamas and the Target team in our edit suite. Believe us, with this spot, anything is paw-sible!

I have had an outpouring of messages from so many of you afte… Elizabeth McKenney needs your support for Support Lisa Mac McKenney’s Fight Against Parkinson's
