DEFTLY
LOUD
We Do Music. Photo. Video. Design. Experience. Geurilla. And More.
We constrain ourselves to working with people & brands of true passion.
Musicians. Indie Films. Passion Sports & Pursuits.
We're just 2 dudes who call ourselves a passion agency, and it's true. We specialize in highly stylistic & gritty productions that are approached both sonically & visually from the get-go. Because how many good pieces of creative die by stock music?
Before launching Deftly Loud, founder Riley Schindler was a director-level creative strategist & carries this backbone into every challenge. His co-founder & best bud Tyler Schuelke is our Director of Photography.
Oh.. and we're not bad at design either.
Currently, we operate a strategic playbook called 'The Groundswell Effect' focused on how cultural moments actually happen.
As far as our business & participation as a 'marketing agency', we constrain ourselves to working with people & brands of true passion.
In this world, daring to be a part of culture and not a business... that's pretty much the last punk rock thing left.

Artist Development Model
If the tune gives goosebumps, then it better be heard. We can help with that.
We also offer record deals without the suck, flipping the revenue model: 13% for us, 87% for the artist. We don't do advances, that's a loan anyway. But you don't need a budget. Just passion, and a willingness to love your underground phase, where the real ones get made. You get complete creative control. You own the masters.

Marketing & Creative Strategy
We believe that our favorite films of the next decade will be made by independent filmmakers & studios.
We created a suited model called 'The Groundswell Effect' that champions discovery, intrigue, protecting the cinematic experience (looking at you, trailer spoilers), and building experiential worlds around a film. Your movie might just be the next cultural moment, if it's good.
