Surprisingly effortless content

Chuck & Charlie is a creative content agency based in Southern California that specializes in visual storytelling including short-form video content, commercials, and marketing promos for all platforms.

We are content creators for a modern audience with a short attention span. We are producers, directors, and editors. We are photographers, animators, and motion graphic designers. We are musicians and sound designers. We have the experience of a large agency, with the creative tenacity of a teenager in his mom's basement.

Chuck & Charlie was founded by two experiences creatives who crossed paths on the other side of the world where they discovered they worked well together and were surprised to realize they share the same middle name.

What are the odds?

"The guys at Chuck & Charlie have been doing this a long time. They just get it. I know I’m going to get a first-rate product without any babysitting." Conrad Ketchie

"One of our events had to be rescheduled, so we needed to change the date on a dozen promos. I called Chuck & Charlie that Friday evening, and by the following morning they had the final revised assets in our hands!" Ryan Snyder
