WHO We are

Formed in 2002, Resolution Media is a crew of award winning (and, we like to think, pretty funny) people who love making content, across Australia, and beyond when needed.

We’re an end-to-end production house that scales to suit your budget, handling as much or as little of the process as you like. Titles don’t mean much here - we all pitch in, whether it’s sourcing a remote paddock for a drum kit shoot (true story) or hosting you in our Fitzroy studio.

From scripting to sound, and everything in between, we love bringing ideas to life in all shapes and forms. We work with some of the best in the biz (and yes, our on-set snacks have been rated 10/10). Want to see more? Give us a call - or better yet, drop by the studio.
