Based in SF, Seedwell is one of the best built-for-viral, grassroots production companies I’ve met.
If you’re a marketer looking to produce a built-for-sharing brand video that taps into the zeitgeist of YouTube / internet geek culture, but willing to give a bit on production-value and let them run with your brand, these are your guys.
Not only have they produced some amazing brand-inspired viral YouTube sensations, they’ve just premiered their first feature film Salaam Dunk. Really inspiring stuff.
The founders — Peter Furia, David Fine, and Beau Lewis — are incredibly smart, humble guys who just “get it.”

ThinkModo is a brand viral video production company that’s recently hit a few “viral hoaxes” out of the park. I’m bullish on what’s next for these guys.

I love the team at Pereira & O’Dell.
Andrew O’Dell, PJ Pereira, and Josh Brandau are industry luminaries and great guys. Their media strategies are super-creative, and their creative executions are spot on.
