WORK BIO
Meet Marketa (33) and Magdalena (30), a duo from the Czech Republic who turn their passion for visual art into videos and photos. Marketa, the photographer/director behind the operation, comes up with ideas and plans for projects, and she's a pro at keeping things organized. Magdalena, on the other hand, works her magic behind the camera and in the editing room, bringing the videos to life.
Their journey began with online video projects for Skoda Auto and T-Mobile CZ in 2015 while still in universities, when Instagram’s potential for companies/brands started to be a topic for vast discussion. In 2017, they leaped to work on videos and photos full-time. The following year, they teamed up with Nikon Central Europe, even making waves in Tokyo. They got their first opportunities to create music videos - from Czech bands like Lake Malawi and Vesna (both bands representing the Czech Republic at Eurovision in 2019 and 2023) to their first international music videos - Baynk (NZ) or Laxcity (UK) while their work was being played at MTV Australia and New Zealand. They also worked with Nikon Europe, diving into winter campaign visuals and traveling through Denmark.
More recently, they've explored tourism projects and nature documentaries in Germany and Ireland, showcasing their versatility. They're all about flexibility and focus more on their skills than heavy equipment, making them a true run-and-gun team. Their passion and creativity drive them forward, making each project unique. Their first documentary debut was released in March 2024, a short film from the Himalayas created together with NatGeo photographer/scientist Petr Jan Juracka and Czech climber and entrepreneur Honza Trava Travnicek while also getting awarded at ITB Berlin for a short tourism video in the innovation category.
But wait, there's more! In 2015, they started a YouTube music channel and a music label called Czech Vibes Sound, combining their love for visuals and music. They've built a space where different artistic elements come together. In 2020, they expanded their horizons by offering original music for cinematic projects.
