Commercial films.
A story worth telling.

A Cape Town production company for TV commercials, brand films and commercial photography. We turn a campaign brief into films and images made for the way your audience sees them.

Let’s talk about your project ↗

From the idea to the finished campaign.

A strong commercial starts with a clear purpose. What does the audience need to understand about the brand? What should they feel? Where will they see the work? These questions shape the concept, the production and the final delivery.

Dustborne Films is led by Marko De Beer and Bryce Barnard. Our services span concept development, commercial directing, cinematography, photography and post-production, with a particular focus on adventure and automotive campaigns.

We work with brands and agencies on film and photography briefs, from a single commercial to a collection of campaign assets. A project can combine a main film with social edits and photographs for websites, brochures and billboards. We agree the intended use and deliverables with you before production.

Work with a clear purpose.

The Orial Outdoor × Outdoor Warehouse brand film brings outdoor product storytelling into a retail campaign. Our Mahindra Scorpio-N advert focuses on off-road capability, while our Chery Tiggo 8 Pro Max launch films introduce a new vehicle. See the portfolio for the finished work and project credits.

Plan your production

Do you work directly with brands and with agencies?

Yes. We can develop a brief with a brand or work with an agency’s campaign direction. Share the idea, intended audience, channels, budget and schedule so we can define our role and the deliverables clearly.

Based in Cape Town. Open to the world.

A brief can
start anywhere.

We welcome enquiries from brands and agencies across South Africa, including Cape Town, and from England, the wider UK and Europe. Tell us where your production needs to happen so we can discuss the location, schedule and scope.
