Brand Entertainment Production, From Story to Screen

We don’t entertain just to fill time. We tell stories to create engagement.

Troublemakers is a production company specialising in brand entertainment content for brands and agencies. We create narrative formats designed to stand the test of time, capable of going beyond the boundaries of a campaign and finding their place on screens — on television, streaming platforms or digital channels.

The way we see it, brand entertainment begins where advertising ends: when a film, series or long-form format no longer simply carries a message, but tells a story people genuinely want to follow.

A Brand Entertainment Production Company Built Around Storytelling

At Troublemakers, everything starts with the writing. We work with screenwriters from film and television, as well as documentary writers, to develop strong, structured and compelling narratives. We apply the same level of ambition and rigour to brand entertainment projects as we do to documentaries, feature films or series.

We believe the strength of narrative content lies in the quality of its writing. Substance comes before form, meaning before direction. Whether it is a brand film, a series or a long-form format, the story is conceived, written, rewritten and crafted with precision.

What Is Brand Entertainment?

For us, brand entertainment is not advertising in disguise. It is a story supported by a brand, created to be watched for what it tells, rather than for what it sells. The brand is present, but never intrusive: it supports the story without taking it hostage.

Brand entertainment means being willing to take the time required for writing, development and storytelling. The time to create characters, a point of view and a journey. The time needed for a film or series to exist on a television channel, streaming platform or digital environment without compromising its editorial credibility.

A Long-Form Approach at the Crossroads of Brands and Broadcasters

Troublemakers supports brands in creating immersive content conceived as fully-fledged works: films, long-form formats, series and editorial experiences. Projects designed to stand the test of time and build lasting relationships with audiences.

Our strength lies in our ability to connect the worlds of brands and broadcasters. We create a natural bridge between brand entertainment, television and streaming platforms. The same narrative ambition, the same editorial standards, whatever the distribution environment.

From Writing to Post-Production of Brand Entertainment Content

Every project begins with an in-depth development phase: writing, narrative development, synopses, character arcs, scripts or documentary treatments. We develop projects together with writers and brands, through an ongoing dialogue, to ensure a story that is authentic, coherent and true to the values it represents.

Pre-production is then handled with the rigour of a film or television series: location scouting, casting, crew building, logistics and scheduling. Every shoot is prepared to give the story the space it needs to fully come to life on screen.

On set, we oversee artistic direction and cinematography: lighting, sound, image and rhythm. Production is managed with precision while leaving room for spontaneity and reality — essential elements of compelling narrative formats.

In post-production, we refine every project through editing, colour grading, motion design, mixing, sound design and visual effects when required. The content is then adapted into multiple formats for TV, streaming platforms and digital distribution, without compromising the original writing.
