Design
Rotate it 28°. Not 27.
Identities, campaigns, annual reports and packaging. Systems that hold up in every format, down to the degree nobody else notices.
Hill & Olive, creative studio
Everything, directed.
A creative studio in Manama for brands, films, apps, websites and spaces, held to one point of view from the first brief to the launch.
What we make
Every craft sets it a problem.
Keep scrolling and watch the olive solve each one on its way to the next.
Film
Take 28. That's the one.
Brand films, commercials and social cuts, written, shot and edited with one eye on the story and one on the media plan.
VFX
Never shoot lime on a lime screen. Unless you can comp it back.
Compositing, clean up and motion graphics: the invisible fixes that make a hard shot look easy.
3D
Every angle considered.
Product visuals, space visualisation and animation, modelled properly so one model serves the render, the stand and the screen.
Apps
One new notification. Worth opening.
Mobile apps from first flow to the App Store and Google Play: UX, interface, build and launch, with one person accountable for every release.
Web
Loaded before you finish reading this.
Websites and web apps that load fast, read clearly and are easy for your team to update.
Spatial design
Planning permission granted.
Exhibition stands, interiors and exteriors, planned for how people move through them and built to be photographed.

The studio
Anyone can generate a thousand options now. Choosing the right one, and making it real on a screen and in a room, is the job.
Deepak Ajith founded Hill & Olive and is accountable for every project, working with specialists where a job needs them.
Seventeen years across film, VFX, 3D, apps, websites, campaigns and exhibition stands, mostly behind the scenes and under other people's names. This studio is the front of house.
One person owns the choice on every project, so nothing gets lost between the brand, the film, the product and the space.
