m25 welcomes Vantage Pictures to the network
Vantage Pictures, operating in Vietnam and Hong Kong, have become the latest addition to the rapidly expanding m25 network.
Vantage Pictures was founded in 2019 by four filmmakers from different continents—Alexis Odiowei, Paul Moore, Zacharia Lorenz, and James Duong— who met while working at aerial drone manufacturer DJI, in Shenzhen, China. As key members of DJI’s brand studio, they played a pivotal role in transforming the company from a small startup into the global leader in aerial drone and camera technology. This experience laid the groundwork for Vantage’s core mission: helping brands in Asia share their stories across borders and cultural boundaries.
Vantage has since grown into a leading international production company with offices in Vietnam and Hong Kong. Their work has attracted the attention of major global agencies and brands, and networks, including Hyundai, ASUS, OPPO, CNN, OnePlus, Old Spice, Toyota, Samsung, Coca-Cola, and Huawei.
Alexis Odiowei, co-founder and managing director, Vantage Pictures, said: “We felt a strong synergy with m25 as we feel our mission statements are well aligned. Like ourselves, we see that m25 has a strong understanding of the intricacies of the different markets across asia. m25 also have a unique, diverse, collaborative network of partners that seem to have a clear shared vision, this really appeals to us.”
James Duong, co-founder, executive producer, Vantage Pictures, said: “We are so thrilled to join the impressive m25 network. Also, a big ‘drawcard’ was that the founders of the company also have vast experience across the region in leadership roles and have therefore built up a strong network in some of the regions we hope to enter in the near future.”
Stephen Douglas, founder, m25, said: “We are very excited to be collaborating with the Vantage Pictures team. Alexis, Paul, Zacharia and James have established something very special in Vietnam and the region and are constantly outputting innovative, stylish and diverse work. They are also a great ‘fit’ internally for the other m25 network partners. More so, Vietnam is becoming very popular as a serious and resourceful location for production services, Vantage Pictures have proven many times, that they are perfectly positioned for this.”
“They are a fantastic offering and one that I am really excited to share with our Korean clients, as I feel they are well suited to the vibrant and complex Korean market,” added Chloe Ko, founder, m25.
