OUR STORY
From Blue Tin
to Studio 828.
More than two decades of production experience, shaped by real sets, real clients and a growing bridge between the U.S. and Asia.
Studio 828 Productions grew from Blue Tin Productions, where early commercial work included campaigns created for Kang and Lee Advertising. Since 2001, the company has expanded across branded content, corporate communication, narrative production and project development.

LOS ANGELES ↔ HONG KONG
Two cities.
One creative home.
Los Angeles is our U.S. production base. In Hong Kong, long-term relationships and participation in FILMART support conversations with producers, local crews, and potential partners. The work begins by finding the people and production approach a project actually needs.

DEVELOPMENT & CO-PRODUCTIONS
Production support beyond the shoot.
We have produced short-form and feature-length work and supported projects that require more than a camera crew. Studio 828 can help shape budgets, schedules, production plans and the practical road from development toward completion.
For projects with an Asian component, Hong Kong relationships can support conversations around local production, co-production, financing and distribution strategy.
