Welcome

What’s the Fing Studio?

The Fing Studio is a collective of writers, producers, designers, coders and other creatives from all over the globe who take the best Fing Ideas and make them a reality.

Modeled after the highly effective way that film production crews swarm a complex project, then disappear like Keyser Soze, we come together to produce movies, apps, products, brands, and – when we do it right – moments in the zeitgeist

What’s a Fing Idea?

A Fing Idea is one piece of a bigger idea, the one big idea out there that belongs to us all.

Wherever there’s a design so right it has to be made, it’s there. Wherever there’s a word so perfect it has to be said, it’s there.

It’s there in the way our team shouts when we know we’ve found it, and in the way our audience smiles when they take it and run with it. That’s a Fing Idea.

Starbucks

The Coffeehouse

We focused on the brand proposition that Starbucks is the modern day version of the coffeehouse. Starting with music, we created Starbucks brand extensions into publishing, television, movies and new media.

Music

With Blue Note, Starbucks Music began. Initially a homegrown effort in Seattle stores, we saw an opportunity to curate the sound of Starbucks into it’s own record label.

DNA

The goal was try new things, see what worked, see what stuck, learn from what didn’t, and keep going. More than anything else, that ethos expressed a core part of the Starbucks DNA, and is one reason why the company is the success it is today.

Zipadedu

THE CHALLENGE

Before kids can write they draw. Which means parents are hanging the opening chapter in the story of their child’s life on the fridge. But day in and day out, kids create a huge amount of art. Parents can’t keep up. Multiply that by over 60 million kids in the U.S. and pretty soon we’re gonna run out of refrigerators

THE SOLUTION

Zipadedu solves our looming refrigerator shortage. Hooray! But if we say anything more, we’ll be giving away the store.

Look for the Zipadedu product launch announcement in 2013.

Skills

 

Find the Story

Finding the story means digging into an idea to uncover whatever it is that resonates as deeply as possible as widely as possible, with the right audience in the right way. Hardest part of the whole process.

Define the Story

Hollywood is full of waiters with ideas for a movie. Silicon Valley is full of Ivy League dropouts with ideas for a startup. Whether it’s a script, a strategy, or a pitch to investors, the goal is to take your story and turn it into a viable proposal that your audience will want to learn more about.

Make the Story

Anyone can talk about a story but making it right, in the right medium, is a requirement for any story to have any impact or meaning. So whether it’s a film, a website, a brand identity, or a live experience, making stories come to life is all about execution execution execution. And that’s what we’re known for.
