We partner with ambitious founders, cultural brands, and high-growth startups to deliver end-to-end creative campaigns spanning film, strategy, digital, and growth. Our work includes the first officially sanctioned MMA event in Times Square, a U.S. congressional campaign raising $250K in 24 hours, launch ads for venture-backed startups, and preproduction on multi-million dollar features.

Every project is rooted in cinematic storytelling, elevated by AI-enhanced workflows, and scaled across platforms with precision. From narrative to execution, every frame, channel, and asset is crafted to shape perception, drive results, and create lasting cultural impact.

Why Rubin5?
Rubin5 is named in honor of the 5 Star Ranch, a place of magic and family I visited every Thanksgiving growing up. Though the ranch was sold last year, its spirit endures as a symbol of legacy, creativity, and belonging. Rubin5 is a tribute to my grandfather, whose vision and strength continue to inspire the studio’s work and values.
