Cinema-grade.
Founder-minded.
A California studio producing commercial films, brand campaigns, and digital platforms — with the instincts of founders who build their own companies.
The Studio
A studio that builds its own companies.
Founded in 2018 by Sebastian Werz — YC alum, Berkeley graduate — WERZ was built on a simple bet: the best creative studios should build companies of their own. Today we produce commercial films and brand campaigns worldwide, backed by a vetted network of crew, talent, and locations across LA, San Francisco, and California's Central Valley.
Cinema-grade equipment, AI-powered workflow, and two ventures of our own. When we spend your budget, we bring the instincts of founders who spend their own money.

What we believe
Skin in the game changes everything.
We run our own companies — a hot sauce brand, a commerce platform. When we spend your budget, we bring the instincts of founders who spend their own money.
Cinema-grade craft. AI-powered workflow.
We shoot on professional cinema equipment and integrate AI at every stage — faster pre-production, smarter creative variations, tighter turnarounds. In 2026, the best studios use both.
Ship over strategy.
We produce commercials, build platforms, launch brands. Things that go live and generate revenue — not 40-page decks.
