About Astro
Astro Creative was established in Metro Detroit, Michigan in October 2017 by co-founders Jason Lanham and Alex Jacobson. We started by creating a wide variety of content, including feature film, short film, television, event coverage, concert recaps, festival recaps, music videos, commercials, social media advertisements, personal branding videos, and more.
​
Astro has since honed its focus to what we truly love to do: creating campaigns and strategies to tell unique stories for brands all around the world.
​
We take pride in creating things that don't fit the mold. We started with the intention of never making "cookie-cutter" visuals, adding cinematic style and aggressive editing to projects. We love our job and have fun on set, and believe that everyone involved should fun with every project.
​
We're excited to be doing what we love. Can't wait to work with you.
