We've rebranded

Southern Studios is now Fanaticals

Same team. New name & ambition.

As Southern Studios ticked over 6-years last year, we felt we had outgrown our own skin. Our brand didn't quite align with our recent work, new services and evolving creative ambition. So we've applied a fresh lick of paint to capture this new direction and represent us on the world stage in years to come.

Welcome to Fanaticals — a passionate bunch of thinkers, creatives and filmmakers, hell-bent on making the best ad campaigns and branded content out there.

We know this is pretty fresh, so if you're looking for someone at Southern, here are our Director's new emails:

Their empathetic approach and passion for capturing the heartbeat of our story saw them produce an emotive campaign which not only showcased our brand, but our passion for people and their experiences with us. They're a trifecta of rare genius and I can't wait to work on another project with them all, again."
