Origins

At the heart of every community is a story. Our story centers around the Third Places that you find creatives scribbling away as they sip their coffee.

We prefer chai.

When we pull out our notepads, it’s to learn about the audience that you’re speaking to. We explore the stories around your brand and community to create innovative brand campaigns, social-first content, and intentional visual art. We pierce through the social media noise by blending culture and creative strategy.

550M+ SOCIAL VIEWS •

  • Ashish Yamdagni

    Executive Producer

    When Ashish isn’t building a community around the niches that he loves, he’s making attention-grabbing content. He started his journey producing TV shows for one of the biggest television networks in the world – Zee TV. After working for a network, he wanted to switch to the production side. As an editor and producer, he moved on to projects with brands like Amazon, Synchrony, Invesco, and BlackRock, and produced/edited a travel show for online platforms. He’s also earned over 150M+ views on his work with PopShift alone.

  • Tahmid Chowdhury

    Creative Director

    A born risk-taker, Tahmid made his mark by impulsively moving from Detroit to NYC. Joining DTC brand Kolkata Chai Co.; his work quickly landed him as their Head of Content. For years, he crafted everything from product photos to brand campaigns, contributing to their rise as NYC's hottest cafe. The content success built a loyal community of fans, which helped the KCC founders raise $1 million. Tahmid then pivoted to creating viral social content for PopShift. Somewhere in between, he found time to shoot for music artists and go on tour.

  • Sarowar Ahmed

    Director of Content

    Some people know their path from the moment they’re born. For Sarowar, he started photography classes when he was just six years old. He knew he wanted to become a video creator or die trying — so he started creating videos for himself, and when he took to vlogging, people noticed. Offers poured in from agencies and he took the leap of faith and jumped right into high caliber work. Thank god he did, because he was able to work with brands like Spotify, Pandora, Swarovski, Amazon, Snapchat and Instagram. If he’s not at NYFW shooting runway shows for fashion brands, he’s probably helping Delta gain over 100M+ views from his trading card content.
