What's up with the name ABOL anyway?
Acute Bear & Obtuse Llama? Quite a name, huh! The story of how we arrived at this name is not as complicated though, we basically named each other over a casual cup of coffee in our small apartment.
Acute Bear
Amlan felt Sana resembled a Bear in the wild - strong-willed, fiercely protective of those she loves, and feels a deep connection to nature. And "Acute" because she is sharp, perceptive, intense, and highly sensitive.
Obtuse Llama
Sana felt Amlan resembled a Llama - quiet but determined, light-hearted, adaptable, and dependable, and likes to be funny. And "Obtuse" because he is the obvious joker in the group. Secret - He doesn't like being called Amy!
Your Questions
Answered
What's the general vibe of your projects?
Think mountains, remote locations, earthy vibes, nostalgic retro but with a modern tinge. It's that and much more. Check out previous work.
Can you match our existing brand aesthetic?
Absolutely, we pride ourselves on adaptability. But we also have a knack for coming up with radical ideas. Some find it extreme; we call it natural. You choose what you want.
How long does the creative process take?
From ideation to delivery, the process usually takes 2-4 weeks, depending on its complexity. Our largest project has been 6 weeks, but that's very rare.
Do you have the tools necessary to collaborate?
The short answer is yes. We are ready to collaborate with anyone resource-wise. While we are embedded in Sony, Fuji, and Nikon ecosystems, versatility is the game we play.
Do you handle everything yourself?
We handle the end-to-end creation process, starting from ideation, storyboarding, filming, editing, and delivery; unless we are collaborating with other creatives on larger projects.
What services do you specialise in?
Media production, product placements, editorial photography, remote exploration, and anthropological documentation. Send us a mail, we would love to talk.
