WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY ABOUT US …

I have worked in advertising for roughly 16 years, and one thing I learned early on is that the finishing part of all the projects can kill or make your project. Every time I was lucky enough to work with Rocket, the project was a complete success. The thoroughness of everybody there, the talent of the people and the pleasure of working with all of them made it the best experience I have had. Will I work with Rocket again? Any chance I get.
– Alec Vianu – Creative Director

I have had the good fortune of working with Rocket Studio on several projects for Lincoln and Jaguar cars. Their digital artists are fine artists, not mere computer technicians. Because of their skill and attention to details such as light, shadow, reflection and perspective, the completed images are perfectly assembled and feel natural.
– Mike Barton – Creative Director, Goodby, Silverstein & Partners

I am a German photographer mainly working on automotive projects. These projects have offered me the opportunity to work all over the world and to meet the most gifted people in the industry. After working with them on major ad campaigns for Infiniti and Acura, I can say that Rocket Studio is one of the best. Besides the very pleasant collaboration on challenging projects, I especially admire their ability to combine pictures and create new visual worlds.
– Olaf Hauschulz – Advertising Photographer based in Germany

As the Manager of Art Production at Saatchi & Saatchi, LA, I work with companies worldwide. Rocket consistently does some of the best work on our projects. The staff is very professional and always goes the extra mile to make sure we have what we need.
– Cindy Rowe – Manager/Art Production, Saatchi & Saatchi

I have consistently found their work to be exemplary. Not only that, they stay abreast of all the latest technologies and industry applications ensuring the best possible end product. They’re always pleasant, easy to communicate with and accessible, which in this industry is paramount given the often–tight timelines.
– Dana Markee – Senior Art Director, TBWA\Chiat\Day

I’ve had the privilege of working with Rocket Studio many times over the years and cannot say enough about their talent and professionalism. I’ve asked them to do the impossible on several occasions and they have done so and far exceeded my expectations. Because their digital artists have backgrounds in illustration, they are partners in the creative process. I’ve paired them with a wide range of creative directors, art directors, designers and photographers with great success. They go above and beyond to make sure that projects are kept on budget and delivered on time. I heartily recommend Rocket Studio. They are an extraordinary group of creative professionals.
– Amy Moorman – Director of Art Buying
