What 8112 studios does

8112 Studios is a New York-based, full-service production company founded in 2006 that delivers branded content across video, photography, and immersive media (augmented reality, virtual reality, and virtual production). The company operates as a private, founder-owned boutique with 1-10 employees and a portfolio spanning Fortune 500 enterprise clients including Amazon, AWS, Apple, Disney, Meta, Condé Nast, Volkswagen, Jeep, National Geographic, Netflix, Honda, Mini, Starbucks, and Syngenta. Core technical capabilities include 360-degree VR film production, AR configurator applications (notably the award-winning Jeep Wrangler AR app), virtual soundstage production (Amazon Studios' Stage 15), and AppSec-approved secure remote filming with thousands of kits deployed globally since COVID-19.

The business runs a project-based professional services model. Revenue is generated through direct B2B engagements with enterprise clients for end-to-end campaign production — covering creative development, production, multi-platform delivery, and adjacent services such as event production, demand generation, graphic design, and budget/vendor management. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise sales with a relationship-driven channel built around Amazon divisions (Publishing, AWS, Kindle, Studios, Retail) and partner agencies including BLN24, Luxid, and Studio Mass. The AWS relationship is a decade-long strategic anchor, evidenced by dedicated website infrastructure, yellow badge contractor access to Amazon internal tools, and AppSec security protocol compliance that creates a meaningful barrier to competitor substitution.

8112 has expanded its service surface over time, from traditional photo/video into immersive AR/VR and virtual production, and has begun incorporating generative AI tooling into select AR campaigns (Volkswagen Arteon art show, Peterson Automotive Museum). The company has been recognized with two Smartie Awards and a first-place Ragan's 2020 VR award. It remains privately held with no disclosed external funding and operates as a capacity-constrained boutique rather than a scaled production network.
