SWITCH

What SWITCH does

SWITCH is a privately held, independent creative advertising agency headquartered at 5700 Wilshire Blvd in Los Angeles, California. The firm specializes in producing marketing campaigns for theatrical film releases and television series, offering end-to-end creative services from concept and copywriting through photoshoot art direction and high-end finishing. Its service portfolio spans five interconnected areas: print marketing (key art, posters, billboards), digital and social marketing (animated key art, motion graphics, social posts), theatrical marketing campaigns, television marketing campaigns, and branded content including experiential activations.

The agency's core technology is the creative production workflow itself rather than a software platform; services are delivered through human-led design, illustration, motion graphics, and art direction. There is no evidence of proprietary software, APIs, or platform infrastructure. Revenue is generated through project-based professional services fees negotiated directly with clients, with no publicly disclosed pricing structure.

SWITCH serves enterprise entertainment clients, with a documented roster including Lionsgate, STX Films, Paramount Pictures, Lifetime, History Channel, Freeform, A+E Networks, Fox Sports, Amazon Studios/Prime Video, and Food Network. The agency is described as gay-owned and operated, with at least one partner (Marco) from Mexico City providing bi-cultural/bilingual creative capability. The company is independently owned with no parent company, no subsidiaries, and no disclosed venture capital or private equity investment. Client acquisition is sales-led, driven by direct relationships with studios and networks, creative pitches, and a portfolio showcased through the company website and Instagram presence.
