DESPERADA

is a creative studio operating at the intersection of The Arts and The West. Built on a rare dual fluency, the studio unites the artistic rigor of high-level film and advertising with a lived connection to the Western way of life — establishing a creative engine for brands to explore, elevate, and expand their connection to the modern West.

Founded by a lifelong horsewoman and seasoned creative lead in film, television, and national advertising, DESPERADA draws on a decade of experience shaping 360 campaigns for billion-dollar brands, A-list talent, and top-tier agencies. Our history in premium storytelling is met with a marrow-deep connection to the culture we serve — a creative team who doesn’t just observe the West, but inhabits it. This convergence of lived experience and industry excellence allows us to create work that not only reflects the West, but helps define it.

Evolving from its origins in independent film, DESPERADA now operates as a multi-faceted, multi-media brand agency, specializing in brand development through tailor-made creative and marketing services.
