Cannon Broth Studios is an independent creative studio. We make original stories, art, objects, campaigns, and experiences. Bring us an idea or a cultural challenge, and we can find the form that gives it life.
A film, a piece of clothing, a social series, or a surfboard graphic can all begin with the same question: what would make this unmistakably Cannon Broth?
We develop our own work and collaborate on new ideas. These are examples of where an idea can go, not a menu that limits what we take on.
A screenplay, character, comic, documentary, or world with a reason to exist beyond its format.
Explore original work → 02 / IMAGE & OBJECTArt, garments, printed editions, product graphics—even a surfboard concept shaped by a distinct visual idea.
See art and objects → 03 / CULTURE & SOCIALA campaign, social series, or brand concept built around something people might actually care to share.
Explore collaborations → 04 / EXPERIENCEAn event, installation, or space where the creative direction extends into what people see, hear, and feel.
Bring us a challenge →The idea tells us where to go. The work shows you why.
Our own projects show the range: a visual label, a film, a mythology, and a playful audience world. Development status is shown on each project.

03 / CANNON BROTH EDITIONS · IN DEVELOPMENT
Our illustrated publishing arm turns original ideas into tactile, audience-ready experiences. The first slate is currently being developed—not announced as finished before the work is ready.
View the publishing slate →An original story may begin with a character. A collaboration may begin with a product, a place, an audience, or a problem worth solving. We find the point of view, develop the concept, and shape its expression.
Begin with a story, product, audience, place, question, or challenge that deserves a stronger idea.
Define the emotion, visual language, cultural context, and reason this work should exist.
Film, art, clothing, social content, product, or live experience—the medium serves the concept.
Write, direct, design, revise, and test until the idea is specific enough to recognize.
Work with the makers and partners the project needs to move from concept toward reality.
Bring us an idea, a product, or a cultural challenge. We can develop the concept and creative direction together. We also partner to bring Cannon Broth originals into the world through clearly defined rights.
Film, animation, proof-of-concept production, development financing, and project-specific capital.
Comics, books, limited series, and format-specific adaptation relationships.
Premium physical objects, garments, editions, fulfillment, retail, and audience access.
Original campaign concepts, story development, brand worlds, cultural projects, and creative direction.
NICOLAS KING / FOUNDER & CREATIVE DIRECTOR
Nicolas King leads original concepts, story foundations, visual direction, project development, and the creative standard connecting every arm of Cannon Broth.
His work moves between cinema, mythology, image, object, and experience. The medium may change; the demand for emotional truth and a recognizable point of view does not.
