Creative Vision is a multi-talented and multi-functional Production Company, founded in 1986 by director/producer Jo Horn and is fully BEE compliant.
Merging traditional filmmaking with the digital world, we've combined production, VFX, 3-D animation and post-production under one roof. We facilitate not only our own productions but those of other production houses as well. Utilizing the best talent and tools, we creatively construct exceptional moving images. A string of prestigious awards is a direct result of the talent we have assembled.
A strong emphasis on innovation means we are consistently finding creative and cost-effective solutions to productions.
OUR WORK
We have worked for most of the top 20 advertising agencies in South Africa and their prestigious clients such as, Coca-Cola, Telkom, Absa, and Samsung to name a few. We've also had the privilege of working for Saatchi & Saatchi Middle East creating five animated commercials for Toyota.
We pride ourselves in the distinction of having the first black female director /producer team working on commercials in South Africa.
In 2006 Creative Vision made its first short film, The Mamtsotsi Bird, as a calling card to the long form industry. The Mamtsotsi Bird has been accepted into over 50 film festivals worldwide and has won no less than 5 gold awards internationally. The film has received numerous nominations for best visual effects and animation in Hollywood and has also been invited to prestigious festivals such as the Pan African Festival in New York and the Cape Town Film Festival to name but a few.
Since being presented at the Short Film Corner in Cannes we have been inundated with requests from other festivals world wide.
