A film and photography studio in the heart of Geneva. A partner, not a supplier. Everything made under one roof, shaped around you. We don’t make content. We provoke.
Brand films and photography for watchmaking, luxury and premium sport. Shot in Geneva, in English and French.
Led by Sebastian Van Eickelen, filmmaker and photographer. Small by choice — one point of contact, the same hands from first conversation to final grade.

Services
Brand Films
Films that carry a name for years, not a season. We build them slowly, and to last.
Commercials
Campaign films for broadcast and cinema. Made to reward the second viewing, not just win the first.
Photography
Stills made alongside the film or on their own: product, portrait, place. Shot by the same hands that shot the film.
Post-Production
Edit, colour, sound and subtitles, finished in-house. The grade is set on a calibrated screen, not guessed at.
Content Strategy
Before a camera moves, we decide what’s worth saying and where it should live. Fewer pieces, each with a reason.
Art Direction
The look of the thing: set, wardrobe, frame, type. The details a viewer never notices, and would notice missing.
How we work
Brief
We start with a long conversation and a short document: what this is for, who it’s for, and what it must not be.
Pre-Production
We scout the locations, choose the crew by hand, and agree every shot before one is taken.
Production
A small unit, on time, on the day. Film and stills, shot against the plan and the weather.
Post & Delivery
We finish the cut, colour, sound and subtitles here, then deliver every format the release needs.
PROVOKE handled our brand film from brief to final delivery in under six weeks. One team, one point of contact, everything finished in-house: colour, sound, subtitles. We came back for three more projects the same year.
