Start from the music
We listen first. The look comes from the music, never from a template.
About UMMONTE
A small studio of musicians,filmmakers and developers.
We are a creative studio for independent artists.We make the videos, photos and brand around your music, and everything you need to release it.
Born in Brazil. Working from wherever the music is.
On the road
Wherever the music is.
UMMONTE is a Brazilian studio with international experience. We work with artists in different countries, on tour or between projects, and when we cannot be in the room we direct and finish the work remotely.
Who we are
A creative studio for music and video.
UMMONTE is an independent creative studio for music and audiovisual work. We started in Brazil, producing local artists, and little by little we have been expanding into the international field.
We come from music production, filmmaking, photography, editing and design, and you can see the mix in the work: we hear the music first, and video sits at the center of most of what we make.
Two people run the studio, Jardel Montenegro and Aline Pasetti, and we bring in partner producers and local crews when a project needs them.

Our mission
We help independent artists develop, produce and launch their projects, so the right people can see what the music already is.
Many artists spend years on their craft and much less time on how it is presented. The music, the performance and the story exist. What is missing is the material that lets the right people see it.
The style comes from the project
We do not turn artists into identical products. We look for the visual universe that already lives inside the music.
Make the material that gets it seen
Videos, photos, brand, bio and press material: finished, organized and ready to use.
The people
The people behind the work.

In their words
What an artist says about the work.
I would not have been able to make that connection and set up that relationship if it wasn't for the stuff that you guys were doing.
This has been the main thing that I've needed to upgrade to be professional, and it's working.
