White-label production for agenciesFor agency partners

Production support for agencies:
built to deliver under pressure.

Your team owns the idea and the client relationship. Dept5 handles the production: video, motion, HTML5, campaign versions, localization, landing pages, and final delivery. Your agency owns the idea and the client. Dept5 handles video, motion, HTML5, campaign versions, localization, and delivery.

White-label when you need it. We work under your agency's name, sign NDAs, follow your process, hand over organized source files, and never pursue your clients. White-label when needed. NDA-ready, organized source files, and we never pursue your clients.

What it proves
Dept5 can handle the hero asset and the high-volume system around it.
White-label by design

Invisible to your client.
Accountable to your team.

Dept5 can operate as the production department behind your agency. You own the strategy, creative direction, presentation, and client relationship. We supply the senior makers, production systems, and QA needed to get ambitious work finished without adding permanent headcount.

Relationship protection
Your agency leads

We stay behind your name.

Your client remains your client. We can work through your account and creative leads, join selected production conversations, or remain completely invisible.

Confidentiality
NDA-ready

Private work stays private.

We do not turn confidential relationships into portfolio claims, prospecting stories, or public case studies. Access stays limited to the people doing the work.

Commercial trust
No client poaching

We are here to strengthen your account.

Dept5 does not use agency engagements to build a direct relationship around the agency. The goal is repeatable production trust, not account ownership.

Operational fit
Your workflow

A production partner, not another layer.

We plug into the briefing, review, naming, delivery, and communication system your team already uses, with one senior point of ownership.

Flexible capacity
Scale on demand

One difficult asset or a full launch matrix.

Bring us specialist motion, HTML5, finishing, or overflow work. Capacity can expand for launch peaks and contract again when the campaign ships.

Ownership and handoff
Clean source files

Built to hand back, revise, and reuse.

Projects close with organized source files, clear naming, export control, and production notes so your team can own the work after delivery.

§ 01

What your agency can hand to Dept5.

Capabilities
Pg. 01

You bring the strategy, client context, brand direction, and source creative. Dept5 turns it into finished launch assets with senior production oversight and dedicated QA before handoff. We can own one specialist lane or the entire production matrix.

Display & Rich Media/ 01

HTML5 banners that pass publisher specs.

Standard display, rich media, fallback states, file-size discipline, trafficking checks, and final handoff.

  • HTML5
  • Rich media
  • Apple News
  • Fallbacks
  • QA
  • Sub-200KB
More context

For marketing teams, this is the practical layer that makes media plans real: units built to spec, checked before handoff, and ready for publishers without turning every placement into a new production problem.

  • HTML5 builds, rich-media units, Apple News placements, backup images, clickthrough checks, file-size passes, and publisher-ready final packages.
  • Best fit when a campaign has many media partners, tight specs, or a lot of small delivery details that still need to feel polished.
Video & Motion/ 02

Cutdowns, supers, end cards, VFX, and 3D polish.

Campaign videos built for streaming, paid social, retail media, YouTube, TikTok, and launch pages.

  • Cutdowns
  • Supers
  • End cards
  • Sound
  • VFX
  • 3D
More context

Dept5 can take premium source footage, game capture, campaign art, or raw direction and turn it into platform-ready video assets with editorial pacing, sound design, motion polish, and clean version control.

  • Cutdowns, animated supers, end cards, logo/rating versions, VFX cleanup, 3D polish, sound design, and exports for paid social, CTV, YouTube, TikTok, retail media, and launch pages.
  • Best fit when the hero asset needs to become a family of ads without feeling like a smaller, weaker trailer.
Resize & Versioning/ 03

One idea adapted cleanly across every channel.

Aspect ratios, placements, formats, specs, creative variants, and version control without losing craft.

  • 1:1
  • 9:16
  • 16:9
  • CTV
  • Retail
  • Social
More context

This is where scale usually breaks creative. Dept5 keeps the system organized so every size, duration, format, and regional version still feels like the same campaign.

  • Format matrices, aspect-ratio adaptations, duration cutdowns, placement variants, naming discipline, review links, change tracking, and final export control.
  • Best fit when one approved idea needs to become dozens or hundreds of assets without losing hierarchy, polish, or brand consistency.
Localization/ 04

Multi-market work that still feels designed.

Languages, regions, legal lines, supers, end cards, review notes, and production checks.

  • Multi-language
  • ESRB
  • PEGI
  • CERO
  • Legal lines
  • QA
More context

Global launches need more than translation. We protect hierarchy, spacing, timing, rating requirements, final-file clarity, and compliance notes while markets and stakeholders keep moving.

  • Language swaps, legal lines, rating marks, region-specific supers, localized end cards, timing checks, text-fit passes, and stakeholder revision rounds.
  • Best fit when a launch has multiple markets, platform rules, ratings bodies, or regional reviewers who need accurate files fast.
Campaign Pages/ 05

Landing pages when the media needs somewhere to send people.

Launch pages, partner pages, product explainers, paid-media pages, proof pages, and lightweight interactive demos built around the offer.

  • Landing pages
  • Partner pages
  • Proof pages
  • Explainers
  • Demos
  • Offers
More context

These are focused campaign destinations, not bloated microsites: pages that make the paid-media click useful, support partner programs, or give stakeholders a clear place to point traffic.

  • Launch pages, partner pages, proof pages, explainers, offer pages, demo pages, campaign recaps, and lightweight interactive experiences.
  • Best fit when the campaign needs a sharper destination than a generic homepage or product page.
QA & Handoff/ 06

Legal, compliance, spec, and brand checks before anything ships.

Dedicated QA for copy, supers, logos, file specs, fallbacks, naming, exports, review links, trafficking notes, and final packages.

  • Legal
  • Compliance
  • Specs
  • Review links
  • Naming
  • Final files
More context

QA is part of the production system, not a last-minute pass. Dept5 checks the details that make complex launches survivable: copy, dimensions, compliance marks, naming, exports, fallbacks, and handoff clarity.

  • Copy/super checks, logo use, legal and compliance notes, rating marks, file specs, fallback states, export names, review links, trafficking notes, and final package review.
  • Best fit when a launch has lots of stakeholders, regulated claims, publisher specs, or a deadline where small mistakes become expensive.
Additional proof
The work we cannot show matters too. A substantial part of Dept5's agency-partner production is confidential, white-labeled, or delivered without public credit. We protect that boundary.

Founder-led.
Senior-run.
Easy for agencies to trust.

Studio
Pg. 05

Dept5 is founder-led, senior-run, and built around experienced motion designers, editors, developers, production artists, and QA specialists.

You get one accountable senior lead, fewer layers, faster decisions, and a consistent production standard from kickoff through final delivery. We are comfortable taking direction from your creative team and equally comfortable solving the production plan when the brief is still forming.
