Epitome was formed by Renico van Wyk and Marcel Swanepoel in 2008 as a collective of digitally inspired filmmakers and creators. As creative director, Marcel leads the conceptual design with writing, directing, production and photography. While Renico is in charge of technical operations in editing, sound, VFX, animation and cinematography. We offer these services to all spectrums of video production. These include branded content, corporate videos, short films, documentaries, music videos, event videography, wedding videographers and advertisements.

Short films give us the freedom to explore conceptual ideas and permits us to express ourselves as creatives… While building some superb brands and businesses in the process.

We work with innovative institutions in tech and social sectors like Amazon, AirBnB, WCPP, Private Property, DJI, Booking.com, UCT, Cape Peninsula University of Technology and various other agencies and artists to film and produce their latest stories that need voices. Our team has created content for influential networks in South Africa including Showmax, KykNet, Mk & the SABC. Together, we have documented over 300 exclusive events around South Africa and work with some of the best in the industry. Along with this we have made numerous videos showcasing architecture, venues, and other spaces in the Western Cape and have been capturing the moments at WPP Stream Africa for the past five years. Most of all our work is regularly featured on some popular platforms with global reach, so come and speak to us about your next project.
