Your ads are only as good as the video in them.
City of Angels Advertising is a performance marketing company that shoots its own films. We build the offer, produce the video and run the campaigns on Meta. Local businesses get customers. Employers get applicants.

Targeting is the easy part.
Meta finds the right people on its own now. What it cannot do is make them care. That takes an offer worth clicking and a video worth watching, so we do both in one team.
Performance marketing
Customers for local businesses. We sharpen the offer, produce the creative and run the campaigns on Facebook and Instagram. You always know what a lead costs.
Applicants for employers. Recruiting campaigns for the roles that job boards do not fill. Film, ads, an applicant portal and a first screening, so your team only meets people worth meeting.
Landing pages that convert. Every campaign gets a page written and built for it. Paid traffic never lands on a homepage.
Film production
Brand and image films. The film that shows who you are, shot on cinema cameras and cut to hold attention from the first second.
Recruiting films. Your own people in your real workplace. Candidates decide fast whether they can see themselves there.
Reels and short form. Every shoot is cut into a library of vertical clips for ads and social, so your marketing team has material long after we leave.
The work
A Harley-Davidson dealership, manufacturers with hundreds of employees and creators with a billion views. Press play.
