Our Team


XOCREW is a creative collective based with dedicated talent team from Los Angeles, New York City and Asheville established by Anthony Abraira in 2010.

 

We function as a hybrid between production company and creative studio throughout New York City & Los Angeles. We collaborate with brands big and small to inform, engage, and inspire their audiences across a broad range of mediums. We are a multi-disciplinary collective encompassing film directors, designers, photographers, producers and artists. It engages in a broad variety of projects from film for music, fashion and brands, to installations, sound and virtual reality.
