About Work

Founded by David Green, Satellite Augmentation (SAM) is a forward-thinking American aerospace company, pioneering in the development of innovative spacecraft and cost-effective space flight services. The company is known for its unique approach to designing and prototyping advanced spacecraft technologies.

We were commissioned to create an audio-visual production for SAM’s flagship spacecraft, which provides life extension services such as station-keeping, on-demand maneuvers, satellite retirement, and debris removal. The satellite's technology demonstrates a groundbreaking approach to Earth's expanding space orbits, with capabilities that include autonomous satellite rendezvous, refueling, and repositioning.

The graphics, music, and SFX were meticulously crafted to follow the spacecraft’s life-extension services, from ground operations to higher orbits. Our collaboration helped Satellite Augmentation communicate their innovative technology with clarity and precision, positioning them for rapid growth in the aerospace industry.
