Hello! We are The Situation Room.

We have been a creative production house for over 15 years and in that time have created content for an incredibly interesting and diverse group of clients and channels. Cooking shows for SBS, Ads for Realestate.com.au, digital documentaries for Take 3, Tomra, and Tangaroa Blue, incredible performances for the Australian Chamber Orchestra, and even a campaign with The Bondi Hipsters for Travel Portland. We’ve won awards for work in our previous lives making television for Foxtel, and in our current life on projects like Avalon Now. We are story tellers, we are curious, and we seriously love making interesting, funny, popular, and engaging content.
