With so much of what we are doing currently being behind closed doors and built to a point where websites can be launched and publicized heavily it is interesting to see how the market is changing, much of which is having an affect on what we have been planning long term. At the moment we have a huge amount of information saved and ready to be used for future projects with plans and goals that have been at the heart of The Lost Agency since inception.

At the moment the warm weather has really been a boost to the work and given a much needed boost to the energy around the Lost Agency, to the point where we are looking for a new space and location to shift and give us a more permanent home that will be split between office space and a shooting space for commercial work and of course, the art projects that are being built quietly in the background.

Delving into the concept and business modelling behind incubation has been really interesting, while the focus would be the internal, it is none the less something that is going to be a big part of the future of Lost Agency because it will allow us to expand into new areas of work while controlling the output and aesthetics we are building as the concept grows.

We have been asked before how we chose the title of the lost and expanded that into the various elements we have in place and are currently pending. It is actually fairly straight forward and simple, we felt that there was elements of what we did that were disjointed and lost and needed a central point to work from and a true identity and brand to stand behind.

Opening (metaphorical) doors is a strange process when you run a business of any kind, you spend time putting together a plan based on available information and work with that but with the option to expand should it be required once you move forward to the next phase or into the next room as the door opens.

We are now on the hunt for location that fit the darker, more grungy style that our head of makeup and creative director JamesC has been building with his upcoming project site. While we have access to some amazing spots ranging from amphitheater like sections of forest park and the beach, we really want to find some semi derelict spaces that will be used as part of a wider concept that will later be included in film work.

Since our last blog time has been spent on research with the longer term plans being central to that. The end goal of this being media production with JamesC leading that as the head of makeup. What we have found that will benefit this is a range of options and avenue options to explore from YouTube channels to the download market which is an increasingly positive avenue that is going to be explored in greater detail.

The progress we are making is deliberately slow, the choice to take a road less travelled was something that may not make waves or give a huge push to notoriety, it is moving the way I wanted and allowing a greater sense of accomplishment to be play out.

As many will know, we have been on a hiatus admittedly longer than planned but we are now back and more focused than ever. We have sadly decided to close several of our sites down and refocus our energy on a new set of projects that will be slow released and put us firmly in the commercial arena.
