get to know us

Ascent Media is a film and photography company with over two decades in the industry. 

Formerly known as Samurai AV, we work in all areas of production, have the knowledge and experience to oversee every detail, and manage projects from concept to delivery.

We shoot from sea to sky and are licensed drone pilots and qualified scuba divers.

Based in Melbourne, we have a full workshop of equipment and an experienced team of cinematographers, photographers, sound recordists and post-production editors to bring your story to life. 

who we work with

​​Ascent Media takes to underwater work like a shark to surfers. Their gear works extremely well and comes with all the bells and whistles you need for a navy seal operation. The ability to communicate from above to below surface adds extra control and reduces time splashing around in the shallow end.

Cesar Salmeron - Director

Considerate, constructive and responsive from start to finish. The team at Ascent Media instinctively understood the message I was hoping to convey, used their top-quality equipment and skills to quickly deliver a beautiful punchy video. I highly recommend Ascent Media for all your production needs - prepare to be impressed.

Katherine Copsey - The Greens

We have engaged Ascent Media to work on a number of projects for AusNet Services. This included; drone photography and videography, film editing, professional portrait photography, and much more. Without exception I have found all facets of their service to be of the absolute highest quality.

Rob Asselman - Ausnet
