Marta Calheiros

Mamma Team sprang to life in Barcelona back in 2005, and its growth has been nothing short of meteoric. Initially catering primarily to global clients seeking local support for their advertising shoots (stills and TV), Mamma Team gradually expanded its footprint across various production domains.

Their repertoire now spans far beyond their advertising roots, encompassing documentaries, music videos, events, movie trailers, and the comprehensive creation, development, and executive production across multiple genres. They effortlessly navigate short and long formats, seamlessly transitioning into the digital landscape.

Establishing roots in Portugal in 2019 amid the challenges posed by the global pandemic, Mamma Team's perseverance bore fruit with the establishment of an extensive and valued clientele despite the hurdles presented by two years of Covid restrictions.
