Who We Are

We’re Tandem—a boutique, creative agency based in Newport, Rhode Island. We specialize in making brands shine online through creative storytelling, eye-catching visuals, and smart strategies that drive results.

We’ve had the privilege of working with some of Rhode Island’s most recognizable names, including The Newport Mansions, The Ocean House, South County Tourism, Discover Newport, and Kiel James Patrick. Our local roots and experience in tourism and hospitality give us a unique perspective—and a lot of love—for helping destinations stand out.

At Tandem, we’re all about bringing fresh ideas to the table, creating content people want to share, and building connections that keep audiences engaged. We’re creative, collaborative, and committed to making The 212 as exciting online as it is in person.

Our Vision for The 212

A Fresh Approach to Social Media & Content Creation

The 212 isn’t just a building; it’s a vibe. It’s where Block Island’s easy coastal charm meets thoughtful design, great food, and unforgettable nights. From the laid-back comfort of the Bunkhouse to the high-energy, Hamptons-meets-Nantucket feel of OneBI, the grab-and-go ease of the Pasta Patch, and the classic seaside flavors at the Clam Shack, this space is set to become a destination in itself.

Our vision is to craft a digital presence that captures the 212’s personality and positions it as a must-visit destination for locals and travelers alike. Through strategic content and creative storytelling, we aim to:

  • Create a polished, high-end website video that showcases the unique energy and experiences of the 212.

  • Develop engaging, trend-driven UGC content that highlights each business while driving excitement and foot traffic.

  • Build a cohesive brand narrative that connects all the 212’s offerings into one unforgettable destination.

With Tandem as your content partner, the 212’s voice will be effortlessly stylish, vibrant, and unmistakably Block Island—a reflection of its community, its visitors, and its one-of-a-kind appeal. We’ll bring creativity, local insight, and a modern touch to make sure the 212 is more than a place—it’s the place.

Capturing the 212 in 30 Seconds

To showcase everything the 212 brings to Block Island, we’re proposing a high-quality 30-second banner video for your website. The goal is to feature all four businesses, set the scene with some iconic Block Island aerial footage, and create something that feels polished, professional, and authentic to the vibe you’re building.

Here’s the plan:

  • A 3-person crew (director, producer, cinematographer) will spend two days on location capturing every angle, with two overnight stays to get the best light, moments, and energy.

  • High-end drone footage will bring in stunning aerials of Block Island and highlight the 212’s setting.

  • We’ll bring in professional lighting and gear to ensure every frame looks sharp and cinematic.

  • Talent:

    • If you’d like models or on-screen talent, we can handle the booking and coordination for an additional fee.

    • If you’d rather source talent locally, that’s great too—it keeps things simple and flexible.
