BUILDING YOUR EMPIRE

About
The Founders

Two People, One Studio

Dead Serious has two founders, Jay and Jess. Between us that's the business, the build, and the design, which is everything a creator business needs to exist.

Jay Carter Brymer

Business & Software

Jay handles the business side and builds the software. Positioning, monetization, and the commercial model on one hand; the architecture, the code, and the systems that run it on the other.

Jess Phillips

Design

Jess handles design. Brand and identity, the interface, and the way a product actually feels to use, so what we ship looks like it belongs to the creator it was built for.

And A Bigger Bench

The two of us are the founders, but we don't build everything alone. We work with a community of freelance specialists and contract them in per project, so every build gets the right people for that specific job, rather than whoever happens to be on a payroll.

Work With Us

You have the audience. We build the business around it.
