OUR STORY
ELEVATE YOUR BRAND
About Ascension Agency
Great storytelling makes people feel something. Strategic storytelling makes people act. At Ascension Agency, we work at the intersection of both - where creativity meets commercial impact. Ascension Agency is an international creative agency based in South Africa, founded in 2019. We specialise in story-led digital content, campaign creation and brand communication that feels human, looks exceptional, and performs with purpose.
At our core, we are storytellers and strategists. We craft high-quality visual and written content informed by industry-relevant insight, resulting in refined, emotionally resonant work that is intentional, distinctive, and built to elevate how brands show up in the world. From cinematic visuals and brand campaigns to digital storytelling ecosystem, we help brands communicate with clarity, build trust, and create lasting impact. Ensuring their message is not just shared, but felt and remembered.
Founder & Creative Director
Chané Ludick is a Creative Director, Brand Strategist and Content Creator specialising in high-impact, story-led brand communication. She fell in love with storytelling at four years old, camera in hand, and hasn't stopped since. She believes the best brand work happens when creativity, strategy and authenticity intersect - where emotion meets intention, and content doesn't just perform, it connects. Her work spans global travel, sport, hospitality, automotive and lifestyle sectors, producing campaigns that balance visual excellence with commercial clarity.
With a background in communication, marketing and business management, alongside hands-on experience in high-pressure production environments, Chané brings both creative intuition and strategic rigour to every project. Ascension Agency was built on this belief: that great brands don't just exist, they rise. Today, Ascension collaborates with national and international brands, entrepreneurs and purpose-driven organisations to create content that is seen, felt, trusted and remembered.
