OUR MiSSiON
Thirteen Universe prides itself on being able to tactfully identify and pinpoint where the inner workings of the industry thrive, and where they fall short. This professional realm and the positive progression it has on human-culture is driven at it’s core by creatives and production workers - many of which are constantly faced with dwindling, sub-par employment standards. At Thirteen Universe, we are dedicated to pursuing proper wages and equal opportunity for our employees and collaborators in a way that cultivates a vibrant environment where all our community members thrive.
Thirteen Universe is constantly stimulated and motivated by people who create, innovate, and evolve with their crafts; We experience genuine joy and reward in finding and investing in these creative innovators who make this world so much more colorful and inspiring to experience. Our dedication lies in investing time and development to foster heightened recognition, opportunities, and higher quality of treatment for these stellar individuals to explore and showcase their capabilities. Fifteen years is undoubtedly a considerable run in any profession, yet Adele and her team are just getting started in many aspects. We look forward to continuing our path of growth and learning to be better at what Thirteen Universe has always championed: creating shinier circumstances for our partners, audiences and everyone we employ.
