We close for a week in the winter and again in the summer.
  • We're fully remote. Newfangled Studios flips the script on remote work. We're a tight-knit crew that thrives despite the distance. From hilarious Slack channels to unforgettable in-person retreats, we connect and celebrate on the regular. Here, you'll feel included and empowered to bring your best self - wherever you call home.
