Let’s Work Together.

Screenplay Writing

If you have an idea for a great film or a novel you need adapted, our screenwriting services include world-building, research, outlining, and writing for a production-ready screenplay. We specialize in feature films and also create intriguing pilots for episodic content.

Directing

The right director for your project will love the genre, embody the theme, and grasp the technical and artistic tools needed to express your story, while wisely using the available budget.

Video Editing

With a multi-faceted creative in the editor’s chair, the final stages of the post-production process will seem effortless. We use Davinci Resolve for editing, graphics, and color correction. Minor graphics (lower thirds, titles, basic transitions, etc,) are included in every project; detailed graphics will have an additional cost.

Screenplay Consulting

With deep experience across every stage of filmmaking, we help refine screenplays at any level— whether it’s a debut script from a first-time writer or an award-winning script written for Hollywood. Our approach makes high-caliber storytelling accessible to independent budgets. You’ll walk away with a clear understanding of what is needed to bring your vision to life, from pre-production through post.

Indie Filmmaking Consulting

There are dozens of departments and tasks needed to complete a high-quality film. Mastering all of these areas takes years, focus, and a noticeable amount of artistic obsession. Allow our experience to help guide you on all types of productions in all budgets.

Post Production Mixing & Sound Design

Our mixers and sound designers have decades of experience in multimedia sound, from pop music mixing and podcasting to detailed video game and film foley and sound design. We can create intimate mixes that draw you in and vast soundscapes that blow you away. Our experience grants us speed, detail, and reliability. Allow us to give your project's audio the respect and shine it deserves.
