The Team

Let‘s talk business.

We have developed an innovative system for independent film production and sales that aims to deliver value to shareholders whilst mitigating the risks typically associated in the film production industry.

Our model allows our business to sell a full slate of six to eight films at one time, in effect ‘bundling’ our projects for distributors. This means that where the most attractive film in the slate is for sale and desired by distributors that smaller projects can be also be sold. The beauty of our model is that micro-budget projects are sold alongside the bigger budget films, saving them from having to go through their own sales process.

6 movies are produced and sold as a bundle.

Supply driven streaming services buy the entire slate.
