Core Expertise

Financial consulting and creative development, focused on indie-scale feature films and series

Our focus is on international film and television projects that span Asia and North America. These include US projects shooting in Thailand, Chinese overseas productions, international co-productions, and international IP adaptations/translations. While we have worked on studio projects, we tend to focus on lower budgets, from $15m USD all the way down to micro-budget indie films. We like to get involved early, ensure the script and development is tailored to the region where it's being produced, take full advantage of the production value your location has to offer. Then we sculpt a financial structure that inspires confidence in your investors while securing cashflow to production. We believe that top-tier creativity is enabled by strong financial management and well-organized production plan.

Our advantage is our small, agile team with international connections and talent. We understand how to reach international audiences, how to produce on a budget, or pull together a larger production team when needed, and we have writers/developers with native fluency in English, Thai, and Chinese.
