Film Lab is a full-service production company that can take your project from start to finish. Our collection of directors, cinematographers, editors, and animators are all storytellers at heart. We’re passionate about our craft and we’d love to share this passion with you.
WE BELIEVE IN TELLING THE STORIES THAT NEED TO BE TOLD, AND TELLING THEM IN THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE.
Whether commercial videos, documentaries, narrative films, or animated shorts, we adapt to the unique needs of all of our clients, big or small. We specialize in story-based content, but we love thinking outside the box for just about everything else. We also work here and abroad, on big budget sets or run-and-gun shoots. We’ve got the people for the job.

We begin with a strong concept. We love working with clients who’ve got ideas they want to share. We plot out the storyboards, scout for locations, and find the perfect cast for the job.
All our projects begin with a strong foundation. With our clients, we define and determine the scope of work and set the necessary budgets. We also write content scripts or project directions if necessary.

Finally, we bring in the big guns for editing, animation, color grading, and sound mixing for the perfect film. Here’s where everything comes together for a Film Lab original.
Here, we create and we capture. We work within the allotted number of production days, crew size, and cameras determined during the concept state.
