Behind the work

In the room

Lantern Pictures on set — camera and crew at work
A slate on the Lantern Pictures set

Small crew, senior hands, and an unreasonable amount of care for the frame. However far the budget stretches, the people who pitched the work are the people in the room when it gets made.

What we do

End to end,
in one room.

01

Development

Story, structure, and the hard early questions. We figure out what a thing is before a camera ever turns on — so the shoot serves the film, not the other way around.

02

Production

A small, senior crew who've done this for years. Documentary, narrative, and branded work, shot with the same care whether the budget is large or lean.

03

Post

Edit, color, sound, and finish under one roof. The cut is where the film is really written, and we treat it that way — patiently, and until it's right.

The studio

We keep the crew small so the storytelling stays close to the people who care about it most.

Lantern started with a simple frustration: too many good stories, told carelessly. So we built a studio that takes on a handful of projects a year and gives each one the room it needs.

You work with the people making the work — no producers-of-producers, no handoffs to a house you've never met. Just a senior team that sweats the frame, the cut, and the last ten percent nobody else bothers with.
