The system isn’t broken.
It’s just not built for most people.
The Australian film industry tells emerging creatives to work for free “for exposure,” self-produce without support, compete instead of collaborate, wait years for permission and doors to open.
The result? Talent burns out. Stories stall. Audiences disappear.
We decided to stop waiting!
We make elevated horror and genre films and train the next wave of cast and crew, reinvesting profits into people instead of prestige.
Films fund training
Training feeds production
Productions grow careers

SCALE INTO FEATURES
Our feature slate pulls from the community we’ve already built. Long-term collaborators, not last-minute hires.
REINVEST & REPEAT
Merch, hires, and films power the next cycle. The ecosystem sustains itself while the community upskills and provides regular paid work.
This is not a shortcut. It’s a loop.
IF YOU’RE AN ACTOR
You don’t need to self-produce in isolation. Our Bright Llama cohort creates cinematic genre work with pro crews.
IF YOU’RE CREW
Learn on real sets with real responsibility. Get mentored by professionals with 10+ years of experience.
SUPPORT THE MOVEMENT
If you want to support the movement. Wear it. Share it. Fund the future.
IF YOU’RE A FILMMAKER
Or collaborator. Bring your ideas. Hire our space. Hire our equipment. Build with us.
Our slate includes elevated horror and genre projects in development and production, supported by industry partners, markets, and funding bodies.
But more importantly: Our films are built by people who grow with us. Not extracted from, then discarded.
If you’re looking for your people... you might already be home!
We stand for:
Community over competition
Transparency over mystique
Care without coddling
Genre without apology
Growth without exploitation
This is not a club. It’s a commitment to changing the film industry.
