New Media Collaboration

Building the Future of Feature Film Production

Carbon Arc Media is actively evaluating AI-driven filmmaking tools, virtual production technologies, and new media platforms for integration into our production and post-production pipeline. If you're building technology that serves real feature film production, we want to hear from you.

Technology That Serves the Film

We've delivered 40+ features to distributors including Netflix, Lionsgate, Amazon, A24, and Hulu. That experience has taught us exactly where new technology can accelerate production and where it creates risk. We evaluate every tool through the lens of: does this help us deliver a finished, commercially viable feature film?

We're not interested in demos or pitch decks. We're interested in tools that work in production today, or are close enough that a real-world pilot makes sense. If your technology can demonstrably reduce cost, compress timelines, or expand creative possibility for independent feature films, there's a conversation to have.

What We're Looking At

We're evaluating emerging technologies across the full production pipeline. Here's where we see the most immediate opportunity for collaboration.

AI-Assisted Post-Production

Automated conform, AI color matching, dialogue enhancement, noise reduction, automated QC, and intelligent asset management for delivery pipelines.

Generative Visual Effects

AI-driven VFX for independent budgets: background replacement, de-aging, crowd generation, environment extension. Delivery-spec quality.

Virtual Production

LED volume, real-time rendering, and virtual location tools that are practical for indie feature budgets, not just tentpole studio workflows.

AI Script & Story Tools

Script analysis, coverage automation, schedule optimization, and story development tools that support (not replace) human creative decisions.

📄

Automated Deliverables

Tools that accelerate legal delivery, metadata generation, subtitle/caption workflows, and platform-specific packaging for international distribution.

🎥

Production Intelligence

Budget forecasting, incentive analysis, scheduling optimization, and data-driven production planning tools built for real film production workflows.

What We Bring to a Collaboration

We're not passive evaluators. When we partner with a technology company, we put their tools into actual production.

Active feature film pipeline with real projects to pilot and validate your technology

30+ years combined experience in production, post-production, and delivery

Direct relationships with distributors, financiers, and completion guarantors

Real-world delivery specs and QC requirements from major platforms

Structured feedback loop: we'll tell you what works, what doesn't, and why

Case study and co-marketing opportunities for successful integrations

Ongoing collaborations will be listed here as partnerships are formalized.
