Backroom Productions

The name suggests we are find up and coming talent and produce on a small scale.

Our logo/title card suggest we are from a back room such as this. We take risks and find new opportunities to rise.

What we do is find lesser known, or even first time, directors, writers, actors and other crew members to make low budget British films.

What Do We Do?Handle Budgets and SchedulesMaking sure we have enough money for what were making, and are organised in what were doing, when, where and with who.Supply and Organize Cast & CrewWe go looking for people best suited to the job that havent worked on major motion pictures. This is important as it maintains our companies goal of supporting the up and coming.Plan and Make the actual filmWe ensure all the post production of the film is ready for the shoot, we then ensure everything is being done correctly during the shoots as well as during the post-production.Make Partnerships with Film CompaniesArrange for larger companies to help fund the film for a section of the profit.
