who we are
Midnight Lantern is a production company that champions artists through the creative, physical, and post-production processes. Rather than limit ourselves to any specific genre, we produce projects that stick in your mind and leave you craving more.
We value the people making the film and see them as more than a line item. While sets can often be fraught spaces of anxiety where the goal is to "make the day" (budgetarily and creatively), we must pause and ALWAYS remember this is done by humans. Creating a cherished film that withstands the test of time is amazing, but so should the journey for everyone making it. With this mindset, we build teams and sets with working conditions that help foster a sustainable and enriching experience.
