Solaris Films

“Before we make it look good, we figure out why it should exist.”

We makefilms.

And a few other things.

Good ideas.We like those.

  • Some come from us.
  • Some come from our clients.
  • Some start as a half-written WhatsApp message at 11:47 PM.

We take those ideas, find the story hiding inside them, and figure out what they could become.

Usually, that's a film. Sometimes, it's something else.

“Good enough”is a terriblecreative direction.

So we tend to keep going.

Not every project needs to be a masterpiece. But every project deserves a proper thought behind it.

It started withtwo filmmakers.

Solaris began with two people who wanted to make films for a living, and eventually realised that meant building a company around it.

So, how does this work?

We don't have a formula.We have a way of thinking.

Every brand, every audience and every brief comes with its own set of problems.

So before we pick up a camera, we figure out what we're actually trying to say, who we're saying it to, and why anyone should care.

Then we make the film.

01

Find the story

Before we write a word or pick up a camera, we get nosy. What's the business trying to achieve? Who are we talking to? What's interesting about this brand? What's the actual problem we're solving? Then we find the story hiding somewhere in all of that.

02

Build the film

Now we get to the fun part. Scripts become storyboards. Storyboards become locations, actors, cameras, lights, drones, animation, chaos and hopefully a little bit of magic. We build the right team and the right production around the idea, not the other way around.

03

Make it worth watching

The shoot is over. The film isn't. This is where we obsess over the things nobody notices individually but everybody feels: the cut, the sound, the music, the grade, the VFX, the tiny detail that makes a shot work. Then we watch it again. And probably change something.

Have a brief?

Great.

Have half a brief?

We can work with that.

Have no idea where to start?

Even better.

Let's figure it out.
