Carbon Arc Media provides delivery management, documentation compilation, and production services. We are not a law firm, do not provide legal advice or legal representation, and do not practice law. For matters requiring legal counsel, we recommend working with qualified entertainment attorneys.
With over 30 years of combined experience in production, post, and film finance, we provide integrated support across every phase of feature filmmaking, from prep through post, from structured finance through final delivery.
The principals of Carbon Arc Media have delivered 40+ feature films to distributors including Netflix, Hulu, Lionsgate, Amazon Studios, Universal, and across 25+ international territories. We manage the operational demands of production with continuity, accuracy, and accountability.
Every project is led by experienced principals with a focus on execution, accountability, and platform acceptance. We're built for the professionals carrying creative, financial, and delivery responsibility, serving as the connective tissue between a finished film and a finished product.
