About The Factory

By Artists. For Artists.

The Indie Film Factory was built to encourage others to create motion pictures and video content. Whether it be for developing marketing videos for a business, or making a feature film for a streaming platform, we focus on storytelling through the language of cinema. As a family of filmmakers in Las Vegas, we know what it’s like to be on the outside Hollywood. We understand what it takes to be competitive and resourceful. When we started this studio, our aim was to create a unique and affordable rental space for filmmakers, and a multimedia agency that could elevate any project it touched. A decade later we can say that we’ve fulfilled that mission. We have grown our network of clients to include major brands, influencers and other filmmakers in Las Vegas just like us.

Filmmakers by trade.

In addition to being a full service multimedia agency, we are filmmakers by trade. In addition to making content for others, we are a producer of original feature length films. Our movies stream on various video-on-demand platforms across the world. Our team of Emmy © Award filmmakers apply that filmmaking gusto to creating high-level content for our clients. We are proficient in keeping budgets on target, and utilizing the latest in technology to create cinematic results. We also understand the inhearent challenges of indie filmmaking and pride ourselves at being able to help other aspiring creatives find their voices.

The Indie Manifesto

The Indie Film Factory is:

For those who are done with complicated and expensive studios.

For those who have had enough gatekeepers blocking the path to tell your stories.

For the dreamers, entrepreneurs, the backyard filmmakers, and the underdog story tellers.

We serve the artists who deserve to have their work seen, without having to take out a second mortgage to do so.
