Exit Strategy is a storytelling company dedicated to feature films in the $1M–$10M budget range. We champion original narratives grounded in human experience and creative vision, leveraging advanced technology to deliver high-production-value projects to a global audience.
Simultaneously, we operate as a technology incubator, developing filmmaking software and AI tools in real-time. By solving problems directly in the field, we ensure we are creating products that truly meet the needs of filmmakers.
We do not seek to replace the magic of filmmaking through human collaboration with generative AI. Instead, we use technology to unlock potential for a new generation of storytellers. Unless we are utilizing an LLM built on our own legally procured data, our focus remains on non-generative support.
By strategically deploying—and often developing—cutting-edge technology throughout the pipeline, we dismantle the traditional barriers that keep ambitious, original narratives trapped in development hell. We break the equation that links low budgets to low quality, allowing more people to tell better stories.
We are moving away from the traditional, top-heavy indie model. We utilize leaner crews who are compensated better, empowering them to do their best work, while producers take an active, hands-on role in production.
We integrate AI-driven support tools into operational workflows to maximize efficiency without encroaching on the creative process and human touch.
Film is a collaboration. Fundamentally we rely on the expertise and artistic expression of every team member to create a final product that everyone is proud to stand behind.
"Stories by humans, with a digital edge" is our methodology. We ensure that innovative voices—whether quiet or loud—have the resources to compete in a marketplace hungry for authentic, bold, and fresh storytelling.
