Films built
to last.
Stories worth
the risk.

A San Francisco indie production company making documentaries, narrative features, and serial narratives that demand to be seen.

Documentaries, narrative features & serial narrative — quality over catalog

Origin & Mission

Correlated Images is a filmmaker-first production company based in San Francisco. We make documentaries, narrative feature films, and serial narratives — work that carries a perspective, takes a creative risk, and stays with the audience long after the credits roll.

We operate lean by design, not by constraint. A smaller footprint means total creative ownership. Every budget decision traces back to the film itself, never to a committee or a franchise obligation.

"Quality-driven indie cinema—films that have a perspective, take a risk, and stay with you."

Our Principles

How we approach
every film

These aren't values written for a pitch deck. They're the decisions we make every week when choosing what to develop, who to partner with, and how to spend the budget.

I

Creative vision before commercial safety

We greenlight work because it matters, not because it's low risk. The films that endure are the ones someone fought to make the right way.

II

Long-form as a discipline

Documentaries, narrative features, and serial narratives demand patience, craft, and a willingness to let the story breathe. We don't rush toward short-form because the market is there.

III

Lean is a philosophy

A small operation means every decision is intentional. No overhead, no franchise logic, no creative dilution. The work benefits from the constraints we choose.

01

Documentary
filmmaking

We develop and produce feature-length documentaries on subjects that warrant the long-form treatment. Real stories, real stakes, assembled with the care of fiction filmmaking. We look for projects where access + perspective creates something journalism can't.

02

Narrative
feature films

Original narrative features developed in-house and through partnerships with writers and directors whose voice we believe in. Character-driven, tonally specific, built for festival premieres and meaningful distribution — not for franchise potential.

03

Serial
narrative

Long-form storytelling across episodes — developed with the same cinematic intentionality as our features. We pursue serial projects where the scope of a story demands more than two hours: character arcs that compound, worlds that expand, and audiences that come back because the work earns it.
