Zebra Pictures is an award winning independent film and video production company based in Toronto, Canada. We pledge:
* to tell a great story, delivering exciting, compelling narratives to a broad audience;
* to create a work environment where everyone is treated with respect and dignity;
* to work with honest, positive people and companies with an eye on the bottom line;
* to focus on combining creative achievement with financial success;
* to advise and guide newcomers to the entertainment business and encourage people of all ethnicities and walks of life to explore their potential to the fullest;
* to keep alive the magic in our work, the sense that anything and everything is possible.
Zebra Pictures’ guiding principle is simple: we believe that the best films emerge from a playful, co-creative and nurturing atmosphere. Everyone on our team must be treated with respect and every effort must be made to maintain the contentment of our crew. By following this principle, we create an environment that allows team members the freedom and responsibility to contribute their talent to make the final product the best that we can.
Our model for success will challenge the conventional perspective of the Canadian production industry and raise the profile of Canadian production internationally. The team behind Zebra Pictures successfully delivers projects on time and on budget, and has established a track record that affords the company several competitive advantages.
Zebra Pictures has service produced location shoots for international companies. The Canadian government offers significant tax breaks as well as additional savings with international co-production agreements. The Canadian dollar and healthcare system allows us to produce at significantly lower prices giving us a competitive edge. Our large talent pool, diverse cultures and wide variety of urban and rural locations allow the Toronto area to substitute for almost any location worldwide.
One of our greatest strengths is our people. We have built and nurtured strong industry relationships on all levels of production, from industry suppliers to skilled crew members. Our crew work with us on an ongoing basis and send a constant stream of high quality referrals our way. We have good relations with top agencies and access to key talent. Our production team is positive, proactive and solution focused.
Zebra Pictures packages groups of films to create a diverse portfolio that will reduce the risk to investors by spreading their investment out over multiple projects. The company intends to balance the production quality of film with the low production cost of Digital Video. Keeping abreast of the latest technologies, we expect that a least one picture per year will be shot digitally.
The marketability of our films is one of our foremost concerns. We pursue intelligent, original scripts that are also commercially viable and in genres that have a proven track record of high returns. The quality of our scripts will lure high profile Canadian talent to work at home once again.
