Firewood

Bleeding edge tools and classically trained film production at economic scale and speed.

Welcome to Firewood

What we make

Film grade, at a fraction of the cost and the time.

Written, directed, cut, graded and delivered by a filmmaker, using an AI pipeline as the camera department. Three formats, one engine underneath all of them.

Sizzles, trailer, social media campaigns, real estate showcases, documentaries, start ups, media bundles, product demos and more. Visually engaging storytelling and content can help all businesses.

The craft

Classically trained

UNCSA, then the Kanbar Institute at NYU Tisch. Ten years across film, television, documentary, commercial work, political media and live events.

Proprietary pipeline

A pipeline we own

A multi model generation stack driven by agentic infrastructure we built and run ourselves, so no single vendor sets our cost floor.

End to end

Everything in house

Written, directed, cut and graded by the same people, so a note goes back into the film instead of into a queue at a vendor.

Format one

Short form series

Fifteen to sixty seconds, vertical, built for Reels, TikTok and Shorts. Scripted, sourced and captioned.

Format two

Mid form film

Two to five minutes, made to sit on a website, open a meeting, or carry a campaign.

Format three

Sizzle and campaign

The piece that gets something funded. A proposal, a grant, a raise, a room you need to win.

Selected work

Campaigns, launches, live events. Essentially everything. Shot like film. At economic scale and speed.

What we do

The newest tools in film, run by classically trained filmmakers.

A director led studio that pairs generative AI with real film craft to produce cinema grade video at a fraction of the cost and time it has ever taken.

Firewood vision

Bring your vision to life.

Firewood was built around one simple idea: bring your vision to life. What a small team can put on a screen has changed, and that lets us make cinematic, film grade work with a level of speed, affordability and creative control that has always needed much larger budgets, teams and timelines.

That changes who gets to tell a great story. A brand can see an idea before committing to an expensive production. A small business can make something that would have been out of reach. A storyteller can experiment, revise and refine a scene without every change costing days and thousands of dollars. Better tools mean more creativity, more control, and fewer things standing between an idea and the screen.

Comanchería

Untold Comanche history on your phone.

For a hundred and fifty years the Southern Plains belonged to the Comanche. They were the reason Spain stopped moving north, the reason Mexico could not hold Texas, and the finest light cavalry on the continent. It is one of the largest stories in American history and it is told almost nowhere.

So we are telling it, on the phone, where people actually are. Not a documentary nobody finishes and not a museum panel nobody reads, but the story cut the way the feed is cut, at the length attention actually runs.

Brand partnerships

What do you need to bring to life?

New launch? Film? New product? An event, a campaign, a building nobody has seen yet. Almost any business is better off with storytelling people actually want to watch, and that is the work.

We move fast, we scale the economics to the job, and we write, direct and cut everything in house.

Let’s chat. Tell us what it is.

Film and television

Features and series, ten million and up.

Firewood is built for narrative features and limited series in the ten million dollar range and up. Histories at the scale they deserve, researched before a frame is designed, and shown to the people whose history it is.

The way in is the same every time. Research first, then a proof of concept that lets a room feel the film before it exists, then the production. Daniel runs the structure and the capital. Sean directs.
