Video production studio
Cinematic video for brands with a story to tell.
Big-screen craft at the speed of social.
Your brand deserves more than stock footage and templates. Mintaka Pictures creates commercials, product films, animation and social campaigns with the look of a big-budget production, directed and finished with a filmmaker's eye.

Video production, end to end
From a single product hero shot to a full campaign, we match the style to the story. One studio, every look.
Product films
Luxury hero shots for fragrance, watches, footwear and anything on your shelf, lit like a high-end commercial.
Automotive
Rain-slicked city streets, open desert highways and studio reveals, with no permits or road closures.
Animation
Hand-drawn, stop-motion or 3D feature style. One brief, in whatever look your brand needs.
Food & restaurant spots
Vertical social ads that stop the scroll and make people hungry in the first second.
VFX & action
Creatures, spectacle and blockbuster set pieces that once required a studio budget.
Characters & mascots
A signature character your audience remembers, ready to star in every campaign that follows.
Why brands choose Mintaka
Traditional production quality, without the traditional production timeline.
See it before you commit
We build a spec version of your spot first, so you judge real footage instead of a pitch deck.
Speed without compromise
No crews, locations or reshoot days. Concepts become finished cuts in days, and new versions follow quickly.
Tailored to your brand
Your products, colors and voice built into every frame, whether the look is photoreal, animated or somewhere in between.
End-to-end delivery
Concept, script, production, edit, original score, sound mix and 4K finishing in one place, delivered for every screen from TV to Reels.
More content, without the production drag
Most brands need more video than a traditional production budget allows. Our process closes that gap, giving you cinematic content at the pace your channels demand.

Every project starts with an idea worth watching. We develop scripts, visual directions and test shots together, so you can see the concept working before production begins.
Commercial production
Broadcast-quality spots for TV, streaming and pre-roll, with the lighting, camera movement and polish of a traditional shoot and none of the logistics.
Social media campaigns
Vertical and square content built for Reels, TikTok and Shorts. Multiple variations for testing, and fresh assets whenever your audience needs something new.
Brand characters
Mascots and recurring characters designed once and kept consistent across every campaign, season and platform.
Post-production & finishing
Editing, color grading, original music, sound design and 4K upscaling, handled in-house so every piece leaves the studio finished.
The tools are new.
The standards aren't.
Every Mintaka piece is written, designed and cut by people who care how it lands. Our process lets us do more of it, faster.

Frequently asked questions
Do you use AI?
Yes. Generative AI is a core part of how we produce, and it is what lets us deliver cinematic work without a crew, a location or a big production budget. We use it for imagery, motion and original music, and we treat it as a set of production tools rather than a replacement for filmmaking. Every project is still written, designed shot by shot, edited, color graded and sound mixed by people.
Which tools do you use?
We choose the strongest tool for each job. That currently includes Seedance for video, GPT Image for design and reference work, Suno for original music, Topaz for upscaling and DaVinci Resolve for editing and finishing. The field moves quickly, so we test new tools constantly and adopt them when they raise the quality of the work.
Does it really match traditional production quality?
Yes. Every Mintaka project is scripted, designed shot by shot and developed across many takes, then edited, color graded, scored and mixed by hand. The reels above show the standard you can expect.
How do you keep costs down?
Our process removes the biggest line items in a traditional shoot: crews, locations, equipment, travel and reshoot days. Pricing depends on length, style and the number of versions you need, and we provide a clear quote after the first call.
How quickly can you deliver?
Short-form spots are typically measured in days rather than the weeks or months a traditional production takes. We confirm a delivery date on the first call.
What kinds of projects are the best fit?
Commercials, product launches, social campaigns, brand films, animated explainers and anything that calls for spectacle or a look that would be expensive to shoot. If you are unsure, bring the idea to a consultation and we will tell you honestly whether we are the right fit.
Can you match our brand and feature our real products?
Yes. We build detailed references from your product photos, logo and brand guidelines, so your product, packaging and colors appear on screen the way they look in real life.
Who owns the finished video?
Usage rights are agreed in writing before production begins, so you know exactly where, and for how long, you can run your video.
What do you need from us to get started?
A short conversation, your logo and brand colors, and photos of your product or location if you have them. We handle everything else, from the script to the final mix.
