Witchcraft is a film and television production company run by filmmakers Noah Lang and Rod Blackhurst.
Our industry has a blind spot.
There is an entire creative class out there who is overlooked by systemic institutional failures. A creative class that has the talent, work ethic, drive, and love for storytelling and craft that can make iconic cinema and TV. And they need partners to help them achieve their dreams.
We founded Witchcraft as a tastemaker label to live by the ethos we’ve long adhered to; send the elevator back down and be a part of making the entertainment industry more egalitarian.
It’s about the work and finding creative, crafty, and economical ways to tell undeniable stories.
Our slate will always reflect that ethos.
We are scrappy, motivated, and completely and utterly in love with filmmaking and the impact that great storytelling can have.
Witchcraft is our investment in that belief.
