a point of view.

Arx Pictures is an independent film production studio based in New York. We make documentaries, commercial films and videos tailored to social media for artists, cultural institutions and brands.

Our work explores people, places and creative processes—from an artist’s studio to the making of a product. Led by Saheer Umar and Asya Gorbacheva, we combine creative direction with practical production experience. We plan, shoot and edit films with a clear narrative, a considered visual language and an understanding of their audience.

What we do

Creative development & direction
We develop the story, visual approach and production plan in close conversation with our collaborators.
Film & video production
Documentaries, artist portraits, brand films and behind-the-scenes stories, filmed with attention to people and process.
Editing & post-production
We shape footage into a clear narrative, bringing together image, pacing and sound.
Video for social media
Original short-form videos and edits of longer films, tailored to the format, platform and audience.
