WHAT WE DO
Supernaut Films is a New York–based production company specializing in broadcast documentaries and cinematic storytelling for small businesses.
We support UK and international productions filming in the U.S., providing field production, cinematography, and logistical support for networks including BBC, PBS, National Geographic, HBO Max, and Discovery+. We understand the demands of overseas shoots and help international teams capture authentic American stories with clarity and care.
Supernaut Films is fully equipped with professional camera, lighting, and sound gear—ready to support productions of any scale, from small vérité crews to multi-day network shoots.
We also create documentary films for small businesses that make real products—because we believe craftsmanship and honest work deserve the same storytelling quality as broadcast television.
Whether supporting global productions or local makers, our focus is the same: real people, real stories, beautifully told.
