Most brand content gets scrolled past. Not because the budget was too small, but because there was no reason to care. Every audience we've grown started with the same question a film starts with: why should anyone watch this?

Organic Reach · First 9 Days
Bot or Not · Launch

Uploaded to YouTube in late June 2026 and shared once on r/Filmmakers. With zero paid spend, the post became #2 of the day and the audience followed the film across platforms. The demand question investors ask of any concept, answered with data.

IMDb · Grand Jury Award
Off Rip

A feature film made story-first on an independent budget: Grand Jury Award at Gasparilla, now on Apple TV pre-order. The same discipline goes into every brand piece we cut.

The Director

"The best content
is made by people who care
about the frame."

Jadon Cal Fitzpatrick is a filmmaker, director, and the founder of New Terrain Creative. His work has screened at Tribeca, Telluride, and Gasparilla, where his debut feature took home the Grand Jury Award. He builds NTC on that same foundation: cinematic intention, technical depth, and a story-first philosophy applied to every project, regardless of length or format.

NTC operates between Los Angeles and Tampa with a full production kit, in-house post, and a lean crew structure built for premium output without overhead bloat.

The Strategist

"The craft opens the door.
The relationship keeps it open."

Meghan Carrasquillo has spent two decades as a performer, and the last seven years bringing that instinct to film, in front of the camera and behind it. She wrote and co-directed Bot or Not, and stars in Stiletto, acquired by The Horror Section and hitting theaters this October. As an actor, she took home Best Actress at the New York Movie Awards for her role as Gina in The Squad (2023), with a nomination at the Florence Film Awards for the same performance.

At New Terrain she's the other half of the engine: client relations, B2B and social management for partner brands, and creative strategy in equal measure, backed by a wide network of industry relationships that keeps every project moving.

Made like a film.
Priced like it works.

I
Concept & Story

Before a camera turns on, we figure out what makes people choose you, then build every shot around it. No generic b-roll packages, no "we'll find it in the edit." Every project starts knowing exactly what it needs to say and who it needs to move.

II
Production

Director-led shoots where the person behind the camera is the same one who built the plan. No handoffs, no gaps in vision, and one shoot day designed to capture weeks of content.

III
Post & Delivery

In-house edit, color, and sound, delivered in every format your marketing runs: vertical, square, wide, cutdowns, captions. Done when it performs, not just when it's pretty. Days, not months.

The Difference
Why New Terrain?
The typical video guy
  • Shoots the footage, hands you a hard drive, disappears
  • One deliverable per shoot; every cutdown costs extra
  • You get files, not a plan
  • A gear renter with a camera and a day rate
  • Books out weeks ahead, ghosts on fast turnarounds
New Terrain Creative
  • Full pipeline: shot, edited, colored, captioned, delivered ready to post
  • 40 deliverables a month on retainer, cutdowns included
  • Every project starts knowing what it needs to say and who it needs to move
  • A working filmmaker: festival wins and a feature headed to Apple TV
  • You never chase an edit, write a hook, or manage a freelancer again
