Producer Steve Bannerman, former head of Amazon MGM's international originals post-production and VFX, has observed how streaming platforms and accessible technology have revolutionized independent filmmaking.

With post-production tools and VFX capabilities now within reach of smaller budgets, indie creators can produce cinema-quality content and reach global audiences through short-form and digital platforms—fundamentally democratizing an industry once dominated by major studios.
