Iris Arc Pictures

Bold Stories. Unmatched Creativity.

Iris Arc Pictures was founded on a rainy afternoon in Melbourne, Australia, over a glass of wine and a board game. We produce thought-provoking and socially resonant narratives across film, television, commercial and digital platforms. As a company Iris Arc Pictures is committed to championing underrepresented voices, particularly those working within genre storytelling.

About us

Iris Arc Pictures is a forward-thinking production company, dedicated to championing inclusivity and representation both on-screen and behind the scenes.

With a strong focus on elevating the voices and stories of women and gender-diverse practitioners, the company is committed to fostering diversity across all aspects of production.

As President of Women in Film & Television Victoria (WIFT Vic) and a Board Member of Women in Film & Television International (WIFTI), founder Lauren Simpson leads with a passion for advocacy, actively working to shape a more equitable industry. Lauren’s leadership in these organisations deeply influences Iris Arc Pictures’ ethos, ensuring that the company’s projects engage with underrepresented voices at a grassroots level.
