About Us

best wift female producer

Iris Arc Pictures was founded on a rainy afternoon in Melbourne, Australia, over a glass of wine and a board game. It has since grown into a company that acts as an international production liaison, supporting those who wish to bridge the gap between themselves and film locations around the globe. We do so by utilizing our strong global industry connections, in all areas of production, distribution marketing strategy and sales.

Iris Arc Pictures is an inclusive company and is proud to be a part of the diverse narrative of the world around us, be that in the stories we tell or the people that lead and tell those stories. We champion change in the industry, with representation of everyone on and in the content we create. A key focus is female stories told on camera and the incredible people behind the camera that are integral to bringing these stories to life.

With teams in Melbourne and Sydney, Australia, and New York, Los Angeles and Austin, USA. The core team proudly boasts over a combined 25 years of experience in the Australian and International commercial, digital and short film landscape.

We are in the process of packaging several shorts, feature length narratives and documentaries and welcome all opportunities to work with other ambitiously creative people. When it comes to contracted work we are here to get straight to the point – whatever you need, wherever you need it, we are here to help make it happen!

The Founder

As an internationally recognized, award winning producer, Lauren Simpson has spent the last ten years working and honing her producorial acumen by immersing herself in a stunningly diverse and inspiring slate of projects. These projects cover the length and breadth of the industry across all deliverable platforms, from boutique short form narrative projects that have received a wide national release, to large scale campaigns with A-List talent and creatives for international digital distribution, and almost every other conceivable type of project and deliverable in between.

- Lauren Simpson -

She has always thrived in high-pressure environments and loves to work with diverse and passionate collaborators from all walks of life, regardless of the project scale, to bring the best, highest quality version of their creative vision from the page, to the screen. Most recently her work can be seen on the Cuban feature documentary, Latigo, with internationally renowned director, comedian and actor Simon Palomares.

In order for her to directly pursue her global producorial ambitions of acting as an international film producer, she founded the international production company, Iris Arc Pictures, to which she applies her skills and qualifications as an MBA to serve as a consultant and liaison for clients and companies globally. Iris Arc Pictures was successfully debuted at the 2018 American Film Market and saw her build a strong and diverse network in the global filmmaking community.

2019 then commenced with a highly successful production run with clients such as Rooster Teeth Productions, Fade In Creative and Safari Global, all intensive, complex and unique projects with amazing collaborators with which she continues to have a strong working relationship.

Her background in high stakes workplaces has given her the ability to quickly, succinctly, efficiently, and as is often the case simultaneously, manage each project from the inside out, collaborating with all the stakeholders to bring the content to life. It was this passion that lead her to be one of the co-founders of Lunacraft Productions in 2015. During that time under her leadership as CEO the company facilitated a wide range of production services, inclusive of, but not limited to: short films, documentaries, corporate videos, commercials and events. She is particularly proud  to have produced many exciting projects including international content for some of the world’s largest pop culture companies such as Rooster Teeth and Blizzard Entertainment, as well as the award winning Lost & Found, Top 15 finalist Flytrap and Tropfest Top 50 finalist Lenny.
 
But what drives her most is what drives most people in our industry – pure love of stories and storytelling. A drive she discovered when she was young and developed and honed with every position and project she has worked in or collaborated on since. She has learned, assimilated and applied something from every collaboration, client and opportunity and is excited to be striving forward with a number of new projects that are being packaged for the international market.
