Lotus Pictures

Lotus Pictures is a New York City video marketing agency and commercial creative studio founded in 2014. Its work combines cinematic filmmaking with business storytelling, helping enterprise, technology and consumer brands communicate through brand films, product campaigns, customer stories and digital marketing content. The studio supports clients across North America and internationally.

From strategy to finished content

The studio works across the production process, beginning with creative strategy, concept development, scriptwriting and storyboarding. Its live-action capabilities include digital cinematography, multi-camera production, corporate interviews and commercial shoots. Post-production services encompass editing, color grading, sound design, visual effects and finishing.

Animation and motion design form another part of its offering, including 2D and 3D graphics, kinetic typography and animated product explainers. The studio also produces documentary and narrative projects and offers corporate photography, including executive headshots and commercial stills. These capabilities support a range of formats, from customer case studies and testimonials to product demonstrations and sizzle reels.

Enterprise campaigns and independent film

Much of Lotus Pictures’ commercial portfolio serves enterprise software, cloud computing, SaaS, artificial intelligence and other technology businesses. Its work also extends to HR and payroll platforms, consumer retail, media and communications.

Projects include brand and product videos for NetApp, customer testimonial work for Airtable, an animated explainer for Contentful and marketplace content for ADP. Its SAP work includes the SAP Business AI Citrosuco and SAP Business AI Cirque du Soleil campaigns. Other supplied portfolio examples include Daily Pay for Target, directed by Mike Aspite.

Alongside its corporate production work, Lotus Pictures was the primary production company for Punta Cana, a 2018 short film directed by Andree Ljutica and produced by Mike Aspite. The film screened at the Palm Springs International ShortFest, reflecting the studio’s involvement in independent cinema as well as commercial storytelling.
