ON THE ROCKS FILMS was born originally over a toast of whiskey as a way to help actors take more control over garnering quality & original content for their acting reels. Since then, it has grown into an award-winning boutique NYC based production company that specializes in storyline & narrative-based projects. 

Beyond our self-produced films, we have been hired to work on numerous other feature and short form films, actor reels, dance narratives, music videos & corporate promos.
