Brightsword Productions Epic stories on an indie budget. Brightsword Productions is an independent film group based out of the mid-Willamette Valley.

Our ongoing mission is to produce films that break the "indie" mold and offer more production value and a bigger spectacle on a much smaller budget. But, in all that, our deeper goal is to present truth in ways you've never seen it before. Our most recent release is sci-fi web-series “Stormborn,” and we’re currently in post-production on high fantasy film “The Nine Isles: Chaos Crown.”
