3IFM INDEPENDENT STUDIOS is the, independently owned and operated, dedicated cinematography division of RITUAL PICTURES, LLC. Our focus is on quality Indie film production with deep respect for time honored and traditional cinematic photography. We believe in film space, lens language, the power of story telling through lighting, strict technical expertise and on-the-set professionalism. We know that the Director of Photography (DP) has a great responsibility to the Director for visually representing the very essence of his or her imagination on film. Without this powerful artistry, there is no narrative story telling in this, highly competitive, day and age.

If you are in need of a DP for your Indie film production, CHRIS ARRINGTON is available for hire on outside productions. He will even cover his own air travel expenses to anywhere in the World and be on the set and ready to shoot within 24hrs. for domestic locations (within North America) and 48hrs. for overseas locations.

As Indie film-makers we are able to accommodate MOST reasonable film budgets. Your DP will arrive on set with a complete technical expertise of the production camera and lighting kits.

Additional Camera Operators and Lighting Technicians are not provided for outside productions at this time. Please contact CHRIS ARRINTON for details.
