ReelShort, the global leader in vertical microdramas, was expanding production into Canada and needed a partner who could deliver scripted, social-first content at scale. They required a production company that could:
• Adapt long-form storytelling craft to vertical, internet-native formats.
• Manage rapid-fire production timelines without compromising quality.
• Handle the cultural and linguistic nuances of launching both French- and English-language features.
Corbin Visual became ReelShort’s first Canadian production partner, taking full ownership of end-to-end execution:
• Script translation, adaptation, and casting across multiple languages.
• Full production management: budgeting, locations, wardrobe, hair/makeup, and crew.
• Directed a three-camera, vertical-first shoot ,capturing 10+ pages per day over a compressed 10-day schedule.
•Delivered dailies for overseas review and completed final edits—including subtitling and localization—within 45–60 days.
Our role extended beyond execution, we acted as a strategic partner, helping ReelShort adapt their production model to Canadian realities while ensuring the content stayed true to their brand and resonated with new audiences.
• Produced ReelShort’s first-ever French-language feature, which became their highest-viewed international launch to date.
• Expanded their reach into new audience segments, creating fresh revenue streams.
• Proved that high-volume, fast-turnaround scripted content can maintain quality when handled by the right team.
• Established Corbin Visual as ReelShort’s trusted Canadian partner, not just creating content but also helping champion and expand the global vertical drama movement.
