Big Red Barn Films is the joint venture of ACADEMY AWARD® NOMINATED filmmakers
Jennifer Redfearn and Tim Metzger.
Our first production together was the award-winning 2010 documentary “Sun Come Up”, which earned an OSCAR nomination and made its broadcast debut on HBO this fall.
Our freelance work has taken us around the globe to over 20 countries where we’ve filmed stories about everything from ancient engineering to climate change refugees. Over the past decade, we’ve produced content for the finest outlets in television and online distribution including HBO, PBS, National Geographic, Discovery, History Channel, and MediaStorm.
Our Expertise
We specialize in a character-driven and immersive style of storytelling. Though we often work on difficult subject matter, at the heart of our approach are stories that move audiences with humor, struggle, and triumph. We’re skilled at working with a range of budgets from multi-million dollar series to low-budget productions.
