ART RESEARCH PRODUCTIONS

Art Research Productions (ARP) is an audiovisual production company specializing in feature fiction films. It is based in Sinaïa in Romania and was founded in 2011 by Alec Aguletti, a film technician but also a screenwriter and director working in France.

The company remained dormant for several years but now, thanks to the professional development of Alec Aguletti and the arrival of Terry Xu, graduate of L'École Supérieure de Création Audiovisuelle in Paris, its activity is launched. Indeed, they are currently working on their first feature film, Le Sot du 7ème , and their coming to Cannes with the desire to share this event with other professionals. However, ARP's vocation does not stop there. At the same time, Art Research Productions was from the start designed to remain in keeping with Alec Aguletti's Romanian origins, as a bridge between France and Romania.

Cooperation is at the heart of any film production and that is why it seems completely normal to Alec and Terry, both of foreign origins, to expand the national circle to a European level. Indeed, according to them, collaborations between the countries of the European Union will intensify over time and, as it has already happened in the past, France and Romania are already pioneers in this cooperation.

IDEA FILM AROUND THE WORLD

We created Idea Film, 8 years ago, during a cup of coffee. So yes, it didn’t take long till we figured out that this is what we wanted to do, together.

Some things don’t need to change. This friendly approach and our background in film and commercial production for over 16 years was appealing to more than 80 clients from all over the world. Today there are more than 400 projects we took part in.

Our passion and our never resting curiosity urge us to to discover visual and storytelling concepts that can improve or refresh the perception of your company within your target audience.
