Reptilia Produções Transmídia

What Reptilia Produções Transmídia does

Reptilia Produções Transmídia is a São Paulo-based transmedia production company founded in 2012 that creates short films, animated content, and television series pilots centered on cultural plurality and dissident bodies in Brazilian society. The company's portfolio comprises five productions: O Amor Que Não Ousa Dizer Seu Nome (2013), Paleta de Cores (2015), NEGRUM3 (2018), Lé Com Cré (2018), and Cefalópodes (2026, scheduled). Core technology is 2D animation production and transmedia storytelling development, with full in-house capabilities spanning storyboard, character design, animation direction, voice direction, and sound design, supplemented by partnership with Estúdio Celestina for animation execution.

The company operates a hybrid revenue model combining professional services (commissioned production work for streaming platforms such as Amazon and Netflix, broadcast networks including Discovery Kids and GNT, and public broadcasters TV Brasil and TV Cultura) with proprietary content development (award-winning shorts and series pilots) that generates revenue through festival prizes, broadcast licensing, and co-production arrangements. Go-to-market relies on film-festival circuit presence and event-driven recognition rather than traditional sales motion, with strategic partnerships providing non-dilutive funding (Spcine, Prefeitura de São Paulo) and distribution access (SESC, Itaú Cultural, CineSesc). Pricing is custom and project-based, not publicly disclosed.

Customer segments span cultural organizations seeking diverse representation, streaming and broadcast platforms needing authentic Brazilian narratives, and specialized festival audiences (children/family, LGBTQ+, Black diaspora). The company is led by co-founders Vic Casé and Diego Paulino, supported by a core team of four, with institutional affiliations including APAN and Rede de Talentos Paradiso. Total productions have collectively won 50+ awards across Brazilian and international festivals, including the Itamaraty Prize, Carlos Saldanha Award, and Grande Prêmio do Cinema Brasileiro.
