Founded by filmmakers Darryl Ayles and Jamara Forbes in London, Ontario, OHFP is an award-winning independent film production company.

We are independent original content creators of feature films, short films, music videos and more. Orange Hat Film Productions was established in 2014 with the main focus of taking risks to push each of our projects farther than the last, and reach past the boundaries of our comfort zone. The perfect formula for our productions include creative contributions, working with new actors and passionate Canadian filmmakers to share our moving pictures across Canada and worldwide.
