IT STARTED WITH
TWO WORLDS.
Official Cinema Cars was created to connect two industries that have always depended on each other—but haven't always had an easy way to find one another.
CARS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN
PART OF THE STORY.
Long before Official Cinema Cars existed, there was an understanding that the right vehicle could completely change the way a scene looked, felt and connected with an audience.
Cars in film and television aren't simply transportation. They help establish a character, a period, a lifestyle, a location and sometimes the identity of an entire production.
A vehicle can sit quietly in the background and make a scene believable—or become one of the most recognizable elements of the story itself.
MORE THAN
20 YEARS AROUND
ENTERTAINMENT.
Official Cinema Cars grew from more than two decades of experience around the entertainment industry combined with a deep connection to automotive culture.
Working around creative projects, branding, visual production, automotive companies, events and enthusiast communities provided a view into both sides of the equation.
Productions need vehicles.
Car owners have vehicles productions would love to use.
THE CHALLENGE WAS CONNECTING THEM.
FINDING THE RIGHT CAR
SHOULDN'T BE THE
HARDEST PART.
PRODUCTIONS
A production may need a very specific year, make, model, color or style of vehicle—and sometimes needs it immediately.
THE SEARCH
Finding that vehicle can mean searching classifieds, social media, car clubs, dealerships, private collections and individual owners.
THE OWNER
Meanwhile, thousands of owners have exactly the vehicles productions are looking for—but have no direct connection to the production industry.
WHAT IF THERE WAS
ONE PLACE
BUILT FOR BOTH?
A place where vehicle owners could register their cars for professional production opportunities.
And a place where production professionals could locate the vehicles they need without starting the search from scratch every time.
IT WAS NEVER JUST
ABOUT EXOTICS.
One of the ideas behind OCC is simple: there is no single definition of a great picture car.
Of course productions need Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Porsches, classics, custom builds and extraordinary vehicles.
But productions also need family sedans, pickup trucks, commuter cars, SUVs, motorcycles, vans, period vehicles and everyday cars that most people wouldn't consider particularly unusual.
The vehicle that barely gets noticed at a car show could be exactly what a production designer needs to complete a scene.
EVERY VEHICLE HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME THE RIGHT VEHICLE FOR THE RIGHT STORY.
AN OPPORTUNITY
TO BECOME PART
OF THE STORY.
OCC gives owners a way to make their vehicles discoverable for legitimate professional productions while maintaining the ability to evaluate each opportunity before accepting it.

A BETTER WAY
TO FIND THE
RIGHT VEHICLE.
OCC provides a growing network of vehicles and owners that can be searched and matched against the creative and logistical requirements of professional productions.

WE UNDERSTAND WHAT
THE VEHICLE MEANS.
To a production, a vehicle may be an essential piece of a scene. To its owner, that same vehicle may represent years of work, investment and passion.
That difference matters.
OCC was designed with an understanding of automotive enthusiasts and the relationship owners have with their cars.
Clear communication, appropriate insurance, defined vehicle use, transportation planning and owner approval aren't secondary considerations. They're part of doing the job correctly.
For the vehicle and the person who owns it.
Clear expectations before the vehicle reaches production.
Insurance and vehicle-use requirements appropriate to the project.
A better experience for owners and production teams.
THIS IS ONLY
THE BEGINNING.
Official Cinema Cars is being built as more than a collection of vehicle listings.
The goal is to create a specialized production network containing vehicles across automotive cultures, eras, categories and price points.
As more owners join the registry, OCC becomes capable of responding to more specific requests—from a single hero car to an entire collection of vehicles needed for a production.
Every registration makes that network stronger.
BUILD A TRUSTED BRIDGE
BETWEEN CAR CULTURE
AND THE SCREEN.
Give production professionals better access to the vehicles they need.
Give vehicle owners access to opportunities they may never have known existed.
And create a professional network where both sides understand exactly what to expect.
EVERY CAR
HAS A STORY.
