LOS ANGELES - Californer -- Rising producers Brooke Becker and Delaney Sharpe have launched Black Ribbon Productions, a Los Angeles-based production company dedicated to developing horror, sci-fi, and alternative content for digital platforms. Focused on bold, unsettling storytelling, the company aims to champion underrepresented voices while delivering unconventional narratives for modern audiences.
Becker is known for her work in Hulu's The Dropout, HBO Max's Head of the Class, and Freeform's grown-ish. She also served as a staff writer and had a recurring role on the award-winning series Parallel, currently streaming on Prime Video. Sharpe is an accomplished playwright whose produced works include Emily Dickinson Is Dead at the Aurora Fox Theater. She made her directorial debut with Adaptation: Harrison Bergeron and has appeared in projects including Reputation, Artefact, and the feature film Army & Coop, which is currently streaming on Prime Video.

Launching ahead of the 2026 Halloween season, Black Ribbon Productions' first slate includes: The Veil, a bite-sized horror anthology series premiering on YouTube in August 2026; Emergence, a sci-fi horror short film starring Ambar Martinez (The Pitt, 9-1-1) and directed by J. Scott Miller (Future Ref); Thin Air, a horror sci-fi short film written and directed by Brooke Becker (produced in collaboration with Rhymes With Pie Productions) starring Monroe Cline (Don't Worry Darling, The Beauty) premiering at L.A Shorts International Film Festival in August 2026; and Dark Ages, a digital horror campaign following a woman being treated for endometriosis in the late 1400s.
"Black Ribbon Productions was born from the scary stories we used to read under the covers at night instead of doing our homework—terrifying and fascinating tales that speak to our most human experiences," says co-founder and Lead Creative Producer Brooke Becker. "We're thrilled to champion fresh voices and bring audiences the unexpected via the platforms they already gravitate toward."

"Audiences have made it clear they're looking for bold, original ideas," adds co-founder and Head of Client Services Delaney Sharpe. "We're committed to developing original genre projects while collaborating with filmmakers from historically underrepresented communities as our perspectives help expand what the genre can be. By embracing both digital-first distribution and traditional media avenues, we seek to bring innovative horror stories to wider audiences."
