Harkenn - About

Our Mission

Harkenn makes compelling, narrative-driven films for aerospace, automotive, engineering and industrial firms. We hold total fidelity to technical specifications, modelling every product with pinpoint accuracy, so business development and tender teams get a story that wins bids, and stands up to expert scrutiny.

Our proprietary workflow platform takes a concept to a finished, cinematic film in one continuous process: script, storyboard, shot selection, art direction. Built with the accuracy to survive scrutiny. And the craft to move an audience.

The same platform lets us adapt a single film for different audiences. Swapping the prototype, the environment, the context, without rebuilding the production, so one shoot can speak to different buyers, wherever they are.

What makes Harkenn different from other AI filmmaking platforms?

Harkenn has developed the only AI film platform that covers brief-to-delivery in a single environment. The platform is model-agnostic, giving clients the flexibility to work with the best available AI engine as technology evolves. It is built to produce visualisation that meets engineering specifications. Every film, lens, direction, editing choice and brand asset is stored, building an identifiable brand language that compounds across future campaigns.

How is technical accuracy ensured?

Outputs are built and reviewed against source CAD, engineering drawings and technical documentation at each stage, ensuring technical fidelity. Harkenn works directly with aerospace, automotive, engineering and industrial clients on real technical projects. This work serves as the proving ground for the platform, with every capability tested against genuine production conditions before it is trusted for client delivery.

How is sensitive data kept secure?

Harkenn treats data security as a core design requirement from the outset. Access controls, data handling and storage practices are built around the sensitivity of client material. giving enterprise and defence clients independently verified assurance

Can one film be adapted for different products, markets or audiences?

Yes. Assets are built and stored for reuse, allowing a single film to be adapted for different products, markets, languages or audience segments. Because the underlying asset work is reusable, each new variation becomes faster and more cost-effective to produce.

Do future films and variations become more cost-effective over time?

Yes. Each project builds on the last, so assets, environments and technical builds already created remain available for future use. The more a client produces with Harkenn, the more of the next project can be assembled from existing, validated assets. This improves both cost and turnaround for future work.

How much control does the client have over the final film?

Full control. The platform is structured around four stages, each with built-in review points, so clients can direct and approve the film throughout production and see exactly how it is being made. This is particularly important where creative ambition needs to work within engineering, brand or tender requirements.

Can Harkenn work with existing CAD, STP renders and technical assets?

Yes. The platform is designed to ingest existing technical assets, including CAD models and prior renders, streamlining production from the outset. This is central to delivering visualisation that is faithful to engineering specification, built directly from the client's own source data.

How does the process compare with traditional CGI or live-action production?

Traditional CGI and live-action production typically take longer and cost more, as each project is built largely from scratch. Harkenn combines AI-accelerated production with a compounding asset library, making the process faster and more cost-effective with every use, while maintaining the technical accuracy that engineering and defence clients require.

How quickly can a film be produced?

Turnaround time depends on the complexity of the brief and the required technical accuracy. A specific estimate is provided for each project. The AI-accelerated workflow and reusable assets mean production timelines are significantly shorter than those of traditional CGI or live-action routes, particularly for follow-on work that draws on assets already built.

Who owns the final film and the generated assets?

Ownership terms are set out in the commercial agreement for each engagement, structured to suit client requirements. As a general position, clients own the films and assets produced for their briefs, while the underlying platform and infrastructure remain with Harkenn. Specifics are confirmed in writing before any project begins.
