The studio

A producer
in Colombo

Emika Productions works across film, television, advertising and media. One house holding research, strategy, creative and production together — because the handovers between them are where good work usually dies.

What we
actually do

The Emika Productions logo

On paper we are a production company. In practice the useful description is narrower: we take a commercial problem and follow it all the way to something an audience watches.

That means the research is ours, the strategy is ours, the campaign idea is ours, and the shoot is ours. A brief does not get thrown over a wall three times before it reaches a camera. The people who worked out what the audience cares about are the same people standing behind the monitor.

It also means we are comfortable at very different lengths. In the same body of work you will find thirty-second commercial thinking, a four-minute music video, hour-long multi-camera concert films from the Swarale 2023 sessions, and a 116-minute feature.

That feature is Father. Released on 9 January 2026 and directed by Chaminda Jayasuriya in his first feature, produced by Dr. Shantha Geethadeva, it is a gangster drama drawn from real events in Sri Lanka between 1976 and 1991. It passed LKR 100 million at the box office in seventeen days and LKR 250 million worldwide in twenty-five, then went on to international release in Australia and Canada.

How we think

Three things
we hold to

  • 01

    Evidence before craft

    Research and strategy come first so the creative has something to stand on. Taste is not an argument; it is what you use once the argument is settled.

  • 02

    Built for the long form

    The discipline that gets a feature through a period shoot is the same discipline that makes a thirty-second commercial hold up. We do not run two standards.

  • 03

    Made to be seen

    Media planning belongs in the brief. Work that nobody sees is not finished work, however good the grade is.
