In 2003 Bea de Visser establishes the independent production studio Anotherfilm in Rotterdam. Initially the studio, with camera’s, equipment for online and digital image editing, is her head room for scenario and film development, and serves as a tool for pre- and post-production of all her film projects. At the end of 2005 Bea de Visser starts working as a producer for other filmmakers. With the cooperation of Hans Eijses Anotherfilm develops into a production company, focused on those filmmakers who keep the wide field of cinema adventurous. Anotherfilm, as a co-producer, intends to actively cooperate and support the realisation and funding of independent quality films, theatre and film scenography and film installations on a national and international scale.
