A purpose-driven creative and financial engine focused on radically sincere content that is platform
About us
Wayfarer Studios, forged by a partnership between Justin Baldoni (Jane The Virgin, Five Feet Apart) and Steve Sarowitz (4S Bay/Paylocity), is a creative and financial engine that produces radically sincere film and television content that is platform and genre agnostic. We share the belief that quality content with purpose has a broad audience - what's from the heart will always reach the heart. We don’t believe content with purpose and commercial success are mutually exclusive. Wayfarer Studios was founded with the mission to develop and finance projects that can serve as true agents for social change, and which can eradicate the negative “isms” from our world. The studio aims “to disrupt for good” by empowering and protecting creators with fresh voices, championing content that speaks to the human spirit and challenging the status quo. We are building a Studio of yesterday for tomorrow centered around creators with our eyes towards a decentralized and digital future that embraces our diverse global community. Our first project was the film CLOUDS, a co-finance venture with Warner Bros. that Baldoni both directed and produced. Wayfarer Studios currently has multiple feature film and television projects in active development.
