Founded in 2018 by siblings Rakea and Ray Sterling, Sterling Films became indie internet royalty from 2018 to 2023 by mastering short-form horror adaptations of legendary lore like the SCP Foundation, The Backrooms, and various Creepypastas. They capped off this iconic era on December 31, 2023, with a viral, wholesome meta-video featuring their crew and classic monsters. Moving into 2024, the studio transitioned into a massive new warehouse HQ to focus on high-end, feature-length cinema and official gaming adaptations. The creative core consists of Rakea Sterling (Director, Storywriter, and Visual Visionary), Ray Sterling (Lead Screenwriter and Social Media Mastermind), and Milly Stanton (Co-Owner, Production/Stunt Lead, and Rakea’s tomboy girlfriend). Supporting them is Willowcrest Productions, the essential business and technical backbone of the studio. This branch includes Raphael Sterling (Legal Oversight and Post-Production Lead), Rachel Sterling (Producer, Logistics, and Casting Director), Tristan Grover (Technical Specialist), and Anna Grover (Production Co-Lead for Costumes and Makeup). Driven by a "Practical First" effects ethos and a strict anti-exploitation fair-pay model, the team commands immense crew loyalty. Known in the industry as "The Untouchables," Willowcrest established a fierce legal shield after suing a reckless rival studio into bankruptcy following a life-altering stunt injury to Milly, protecting their tight-knit family soul. (Oh, and just a heads-up: the first two fancasts I do will not be associated with them!)
