About
We build the production portal we wish existed when we were running our own sets.
I'm Marquis Barnes — filmmaker, actor, AI content creator. I've worked across indie features, network episodic, brand commercials, and short films, and I kept noticing the same thing on every set: the business of producing was held together with email threads, group chats, paper sides, a shared Dropbox, and somebody's phone.
The actual creative work is hard enough. The logistics shouldn't be the thing that breaks productions — but it usually is. So we started building oncroo. Not as a tool we'd try to sell, but as the tool we needed.
oncroo. is opinionated. It's for productions that want a real portal, not a Notion template. Cast onboarding, call sheets, contracts, documents, partner dashboards, AI script breakdown, and a public landing page for every show — all under one login, with row-level privacy, on-prem AI, and the kind of restraint you only get from people who've been the ones chasing NDAs at 11pm.
All your production data in one place. No more copying and pasting or sharing files across platforms.
Row-level privacy that your data stays private, even as it's shared across projects and teams.
Built by people who've been on set. We understand production needs, not just tech trends.
We're actively developing oncroo. for production teams. Here's a sample of the projects we're helping to run:
Feature Film
TV Series
Commercial
Marquis Barnes, founder of oncroo., has been on set for over 15 years. Before oncroo., he worked with some of Hollywood's top productions on features and episodic television, and spent years as a producer and actor.
This background gave him deep insights into what production teams need, which inspired the vision of oncroo.
