The Legend of Ochi

Encyclopedia Pictura is an award-winning filmmaking collective based in Glassell Park, Los Angeles, founded by lifelong friends Isaiah Saxon, Daren Rabinovitch, and Sean Hellfritsch. Known for their handcrafted aesthetic and inventive storytelling, the trio masterfully blends analog and digital techniques to create immersive worlds that explore themes of nature, adventure, science fiction, and fantasy.

Their work lives at the intersection of technology and nature, weaving vibrant, emotionally resonant stories filled with beauty and practical magic. Passionate about gardening, ecology, kindness, and Russian short stories, Encyclopedia Pictura’s ethos goes beyond filmmaking, reflecting their commitment to sustainability and community.

Isaiah Saxon also directed the recent A24 release The Legend of Ochi, a fantasy adventure and visually stunning tale of myth and wonder. The film will be available to stream starting August 15, 2025.

Their distinct visual style and sensitive approach to storytelling have earned widespread acclaim, with Esquire naming them “The Directors of the Future” and Filmmaker Magazine recognizing them among the “25 New Faces of Independent Film.” From music videos to boundary-pushing short films, Encyclopedia Pictura continues to build a legacy of innovation and artistry.
