Giantstep Subsidiary Biginsquare to Produce Film "Jiangshi: Horror Workshop"

Biginsquare, a subsidiary of the artificial intelligence (AI) and real-time content solutions company Giantstep, announced on August 20 that it will be producing the film "Jiangshi: Horror Workshop."

"Jiangshi: Horror Workshop" is a survival movie centered around employees of Dongbang Savings Bank who awaken a jiangshi — a Chinese hopping vampire that has been dormant for 400 years — while on a workshop trip to a remote island. Featuring office-worker characters, this genre film combines elements of comedy, horror, and exorcism action, and began full-scale filming on August 9. CJ ENM will be responsible for providing and distributing the film.

From the planning and development stage, Biginsquare has been specifying the concept and production direction of the work and building a production foundation through establishing necessary partnerships. The company plans to oversee the entire shooting and post-production process, establish a production system to raise the quality of the film, and lead end-to-end collaboration with key creative staff.

Since the release of the film “The Killers” in 2024, Biginsquare has been laying the foundation for the expansion of its content and video intellectual property (IP), including the upcoming drama series “Private Taxi,” scheduled to be released in October.

A representative from Giantstep stated, "With this project, Giantstep will expand its business potential to include film and video IP production, leveraging our existing strengths in real-time content, XR, and virtual production."
