Welcome to Sublab! We’re Submarine Channel’s development lab for digital and transmedia storytelling. Our mission is to explore new and innovative ways of storytelling by stimulating the collaboration between artists and media professionals from various creative disciplines.

As a Dutch institution, we have grown into a leading global player over the past twenty years. Submarine Channel is often compared to other prolific interactive storytelling and transmedia producers including: German/French Arte, the National Film Board of Canada, German broadcaster Bayerische Rundfunk and American POV. Our solid position in this international field also gives us the opportunity to work with the best creators, set up international co-productions, and reach an international audience with national and international partners.
Many of our productions are culturally impactful and of high artistic quality.

In 2021 we stopped producing and started to focus solely on development. We invite artists and media professionals from various creative disciplines to explore the many different ways through which stories can be told. They can do so by taking part in Sublab. By the end of Sublab, each project should have a pitch deck ready to step to potential buyers and/or investors and be ready to go into production.

At Sublab, we want to offer the expertise Submarine Channel has gathered over the years to inspire, train, and stimulate collaborations between filmmakers, journalists, animators, game developers, and others worldwide.
