Concourse Media to Sell Taylor Cohen's Debut Thriller at AFM

Concourse Media has taken over sales duties for “Strobe,” a psychological thriller that marks the feature directorial debut of Taylor Cohen. The company will present the film to buyers at the American Film Market in Los Angeles.

The cast includes Suzanna Son, Chace Crawford, Rohan Campbell, Laura Harrier, Mena Suvari, and Grace Van Dien. The story centers on a high school senior who becomes obsessed with finding a mysterious electronic dance music artist. Her search leads her into the underground nightlife scene, where she confronts a world defined by deception and the pursuit of fame.

Cohen has previously worked as a music video director for artists such as Billie Eilish, Nicki Minaj, Megan Thee Stallion, and Conan Gray. This marks his first time directing a feature film.

Jack Sheehan, president of sales at Concourse Media, described the project as a visually distinctive thriller that appeals to younger audiences. He noted that the film offers a visceral cinematic experience that aligns with current trends in genre cinema.

The production was handled by Tara Razavi of Happy Place, Nate Matteson, and Hiro Murai via Super Frog. Happy Place financed the film, which is its first feature project. Clayton Moore served as an executive producer. Super Frog is also known for its work on television series including “Atlanta,” “The Bear,” and “Mr. & Mrs. Smith.” Creative Artists Agency is representing the domestic rights.

The producers stated that the film is a passion project that explores themes of fame and power. They expressed enthusiasm for Concourse Media’s involvement in finding an audience for Cohen’s vision.

“Strobe” joins other titles in Concourse Media’s current slate. These include “Parish,” starring Nicolas Cage and Dane Dehaan, which finished filming in Minnesota this week, and “Vision Board,” starring Lucy Hale, which is currently in pre-production.
