Red Letter Media, LLC is an American film and video production company operated by independent filmmakers Mike Stoklasa, Jay Bauman, and Rich Evans. It was formed by Stoklasa in 2004 while he was living in the Scottsdale section of Ashburn, Chicago, but has long been based in the Copernicus Park neighborhood of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The company and its members have produced a number of low-budget productions including Oranges: Revenge of the Eggplant, Feeding Frenzy, The Recovered, and Space Cop.
The company attracted significant attention in 2009 through Stoklasa's 70-minute Mr Plinkett Review video essay on the 1999 film Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. Red Letter Media have produced a number of other essays and web series, including movie and TV reviews (Half in the Bag, Best of the Worst, and re:View), satirical fandom parodies (The Nerd Crew), and video game-based web series (Game Station 2.0, Previously Recorded).
