about us

Who we are and what we do.
Picture
   
PERSONAE ENTERTAINMENT PICTURES is a development-to-production-and-beyond company that takes scripts/concepts to film production via producing both creatively and financially, working closely with film production vendors, talent reps, sales, marketing and distribution companies to keep in touch with the desired film and its audience along the way.

We like to make films and music videos that tell out-of-the-ordinary stories with a unique twist and work with a variety of trusted partners, from start to finish, to bring the genre of film in production to its very best.

Testimonials

“I’ve worked with Heidi Elizabeth over the last five years as a writer, producer, director and on-camera talent – both on projects in which I’ve employed her services as a writer/director/field-producer/on-camera talent, and projects in which she’s brought me on as a gaffer/lighting director/cameraman.  
She’s always professional, open and friendly, extremely focused and detail-oriented toward completing the desired visual product, whether that be a commercial, in-house corporate video, an interview for a nationally syndicated show or narrative film. 
It’s always a pleasure working with her.”
