CHALLENGING ASSUMPTIONS
We’re an up-and-coming production company that develops original IPs for documentaries, fiction, and animated TV series. At ELIOTNESS, our films and series transcend genres and formats, seamlessly blending a deep societal perspective with a meticulous commitment to craftsmanship. We build projects from the ground up with a specific focus on storytelling and sincerity to give rise to singular projects. Stories that speak to everyone. Stories that create honest and truthful films. Our producers and directors are first and foremost united by a common desire to challenge assumptions.
Over the years, we’ve produced hundreds of films through our TROUBLEMAKERS and JACKFLASH labels. This experience has led us to create ELIOTNESS to explore a variety of formats, from TV series to feature films, through documentary, fiction and animation.
