Book a 1 on 1 Session"Thank you for helping me to do things that even my own imagination fell short of envisioning for myself. You've helped me achieve things I have dreamed about and that seemed 5 years away within less than two months. I feel so hopeful about my life during a time where it is incredibly difficult to feel hopeful. "
Harper Y.
Filmmaker
"This is my first experience in film and I was absolutely overwhelmed and lost. After working closely weekly with Sara Elizabeth to organize my thoughts and develop my deck, pitch materials and pitch, I attached a Sundance, Emmy and Oscar nominated Director and within 3 weeks of pitching investors, I have already secured $200k and counting! Without her, I would not be where I am now!"

"Sara Elizabeth has been a vitally integral part of my education in the entertainment/film business and her tutelage helps me avoid so many mistakes and pitfalls that I could easily fall into. 5 classes and COUNTING. "

Molly R.

"Sara takes complex ideas and simplifies them in a way that is easy to implement and very applicable in the real world. She is kind and generous and speaks with so much heart that you will feel you have a trusted friend guiding you throughout your entire journey. She also has a ton of incredible 'aha' tips that can only come from experience and will save you thousands of minutes, dollars, and pieces of mental energy (which you'll need a ton of for the shoot!)."
