Biografi
Co-founder, producer, writer, director and actor.
Elise Finnerty moved to New York City after graduating from Skidmore College. While studying acting under Peter Jensen at the T. Schreiber Studio Conservatory, she garnered praise and attention as the lead in numerous independent films, commercials, as well as off off Broadway theater.
She has since signed with Paul Hilepo, of PH Entertainment Group, and regularly auditions in NYC. As a writer/director, her first full-length play had its staged-reading premiere at Access Theater in the spring of 2018 and she directed a full length the following month.
In July of the same year, Elise co-found the production company, Red Booth Productions LLC, alongside her business partner, Estelle Girard Parks. Since the company's launch, the duo has produced numerous content including: HausVac's newest featured commercial (directed by Elise), the second season of the hit web series BUMBLD, two short films (one of them written and directed by herself), and co-producing and directing the luxury French handbag company, Lolo Chatenay's latest video promo featuring supermodel Shanina Shaik.
Since 2020 Elise wrote, directed, acted, and co-produced her first feature film alongside Estelle, The Ones You Didn't Burn (2022). This is an award-winning psychological thriller about modern witches. The film is represented by sales agent Julian Richard from Jinga Films. It won multiple awards and is continuing its festival run into 2023.
Her last short film, The Hunt (2018) was the recipient of the Remi Award at Houston's International Film festival and did the rest of its festival circuit in 2020. She is currently working on a comedy-horror series titled "Headshot".
She and her partner are currently in pre production for their newest psychological thriller feature film.
