Takeda Entertainment Begins Film for Elite Hearing Network

Scene from our narrative film for Elite Hearing Network

This month, our creative team begins work on a narrative short film for Elite Hearing Network. We’re especially excited to have the opportunity to cast actors and use our narrative film skills to craft a dramatic story. Elite is also a new client for us. They are based in Maine and the largest network of independent hearing care providers in the US, supporting more than 1,600 locations. This film will premiere at their Kick Off meeting in January.

“I’m very excited about this particular film,” said director Lori Kay Allred. “We’ve been sharpening our narrative film skills and have even gotten distribution. Scott begins casting this week, and I look forward to making my selects.”

The agency of record for this project is BI Worldwide out of Minneapolis. BI’s Blake Hambrick is executive producer. John Penzien and Michael Kelly are screenwriters and creative directors. Locally, our team includes Takeda (producer/casting director), Lori Kay Allred (director), Brock Sherman (AD and art director), Dave Klein (cinematographer), Slade Williamson (audio grip), Rhonda Barnheisel (production manager), Ryan Welborn (editor), and Zlatko Makic (post audio). Donna Baldwin Agency provides the on-camera talent.
