Documentary Films
The complex and fascinating nature of the human condition is explored in
documentaries produced for the national and international broadcast market.
Currently in production is HORSE CRAZY, an hour-long documentary intended for the
cable market. It's about having a passion for something which makes getting up
in the morning worthwhile. Some people search fruitlessly all their lives for
it; some develop one. A lucky few appear to be born with theirs: horse crazy
females. Where does it come from and how does it affect their lives? Horse crazy
women and girls, psychologists, biologists, and geneticists will explore the
mystery of this obsessive passion that’s definitely not about sex, no matter
what Freud thought.

“ I’ve carried my own obsession to the point of building my life around it. Suzanne wants to explore the emotional connection we feel to horses and even
the spiritual connection. This is important. No one else has ever done it.”

—Caroline Thompson, screenwriter/ director of BLACK BEAUTY,
screenwriter of EDWARD SCISSORSHANDS, THE SECRET GARDEN.

Personal Documentaries
A personal documentary captures a unique story to be shared with family, friends, and loved ones. Everyone has a story to tell that can be made into a movie-- a first birthday or a 100th. A family reunion or a christening. Or a loving portrait of a person’s life to be shown at his or her memorial service. What’s your story?

“We love our movie, MIRANDA’S VERY FIRST BIRTHDAY! It's much more than a video of an event—Suzanne was able to tell a story about our daughter and how her life has brightened ours. She captured our daughter's personality, as well as how our daughter has affected other family members. Suzanne asked perfect questions that encouraged thoughtful and tender memories and sentiments about our daughter.
The movie will be a treasured part of our family history.”

–Jenni and Dave Wiener

Promotional Films for Nonprofit Organizations
Non-profit organizations are not about the bottom line, they’re about making a difference. They offer services and support that can give help, hope and a future to those in need, whether they be human or another species. Their stories, captured in a film, are powerful tools for promotion, education, and fund-raising.

"The video powerfully portrayed the heart and the passion of our organization as it accurately captured the story of the challenges, failures and successes of the individuals involved in our program. Best of all, Suzanne wonderfully produced a medium that promoted hope and comfort to those in crisis.”

--Luis Enage, Development Manager, Daytop Village, Adolescent Drug
and Alcohol Rehabilitation Center
