Elizabeth Arends started her craft as a dancer and actress. She has performed Internationally and on film and Theatre and T.V. She began to choreograph and worked with the director on different ITV and BBC drama's in UK. Before leaving the UK to move to Los Angeles three years ago Elizabeth produced and directed her first feature film 'Ratted Out' , A gangster crime drama. Elizabeth works a lot with her husband, DOP and sound operator 'Dickie Sanderson' and between them they have been able to create many short films and pilots together. Elizabeth is passionate about 'telling the story' and the truth of the scene.
I first met Jeanne Taylor on a feature film project in Wales, England. We became great friends and soon realized her unique talents both as an actor and also a writer. We soon started on pilots and short projects together in Los Angeles, before collaborating on a webseries idea about a 'ventriloquist doll who solves murders' ... what could possibly be more fun?! So 'let's be about it' Mrs Carmody and Mrs Jellineck have now taken center stage. With a small cast and crew, Elizabeth enjoys working with all talent involved and how much hard work, enthusiasm and fun everyone has contributed.
Congratulations to our cast and crew! Mrs. Carmody & Mrs. Jellineck: Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow are very proud to have FIVE wins along with FOUR Official Selections. We look forward to our upcoming festivals and competitions!
