The FemmeMaker Mission
The FemmeMaker mission is to provide stellar production and development services to small businesses, individual artists, and content creators via media production planning and execution, as well as script writing, story development, and writing consultation. FemmeMaker aims to service a wide array of clients, while maintaining a special focus on empowering female filmmakers, media professionals, and audiences through professional networking events, workshops, screenings and audience outreach initiatives.
FemmeMaker Productions contracts with independent producers of film, television, and digital media to provide an array of production services. Having worked as a production accountant for over five years, as well as worked in varying capacities of production in film and television, Jessiline Berry has a breadth of experience to support and facilitate the needs of an independent media producer. Therefore, FemmeMaker Productions offers budget creation, production accounting, and production coordination on a project-by-project basis.
FemmeMaker Productions also offers several products under the heading of development services. The company not only consults with established media organizations to provide script coverage and script notes for developing potential original programming, but FemmeMaker also consults with individual writers through its service, “Fade Out by FemmeMaker”. Through Fade Out, Jessiline assists television and screenwriters in improving existing scripts, as well as improving their writing skills and developing new work. Fade Out offers straight-forward script coverage and personalized development packages by proposal.

Narrative Feature
Just three hours ago, they were strangers at a party; now Will is stopping Rayna from getting into an Uber so she can spend the night getting into him. The two "could be" lovers go on a moonlit adventure through the streets of LA, falling into mischief and, perhaps, something like love. But by morning’s light, Rayna will know Will all too well. For better. Or for worse.
"We are producing, A Night to Remember, as a way to start a conversation about YES is YES consent. Statistics show that 1 out of 6 women has been a victim of rape, 84% of rape victims knew their attackers, and 84% of men who've been involved in a date rape did not realize that what they did met the legal definition of date rape. A Night to Remember wants these statics to change, and we hope you will help."
