Lilac Gray Studios

Who are We.

We are a sister-owned production company working to inspire and uplift others through film, video, & multimedia entertainment projects that explore and highlight new and diverse ideas. 

Lilac Gray Studios is a film and video production company that specializes in projects of film and video, theater, television, radio, and multimedia entertainment. We offer film and video production consulting services, and film, video, & television production services in the nature of development, pre-production, production, and post-production, and distribution.

Our Why.

We started Lilac Gray Studios because we wanted to go beyond just sharing our own work with the world, and wanted to help others visualize their creative ideas through storytelling on the big screen by drawing from the lessons and resources we have gathered from film and business school experiences. 

Growing up, we would hear friends, family, and even strangers on the street, tell us about the movies and television shows they dreamed of creating, but could not conceive of how they would begin, which consequently, meant that their dreams died, somewhat.  did not seriously consider making because they sadly did not have the connections, knowhow, or community to do so. Being able to work with others from so many different walks of life, who are all interested in storytelling, brings us back to our core mission of creating work that encourages and uplifts people.
