    A free 20-minute call about what you need, who it's for and where it'll live.

  2. Pre-production

  3. Shoot day

    A small crew, a clear schedule, and no surprises on the day.

  5. Draft two

    We revise, finish color and sound, and deliver every format you need.

What you can count on

Our Values House Rules

Plan the shoot, shoot the plan

Every shoot has a shot list and a call sheet before anyone picks up a camera.

Small crew, light footprint

Your event or your business keeps running while we film.

Sound counts

Viewers forgive soft focus. They don't forgive bad audio, so every package includes a proper mix.

Every frame earns its place

Short and sharp beats long and padded, on every platform.

Straight answers on price

Starting rates are on this page, and your quote lists exactly what's included.

Final cut Second draft

Every package includes a revision round. Nothing goes out on the first draft.

Behind the camera

About Us The Producer

Draft Two is Ellie: a producer, director and cinematographer with a degree in film production.

She's happiest running a production: getting the right people to the right place, making a tight schedule work, and keeping the day calm so the work on screen looks easy. She also brings years of healthcare scheduling, where a calendar that slips is a real problem. Call sheets feel familiar.

She loves working with talent, whether that's a first-time founder on camera, a nervous best man or a cast of actors, and she's based in Eau Claire, close to clients across the Chippewa Valley.

Take1

2023–2024

Draft Two Entertainment started as a small production company. It had a great name, big plans, and never quite got rolling.

Take2

2026 →

Same name, second draft. Draft Two is back as a production company for brands, events and weddings, with a games label on the side. Nobody gets it right on the first take, and that's the whole point.
