THE COMPANY -

Nightlight Pictures, LLC, is a motion picture production company co-owned by the director Danny Daneau and producer Erica Harrell.

Writer-Director – Danny Daneau
At only 27 years old, Danny Daneau is an award winning independent filmmaker who has worked extensively in many areas of production and education. Born in the United Kingdom, Daneau was the son of an Air Force NCO father and nurse mother stationed in Bambury, England. Raised in southwest Florida, Daneau graduated with a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Central Florida School of Film where he directed numerous award winning short films, music videos, and mixed media projects that have played in over forty film festivals around the world. In the May of 2009, Daneau completed production on his first feature length film, THE ATTIC DOOR.

Daneau and producer Erica Harrell partnered with Kane County, Utah and the Utah Film Commission to be the first recipients of a unique incentive grant program which enabled them to set THE ATTIC DOOR within the majestic, isolated, and sometimes fearful American West. After wrapping production, they were invited back to Utah for the Sundance Film Festival in 2008 to speak on a panel and share clips from the film. Beginning it’s festival run, THE ATTIC DOOR has already won “Best Feature” “Best Score” and “Best Cinematography” at the 2009 Bend Film Festival in Oregon and awaits many more festival screenings. Currently, Daneau resides in Los Angeles where he is developing future film and television projects.
