At Spontak Entertainment, we firmly believe that our films are worth viewing with your besties, family, anyone you love having a deep conversation with. Why? Because stories are meant to be experienced together, especially ours. It is our mission to bring people truly together during these skyrocketing times of epic loneliness.
We are a powerhouse of a production company working diligently on stories that break characters to rebuild their worlds and expand their perspective - and maybe yours too (in the best way possible).
Founder Danielle Spontak's lifelong goal is to create something in each genre before she dies, that way there's something for everyone to enjoy. Some of her fondest memories growing up were setting up an in-house picnic on Friday nights — over pizza of course — to watch Blockbuster films on the floor with her family. Although her family lives abroad in various countries, they still come together to watch films whilst traveling.
With a plethora of award-winning short films and scripts, including a Sundance-winning screenplay (Sing During the Storm), Danielle is a writer/director who also produces her own work. She hails from Raleigh, North Carolina (US) and graduated from the University of San Diego with a BA in English Literature as well as an MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Kent. She also has degrees in Communication Studies and Biology, which helped sharpen her research and character development skills with surgical precision. Danielle is known for Moon Eater, which went viral on YouTube with 50k+ views, I Am Philippines, an Arts Council-funded short about Filipino diaspora in the UK, and I See You're Alone, a successfully crowdfunded short horror.
Spontak Entertainment is dedicated to creating films by humans for humans, which means no AI is used in front or behind the camera. We love collaborating with fellow filmmakers so do reach out if you're interested in collaborating with us!
