@whitneyrowlett

I produce complex media, VFX, immersive events, and international productions.

I've produced work for Netflix, Apple TV+, Meta, Marvel, Fox Nation, Sony Entertainment, and major branded events, spanning feature films, streaming series, VFX, virtual reality, games, and live experiences.

At Territory Studio, I led VFX production for projects including Atlas, Echo 3, Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile, and Batman: Arkham Shadow, managing bids, budgets, vendors, technical workflows, and international teams from planning through delivery.

Through Counts to Nine Productions and Red Nightfall Dance Theater, I build production plans, lead crews, negotiate contracts and union agreements, and turn creative ideas into finished films, performances, campaigns, and immersive projects.

I'm an Emmy-winning producer who brings rigorous operational leadership to multidisciplinary teams while keeping storytelling, collaboration, and the audience experience at the center.
