Jen Lyon-Health and Safety/Producer

Jen has produced 12 films since May 2016 and has won over 200 festival awards globally. She started making short films based on 72 hour challenges with zero budgets so she knows how to make a dollar stretch and use clever alternatives to get the job done. 

​

When COVID-19 shut down the industry in March 2020, Jen found herself in the unique position of merging her background as a Paramedic and experience in Production to become one of the first COVID Compliance officers to return to set. From "bubbling" casts and crews in COVID to heading up the Health and Safety Team for "The Flight Attendant" as the first major television series returned to filming in NYC, Jen learned invaluable on-the-job experience as the pandemic created never before encountered obstacles in our industry. Jen went on to continue to head Health and Safety teams on large-scale productions for HBO Max, Showtime, and Feature Films. 

 

Additionally, Jen has run a successful Film Festival in the Berkshires.  Her innate ability to bring a film from concept to script, to post-production completion, and through the festival submission process, will help you through any phase your project. Her proven method has been based on picking the best people for the job, staying true to the writer's intent, and making a story clear for the audience, all while staying within the your budget. 

 

Making a film can be overwhelming but you don't have to do it alone.  Either as a Consulting Producer or as a fully signed Producer, Jen will help guide your project from an idea into a success!
