How Can I Submit my Script Up North to Cheetah Vision Films
Lisa Veldon Stokes was born and raised in East New York, Brooklyn. The eldest of ten children, Lisa has been a leader at home.
The person that she has become is a compilation of all her experiences. In her
works, she invites you into the urban life through her eyes, hence the name
Eyes on You Entertainment of which she is Chief Executive Officer. Her passion
for film developed after her best friend could not get a record deal because of
the color of her skin. She made her a promise that she would learn how to do
film and feature her on the music score. After earning her Masters in Sociology
from Long Island University in 2002, she enrolled in a fourteen weeks digital
filmmaking course at the Digital Film Academy January 2005. May 2005, Lisa took
another step towards her dream when she wrote, produced and directed her first
short film entitled “Twisted Love” and a documentary entitled “Living on the
Low” both gives an inside look into the dynamics of bisexuality and how it
relates to the familial institution. “House Money” (2006) an urban short film
of friendship and betrayal. “Silent Cries of A Child” (2007), which deals with
child abuse and how a predator manipulates on vulnerability, (Winner of the
2007 New York International Film Festival). “Choices” (2007) which deals with
teenage pregnancy and its consequence. “Letting Go” (2009) which deals with
addiction. These projects are a great start to the plethora of tales, that
shows passion and dedication of a person who at the age of 5, dreamed of becoming
an Oscar winner. Watch out world, Lisa V. has her eyes on you.
