TESTIMONIALS

"To have Eliane on set both in front of and behind the camera is a truly unique and exciting experience. She is incredibly reliable, and her sense of humor, energy, and enthusiasm are sure to lift the morale of any production. "

Vinny de Ghoulie, Studio Ghoulie, 2015.

"There's something hard to place when you see an Eliane Lima photo or film. Where exactly did she take that image of the young girls on the street — the one where one is playing contentedly with a hoop while another looks like she's going to cry in pain?

Jonathan Curiel - SF Weekly, 2012.

 

​"What a delightful and creative woman is Eliane Lima. She produces a lot of high quality work in both film and video and doesn't appear to get tired out doing so. Ms. Lima seems to know how to jazz scenes up on the surface while still retaining a great depth of feeling in subject matter..."

​George Kuchar - SFAI, 2010.
