Elizabeth Archer

February 8, 1996 — Mill Valley, California, U.S

Based in Los Angeles, Elizabeth Archer is a left-of-center director + writer who creates stories rooted in vibrant, stylized worlds and has a funny bone for offbeat, comedic filmmaking. Her cheeky sensibility, visual aesthetic and playful tone breathes life into both her narrative and commercial work. She explores the absurdities of modern life from an emotional palette of both subtle, nuanced performances and hilarious physical comedy.

During her time in Los Angeles, Elizabeth has worked for companies such as Hello Sunshine, Netflix and most recently, as a treatment designer at PRETTYBIRD. She has directed dozens of comedic short films, sketches, music videos and commercials that have screened at the Directors Guild of America, Palm Springs ShortFest, Frameline48, National Film Festival for Talented Youth and Catalina Film Festival. She is currently in post-production on a web series starring Keke Palmer for KeyTV. When she isn’t writing her bio in third person, she enjoys visiting urgent care for her seasonal allergies.

Elizabeth is signed across the board at 42 Management & Production for directing/writing, at SLMBR PRTY for U.S. commercials and as a freelance treatment designer at the Betterment Society.
