In a dark time, a light-bringer came along, leading the curious and the frustrated to

clarity and empowerment. It took the well-guarded secrets out of the hands of the

few and made them available to all. It spread a spirit of openness and creative freedom, and built a

storehouse of knowledge dedicated to the betterment of the arts.

The essence of Michael Wiese Productions (MWP) is empowering people who have the burning

desire to express themselves creatively. We help them realize their dreams by putting the tools

in their hands. We demystify the sometimes secretive worlds of screenwriting, directing, acting,

producing, film financing, and other media crafts.

By doing so, we hope to bring forth a realization of “conscious media,” which we define as being

positively charged, emphasizing hope and affirming positive values like trust, cooperation, self-

empowerment, freedom, and love. Grounded in the deep roots of myth, it aims to be healing both

for those who make the art and those who encounter it. It hopes to be transformative for people,

opening doors to new possibilities and pulling back veils to reveal hidden worlds.

Onward and upward,

Michael Wiese

Publisher/Filmmaker
