Amber Ripley Director of Development

Amber Ripley graduated from the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology’s Cinema, Television, Stage, Radio program in 2004.  After completing a production internship in Los Angeles for COLLABORATION FILMWORKS, she moved to Vancouver and joined the former INFINITY FEATURES team in 2005, spending the next few years working as an assistant to the writers, directors and producers on Infinity’s productions SHATTERED, SLEEPWALKING and STONE OF DESTINY.

 

In early 2008, Amber began work as a development executive for Infinity, where her extensive training and experience in numerous aspects of film production led her to oversee Infinity’s slate of projects in development.

Joining the newly formed FOUNDATION FEATURES as Director of Development, Amber is currently responsible for seeking out and developing viable commercial scripts that have engaging and powerful stories to tell for Foundation’s growing slate of upcoming projects.
