That early spark of inspiration led her to the Victorian College of the Arts in Melbourne, to then being selected as one of only 30 undergraduate filmmakers worldwide selected to study under the legendary Vilmos Zsigmond (ASC) at the Budapest Cinematography Masterclass.
Since then, Ellenor’s films have gone on to receive accolades from George Miller (Mad Max), Rose Byrne, Bruna Papandrea (Big Little Lies), and Sam Neill (Jurassic Park).
Along the way, She’s worked with renowned action director Michael Bay, Forbes named her a trailblazer in AI for filmmaking, and she now consults for the ASC’s AI Committee, discussing the future of cinema alongside pioneers like James Cameron (Avatar, Titanic), Rob Legato (Apollo 13, Shutter Island), and Sal Totino (The Da Vinci Code, Spider-Man: Homecoming).
In 2019, Ellenor joined forces with producer Aphra Williams to launch Mermaid Toast, a female-driven creative agency and production company dedicated to fresh storytelling and innovative tech. At Mermaid Toast Ellenor runs an online course where teaches AI for pitching.
Ellenor’s photography has also appeared in publications like Kerrang, iHeartRadio, Lonely Planet, and Dallas Observer.
She’s currently juggling multiple features and TV series in various stages of production, including the documentary “On The Grid,” produced with Alex Pettyfer’s Dark Dreams Entertainment, which dives into women’s pursuit of seats in Formula 1.
Through her work—whether it’s in commercials, narrative film, or AI-driven innovation—Ellenor remains fueled by the same wide-eyed enthusiasm that first drew her to the magic of moviemaking.
