Beyond Us Film Team...
...Always New Ideas
The Beyond Us Film Team was created after Madeleine Jones' and Maeve Coffey's Master's Project under the same name. With many ideas always going within the team, it created a base, an unofficially official group where new and old members regionally close to Indiana, PA propose ideas, make plans in production meetings, and film new works together.
As a team, we work with each other's strengths, while also acknowledging to share the work and creative dream within the small team, covering what is needed in the moment, regardless of experience. ​
