Elise Tyson (she/her) is a writer living in London.

Elise is gonna be honest with you.

She’s at a crossroads.

After graduating with a Bachelor of Film & Television in Naarm, Australia, Elise has worked in various production roles across film and television for five years.

There’s just one problem.

She’s desperate to get back into world building. Crafting stories. Connecting humans. Using her mind creatively.

Elise knows how to write. Her first published writing, about the effect of Hollywood strikes on UK crew, appeared in the Guardian UK in 2023. She’s since written articles, prose and poetry for several publishers.

Her short script St Bernie was nominated as a finalist for both Oaxaca FilmFest & Moondance International Film Festival. She directed it too, and won Best National Film at the Canberra Short Film Festival & an Accolade Award of Excellence for Women Filmmakers in 2018.

Elise lives for content. Devours it like it’s vegemite on toast with the perfect amount of butter (minimal). Her favourite stories breathe authenticity, challenge social perceptions & celebrate the wonderfully messy human condition.

She’s also persuasive. Elise knows she can package up your hopes and dreams and sell them back to you. If you want. She’s new to London, though, and career changes are hard. Can you help her?

Oh, yeah.

Her favourite colour, in case you can’t already tell, is green.
