STEPHEN DEVRIES
DIRECTOR
I love collaborating with crew members and clients to make a story come to life, and I started Eleven Productions to do just that. I have more than 15 years of industry experience, working first in photography and now as a commercial director. For each project, I bring that finely tuned photographer’s eye for composition and lighting to the project. On film projects, I love working with talent to get genuine, engaging performances. I care about the details and work closely with my crew to find the right approach to each aspect of a project.
KATIE DELOACH
PRODUCER
Katie DeLoach is the producer at Eleven Productions where she facilitates everything from pre-production to post-production across a wide range of projects. Over the last 7 years in the industry, she has gained diverse experience while working as a production coordinator on feature films, in the post department for Unsolved Mysteries’ Amazon Prime distribution, and as a creative resource manager for the Volkswagen account at Deutsch LA (to name a few). She ultimately ended up freelancing for Eleven Productions in 2022 and quickly decided to come onboard full time because of the awesome team of people who work here!
BLAKE BENTON
SENIOR EDITOR
Blake Benton is the Post Production Supervisor at Eleven Productions. After starting his editorial career over ten years ago in the film industry, he moved into film marketing content creation for brands such as Lionsgate and Sony Provident. After the huge box office marketing success of “I Can Only Imagine,” he began to transition his career into the advertising world, bringing his heartfelt and energetic editorial style to national brands like Publix and The Home Depot.
MAX SOTO
ASSISTANT ART DIRECTOR
Max ‘Danger’ Soto is the 1st Assistant Director here at Eleven Productions. At the ripe age of 19, young beardless Max started his career at Florida Gulf Coast University. As a smart, ambitious and extremely handsome young man, he eagerly absorbed as much as possible. Once out of school, he spent time exploring and immersing himself in each department. With great mentors, he learned the industry and as his ginger beard grew, so did his understanding of what it takes for a successful shoot. Story has been told that many years later during a solar eclipse, fate being the cruel bitch she is, he needed to fill the 1st AD role on a production. With the production gods behind him, Max rose to the challenge and became the greatest 1st AD in the world.
