Rachel Shane has build an incredibly inspiring career. In turn, her mission is to continue to produce inspiring and diverse projects.
She currently oversees all aspects of feature film and television development and production for Madison Wells.
A few of her credits include:

Rachel’s tenure at Madison Wells began as President of Production at OddLot Entertainment (aka MW), which produced and financed high-profile indie films including one of my all time favorite films, THE WAY WAY BACK starring Steve Carell, DRIVE starring Ryan Gosling, and Jon Stewart’s directorial debut, ROSEWATER.
Previous to Madison Wells, she climbed the ranks at Red Wagon Entertainment under the guidance of Doug Wick and Lucy Fisher.
Gems this week include:
Dropping out of law school and falling in love with film during an internship in Mexico

Knowing when to leap towards the next rung of the ladder
