Principal
49th Estate is a creative agency, a production company and a talent collective. At the helm is Sandra Enns-Arnell, most recently Senior Creative Director at Canwest, where she was the head of D71, the in-house creative agency for the Marketing Ventures group. She was Creative Director of the same division at Alliance Atlantis, as well as being the long time Creative Director of Showcase and Dramatic channels. With more than 12 years in the business, Sandra has a wealth of experience in channel branding, on-air promotions, and the art of pitching – a skill that became very well developed in her role as head of the creative division that provided brand integration and branded entertainment to external clients. As a producing Creative Director, she writes and directs when she can, and looks for new creative opportunities around every corner.
Collaborators
A virtual enterprise is expandable. At 49th Estate, collaborators are brought together to develop creative projects from the spark of an idea to full blown execution. It is an exceptional talent pool fostered by long time creative relationships with writers, producers, cinematographers, editors and actors. The project work on this site is a testament to these relationships and to what is possible at 49th Estate. Big ideas. Hand selected teams. Limitless possibilities.
