About - Skye Ellis
Skye serves as the Creative Director of Flying Eagle Productions and the visual mind behind nearly everything that leaves our edit bays. A former art-school goth turned corporate visionary, she’s known for transforming analog tape and feedback loops into something that somehow feels like art; even when it’s a corporate training video.
In 1980, when Skye was a freshman in high school, Dan and Lauren Warner became her foster parents. Moving in with the Warners became the single most important pivot in Skye's life; a catalyst of stability and growth.
Off the clock, she mentors local students, plays in her band, codes, curates the “Twin Prairies Film Nights,” and insists that design is a form of empathy (even if it involves three VCRs and a vision mixer). Her sunglasses rarely come off, and her notes are always right.

Fun fact: Once made a 30-second bumper so good that the client licensed it as a logo.
