Renier Ridgeway

I am a Cape Town-based producer, part executive, part creative, and all precision.

I am the guy who can negotiate a film crew through a South Sudanese jungle, then pivot to punch up a children's limerick about a bongo antelope. I screenplay deep dives with digital strategy sessions, and I am just as comfortable dissecting a documentary narrative as I am facilitating a multi-camera motion and stills photography advertising campaign. 

A 25+ year veteran of commercial production, I have built a reputation for excellence with Silver Lining Pictures, making Cape Town and Southern Africa a magnet for repeat clients on  international shoots. But I am not not stuck in the past - I embrace Al, challenge norms, and pursue truth, even when it's controversial.

I provide production services as well as produce direct for international advertising agencies and on long-format co-productions.
