Iesha Price

My name is Iesha Price and I'm an award winning indie producer/art director in Atlanta, GA. I have a BFA in Media Production and I'm the creator of Merry Price Productions LLC. My company stands for freedom of choice, creativity, and diversity. As a producer, I want to change the way we treat & view each other in the film industry. My journey to working in film has definitely not been an easy road. After serving time in the Army; I returned to the civilian world, worked at a homeowner’s association for 8 years and wanted a more fulfilling career. I quit my job and went back to school in 2014- juggling a career change & raising 3 kids. After my first film class I fell in love with the process of filmmaking. I worked on a ton of unpaid indie projects before I ever landed my first paid gig. My film and television career began in office and art assistant work for ESPN & BET live events, features such as Summer Night & St. Agatha on Netflix, television series such as Ozark, Prank Encounters & Lovecraft Country. I’ve also done work as a production secretary for Dear Evan Hansen, The Tomorrow War & Cobra Kai. My first producing debut was Residence 906; a drama/thriller crewed up by 50 incredibly talented women and 4 men (all volunteers- in support of the growing awareness of the #metoo movement). It screened at the Plaza Theatre for the 50 Foot Film Festival on Halloween Eve in 2018. We won 7 awards for this project directed by Heather Hutton. I'm ready to take my producing career to the next level and believe the Amber Grant can definitely help my company do so. I've joined forces with the director/producer of Residence 906 and her partner at their company Imperial Savage; created by Taylor Owenby. Our current venture include 4 projects showcased at the Cannes Film Festival and the American Film Market.
