Alexis Niki

Today I just joined the stateside production team of My Bitchy Witchy Paris Vacation as Consulting Producer.

Writer/producer Alexis Niki contacted me a few days ago and we discussed the mutual benefits of joining forces. Most importantly, I am a fan of good solidly written stories and Alexis is a hard-working professional. Luckily we came into contact through a mutual colleague and the rest, as they say is history. I’m honored to be a part of such a talented International production.

My Bitchy Witchy Paris Vacation was created and written by Alexis Niki and is directed by Kartik Singh. Alexis is an American screenwriter and script consultant living in Paris, France. With more than a decade of freelance translator and subtitler work for customers such as Columbia Tristar, Warner Brothers, German national and private television, Alexis deeply understands storytelling on both sides of the Atlantic. She specializes in character-driven entertainment with a smart edge.

Imagine if Jack Bauer  of “24″ was a hot woman with a gun. And imagine a mashup of “The Usual Suspects” and “The Professional” — then imagine the best parts of “Basic Instinct,” “Burn Notice” and “In Plain Sight” — yeah, it’s like THAT.
