About Us
“It’s simple.
Television is about people.
The people who watch it.
The people who make it.”
Since 1993 Suddenly SeeMore…Productions has been putting the right people together to produce programs that engage, touch and entertain. Programs that people want to watch.
Suddenly SeeMore’s specialty is reality adventure television and the people who make it. Each team member has a depth of expertise that can only come from years of travelling and organizing shoots around the world. Shooting in over 45 countries, Suddenly SeeMore has produced over 12 television series and more than a dozen one-hour documentaries. We have a passion for producing heartfelt, story-driven programs that capture the essence of people, places and situations.
We have brought viewers face-to-face with survivors of land mine destruction in Cambodia and the survivors of a 12-day expedition race in the outback of Australia. We have borne witness to the horrors of the illegal animal trade in the Philippines and the natural splendor of Argentina. Suddenly SeeMore has taken viewers on adventures as diverse as white-water rafting in Nepal, paragliding in Chile, mountain biking through the Canadian wilderness and racing through the desert of Morocco.
We know the business of adventure. Whether it’s arranging reindeer racing in Norway for a world champion female wrestler or following a team of adventurers through a desert or tropical rain forest, Suddenly SeeMore knows how to balance everything from egos to equipment rentals. After years of practice, the team can anticipate challenges and respond quickly making sure every production runs seamlessly. We know that the greatest shot in the world doesn’t exist without a charged battery. Creativity is nothing without the detail. We know how to manage large projects in the most extreme locations and circumstances while adhering to strict budget guidelines and maintaining the integrity of every story.
The strengths that have made Suddenly SeeMore a leader in the travel adventure genre have translated to success in large-scale reality programming, documentary, sports and variety programming. We are at the forefront of the industry in the areas of creative development, financing and production. The responsiveness and flexibility required on the road have created a cohesive team that knows how to get the job done. The result is award-winning programs. Our latest accolades include two Gemini awards for Season of Song – The Canadian Tenors & Friends.
Behind Suddenly SeeMore’s success is founder Morgan Elliott, a seasoned, award winning Executive Producer. Morgan started in the trenches and worked her way up. From delivering craft services on The Littlest Hobo to wheeling and dealing in executive boardrooms decades later, Morgan has done it all. That deep understanding of production has allowed her to recognize talent and build teams that produce award winning programs. As an Emmy-nominated producer she is an expert at building the right team for the job.
Gaining experience while working with trailblazing reality icons like Mark Burnett and Phil Keoghan, Morgan and her team have produced award winning programs for many major networks including CBC, NBC, The Discovery Channel, Animal Planet, History Television, The Outdoor Life Network and The Sports Network. Many of these original programs like Beyond Borders and Stratusphere have been purchased and are airing worldwide. We are also in the business of creating formats that have been optioned internationally. Mark Burnett’s distribution company represents these formats.
It’s simple.
Suddenly SeeMore has the people who make the programs that people want to watch.
