About us

DEMS Entertainment, founded by Emily De Margheriti, is a visionary film & TV production company that champions original genre projects with strong female led roles and stories that resonate with global audiences.

We are driven by our passion for storytelling and seek out unique material that aligns with our distinct vision of working only on projects that resonate with global audiences, utilise extensive virtual production and visual effects methods similar to those used in Netflix’s 1899, Those About to Die (Peacock), Disney’s Mandalorian or Gareth Edward’s The Creator. All our projects will be produced at AIE Studios, in partnership with the Academy of Interactive Entertainment (AIE).

At DEMS, we produce, and finance our own genre films and TV series. We are not a film financing company or a traditional film investor. We invest only in our own projects, or arrange for financing for our co-productions.

Our commitment to supporting emerging talent and creating film industry jobs in Canberra and the region is equally important. That's why we provide limited attachment and job opportunities to the film and VFX graduates of the non-profit AIE, as well as other educators in the Canberra region, as a cornerstone of our mission.
