A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Birthplace:
Wisconsin, USA
Sheila Ellis was raised in Wisconsin. Her first print job was in May 2002 where she was featured as a model in the Milwaukee City LifeStyle Magazine. In 2003 she moved to CA and that is when she immersed herself in the entertainment industry. One pivotal moment in her career was when she garnered the principal role in the crime re-enactment television show Extreme Forensics. Since that time, Sheila has been featured and garnered credits that range from commercials, television, film, industrials and voiceover in the San Francisco and Los Angeles markets. In 2013, she was the executive producer of The Tailypo. In 2015, she garnered the role of Commander Lisa Hunt in a short called Who is Daniel Warren? The film explores the problem of police brutality and Commander Hunt is trying to restore order in her agency and well as trying to restore police/community relations. Sheila would encourage anyone that has a goal in mind to dream, pursue and attain!
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
