about us

All companies, no matter their type or product, are in the media business today. Whether you’re a studio in need of a trailer or major presentation, or a non-profit that wants to relaunch its website, your brand has a challenge – setting itself apart from the thousands of messages consumers hear, read, and see everyday.

At GrapeVine, our team knows how to cut through the clutter. We partner with clients at all levels to ensure that each project is a stand-out success, and that it does what you need it to do – build on your image, extend brand awareness, and most importantly, reach your audience. We have years of experience brand-building for major television and film studios, corporate clients, and non-profits.

From Commercials & Promos, Behind–the–Scenes & DVD Bonus Features, to Production, Design & Animation for television, web, and beyond, thanks for coming to GrapeVine Productions. You’ve found the right place.

executive producers

Erin Carenzo  A former Writer/Producer for the ABC Cable Networks Group, and an Associated Press award-winning journalist, Erin has also worked as an Entertainment Marketing Manager for Ogden Entertainment, a Public Relations Specialist, a Radio Broadcaster, and Television News Producer. In addition to Writing, Producing and Directing, Erin continues to work as a Social Media Consultant for both the private and non-profit sectors. Her “other” favorite job when not on-set or in the field, is that of “mom” to her three young sons.
Tony Carenzo  Growing up on the sets of early Spielberg and Zemeckis films, Tony couldn’t help but develop a love of storytelling. He graduated with honors from the USC School of Cinema-Television in 1995, and since then, he has traveled extensively throughout the world, making films and riding motorcycles. His ongoing pursuit of life experience has led him to service in the U.S. Marine Corps during Operation Desert Storm, the world of aviation and his latest projects – his three sons.

lead designers

Tony and Erin believe that working with the industry’s top artists, designers, writers and editors, is the only way to do business. So at GrapeVine Productions, you’ll only get the best of the best of the best when it comes to your project’s creative team.

Kevan Barnett  Kevan grew up in Toronto. We only mention that because we like to give him a hard time about the way he says words like, “about.” Kevan started with GrapeVine as an intern prior to graduating from the Art Institute in 2007 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Animation. Kevan is truly the rock star of rock stars. He is the FedEx of the design world – “when it absolutely, positively has to get there.” He will work day and night to make sure your project is done beautifully, on time and accurately. He is creative, amazing to work with, and his designs are featured on networks ’round the clock. How’s that for making it in L.A., eh?
Stacie Roberts  Stacie has been an integral member of the GrapeVine team for over 8 years. During that time, her incredible designs and animations have been featured in too many high-profile projects to count – everything from commercials, promos, and PSAs, marketing and sizzle reels, and various network branding campaigns. Stacie has always credited long hours in front of her monitor and many cups of coffee for her award-winning design work. When she’s not on her computer, she loves drawing, painting and playing with her beautiful little boy, Rusty. A big fan of classic cartoons like Ren & Stimpy, as well as the music of the Beastie Boys and AC/DC, little Rusty is sure to be one cool kid.
