Coleen LeDrew Elgin is a documentary-style filmmaker and the founder of Elgin Productions. Since 2004 she has directed and produced commissioned films for foundations, nonprofits, and organizations whose work centers on consciousness, spiritual awakening, healing, and transformation. Her clients choose her not only for her filmmaking craft but for her deep familiarity with the territory — the spiritual path has been both her personal and professional life for over 30 years.
Her work includes Science and Sacraments: Psychedelics Research and Mystical Experiences (2012) and The Way of the Shaman: The Work of Michael and Sandra Harner (2017), both commissioned by the Betsy Gordon Foundation, and Choosing Earth: Choosing Life (2022) for the Choosing Earth Project, which she co-directs with Duane Elgin. For over six years she was commissioned by the John E. Fetzer Memorial Trust to produce and direct numerous films documenting the work and vision of the Fetzer Institute.
A trained spiritual director and mentor, Coleen brings presence, sensitivity, and care to every project and to every person she films. She began her formal meditation practice in 1992 and continues a daily practice in Tibetan Buddhism and non-dual spirituality.
