AWAKENING WONDER.
We believe in the power of story.
It’s the currency of the human experience and the power to expand consciousness. When we suspend our disbelief and let a story take us on its journey through “a little life,” we find we’ve crossed boundaries and found empathy. We ask audiences to give their imaginations a chance to breathe and emerge from their screens—more connected, aware, and alive.
Led by creatives who have decades of experience building connections with audiences across every medium, Dream Three is a home where talent-on-the-rise is nurtured and inspired to do their best work.

JEREMY MERRIFIELD
FOUNDER
Jeremy Merrifield is a writer, director, and producer who began making films after spending more than a decade working in New York’s Broadway theater community and the advertising industry.
His most recent film, BALLOON, stars Paul Scheer (Black Monday, The League) and Jonah Beres (Hulu’s PEN15) and uses the superhero myth to examine toxic masculinity and how we raise our boys. The film premiered at Palm Springs International Film Festival’s Short Fest and has been seen at New Orleans Film Festival, Hawaii International Film Festival, and HollyShorts Film Festival where it won Grand Prix qualifying for the 2020 Oscars.
​
Jeremy also wrote and directed a spec comedy pilot, FOR REAL, a satirical examination of American narcissism in the age of the social media star. In addition, his first short film, LINE, is based on his childhood growing up in a commercial fishing community and tells the story of a family of fishermen on the frontlines of the climate change crisis.
In the theater, Jeremy produced the concert and subsequent development workshop for Tony Award-winner Jason Robert Brown’s debut musical SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD. In casting, he worked on THE BOY FROM OZ starring Hugh Jackman as well as Cameron Mackintosh’s CATS. As a director, he assisted the New York Theatre Workshop production of Houshang Touzie’s OUR SWEET LIFE BY THE PACIFIC OCEAN starring Shoreh Agdashloo and exploring the life of a Persian family living in America.
