Mission Statement

Hanalei Entertainment is a collection of free-thinking individuals who dedicate themselves to crafting dynamic, engaging content in the visual medium. We’re here to break ground and blaze trails, and we want to turn heads while doing it. To put it simply, we’re here to make great stuff. Otherwise, what’s the point?

Beautiful and memorable imagery.

Thoughtful, provocative scene work.

Dramatic and comedic storytelling.

Are you ready to be a part of an outfit whose main mission is to set itself apart from the rest of the mind-numbing noise? We want to work with people who have something to say, with people who know how to make film happen.

We’re here to put together a team to make new movies and create amazing, award-winning feature films that captivate even the most discerning audiences.

Dennis Pressaggio is the driving force behind Hanalei Entertainment: an experienced producer, director, writer, and editor in both narrative and documentary filmmaking. He’s kept a certain quality throughout his work that seamlessly weaves talent and concept, crafting projects with a conscience and telling stories with serious engines.

Having success with his first company, Hanalei Entertainment & Video, Dennis has now dedicated himself to creating prestige personal projects, looking to collaborate with like-minded folk who are more about making great work than primarily making vaults full of money. Let’s be great at making both!
