Our story.

Hidden Aces Entertainment inhabits the space where talent shines and untold stories emerge from the shadows. We actively seek out hidden aces across the industry, whether they're undiscovered narratives, emerging talents, or innovative approaches to filmmaking.

We understand that movie magic happens when brilliant performances meet masterful craftsmanship, recognising that game-changing talent exists not just in front of the camera but in every role that brings a production to life.

Hidden Aces Entertainment is a production company founded by producer Kara Pisconeri, built on the belief that in every person lies a story waiting to be told, and in every story, a hidden ace - that perfect moment, breakthrough performance, or unexpected twist that changes everything. The company actively seeks out hidden aces across the industry, whether they're undiscovered narratives, emerging talents, or innovative approaches to filmmaking, creating timeless, beloved films and series that audiences connect with for years to come.

Founded by producer Kara Pisconeri, the company emerges from deep reflection on where the future of storytelling is heading. Kara brings more than a decade of experience producing feature films, production management across tourism, news media and broadcast projects, and running successful PR and marketing campaigns.

Kara has worked across key roles both above and below the line, always ensuring the creative and commercial aspect of production work seamlessly together. She has produced romantic comedy IT ONLY TAKES A NIGHT (2023, Feature), which Kara produced through A Touch of Madness Studios, the company she co-founded before focusing on Hidden Aces' storytelling mission. Additional credits include line producer on END TO END (2025), field producer on ESCAPE TO (Channel 7, 2023) and MASTERCHEF (Channel 10, 2019), and producer on short films THE LAST TRIP (2024, CinefestOz Official Selection) and RUNNER (2021, WA Made Film Festival Short).

Kara was recently awarded industry recognition by the Screen Producers Association of Australia, when she was named as a 2024 Ones To Watch.

Hidden Aces Entertainment is supported by development producer Tiarna McGillivray, bringing collaborative expertise to the company's development slate.
