Welcome To Pioneer Entertainment

Ready To See Our Work?

The Clubhouse

The Clubhouse, written by Craig Selbrede (ACC Pub Ink), and directed by Brock Mason Crone (Pioneer Entertainment), is an uplifting high-school comedy television pilot set to be pitched to Disney in late 2027.

​

The story follows Rose McKent (Julia Merrion), a secret genius who struggles to maintain her cover while her friends embark on a scheme to save their school.

​

Following a successful Kickstarter campaign and project financing from Pioneer Entertainment, The Clubhouse began production in March 2026 with an estimated wrap following in October 2026.

​​

The Clubhouse is Pioneer's current flagship project, and serves as a masterclass for aspiring filmmakers looking to up their production quality, learn about executive

decision-making in the film industry, and ultimately gain insight into creating revenue-generating IPs and studio pitches, all while creating a fulfilling creative project.​​​​​

Lombardi

Written, Produced, and Directed by Brock Mason Crone (Pioneer Entertainment), Lombardi is one of Pioneer's earliest works. Directly after exiting college, Brock began production on Lombardi's pilot episode with an initial budget of $10,000.

​

Introducing one Newman Lombardi (Jonathan Burgart),  a washed-up photo journalist (paparazzo), who grows ever unsatisfied with his profession of ruining careers and public imagery. While working his "final" job for the agency, Newman is dragged into an underworld of criminal conspiracy and deceit when local mob boss Vito Pascal (Brady Harlow) blackmails Newman for his own selfish purposes. In all, the story outlines the figure of a man who is removed from who he once was, and will stop at nothing to realize his newfound positions of power.

​

Lombardi, being Pioneer Entertainment's first creative project, sets the ground work for how we navigate financing, budget management, and project deadlines.

PipeDreem

From visionary Director and Screenwriter Carlito Hale

(Hale-Larious Films), PipeDreem tells the story of a

small-town girl, Charisma Dreem (Julia Merrion), in her pursuit of living out her Broadway fantasies. Meanwhile, John Marshall, a world-renowned theatre director works through legal disputes, alcoholism, and the discovery of a star for his latest musical.

​​​

For Pioneer Entertainment, PipeDreem was our first hands-off project, and was what eventually led us to stepping into the Talent Management and Financing side of entertainment. Being able to recognize talent, invest in them, and give them the necessary tools to watch their dreams come true is a feeling that never gets old.

​

At the end of the day, PipeDreem not only taught us about project marketing campaigns and successful distribution, but it serves as a constant reminder of WHY Pioneer does instead of HOW Pioneer does.

​

“It might seem small,” Hale said. “But what I can do with it. It was huge.”

 

A friend got him in touch with Brock Crone of Pioneer Entertainment.

​

“I sat down with him and pitched him this project. I told him the story, the backstory, why I want to do it. All that good stuff,” Hale said. “A few days later, he called me with $1,000.”

Truffle Pig

Truffle Pig, co-created by Randy Rochford (Feelin' Just Dandy Productions) and Brock Mason Crone (Pioneer Entertainment), is a deeply beautiful and bizarre short film with a focus on gritty body-horror and vigilante thriller genres that combines cinematic tension with unapologetic, avant-garde storytelling. It is currently in

pre-production with Rochford attached as the lead.

​

Truffle Pig's screenplay has already won an award from Denver Indie Film Festival for "Best Short Script."

​

Truffle Pig's projected production-start date is in August of 2027.
