Henry Lipatov:
We came across Sigal Erez’s work and were immediately struck by her rare multi-genre versatility — from commercial, contemporary storytelling to mythological and folkloric narratives with emotional depth.
When developing our latest folklore feature, a layered story rich with fantastic elements, we felt Sigal would be the perfect writer to bring it to life. She did not disappoint. From our very first meeting, she demonstrated an extraordinary flow of ideas and a deep instinct for character and structure — even before fully
immersing herself in the material.
Within weeks, she delivered the first 50 pages, exceeding expectations in both scope and emotional resonance. Sigal is a bold and distinctive female voice whose writing is not only seen on the page — it is felt.
Keren Perlmutter:
I met Sigal Erez in 2022, and from our very first conversations, I was immediately struck by her skilled and passionate storytelling. She has a rare ability to bring ideas to life through both her spoken and written words. Whether in casual conversation or more thoughtful, intentional communication, Sigal’s talent for conveying meaning with clarity, depth, and creativity consistently stood out to me.
As a storyteller, Sigal brings a unique blend of imagination and heart to her work. Her narratives often incorporate spiritual themes and biblical stories in ways that feel fresh, thoughtful, and deeply moving. It is clear she approaches her craft not only with great skill, but also with a strong sense of purpose and integrity.
Beyond her creative talents, Sigal is someone I’ve come to know as honest, hardworking, and deeply committed to her values. She approaches her work and relationships with sincerity and thoughtfulness. I have seen her dedicate countless hours working on and refining her ideas because she truly cares about the stories she tells and the messages they carry.
I am proud to know Sigal, and I offer this letter as a sincere reflection of her character, talent, and integrity.
Tom Lazarus:
I hope you're doing well and continuing productive...which always impresses me.
My apologies for taking so long to read ANSAR. This has unexpectedly been an incredibly busy time for me.
I read your piece...and really liked it. A lot. The design of the series is really smart giving the reader/viewer just enough new information to keep us plugged in. All really good. Being who I am, I, of course, have a few minor complaints but it's surely ready to be developed further. I hope you're getting good reactions to this.
You should be.
If you want to talk further, I'm open to it.
Thanks for letting me read it.
Elizabeth Much:
Sigal Erez is a master storyteller. Her fertile imagination and international background (she is from Israel and her family is from Morocco) provide a wonderful foundation for her scripts. Her characters are always interesting and well-developed, and her understanding of the human condition emanates from
everything that she writes.
Hope Arthur from Lee Strasburg, New York:
Sigal is a multi-talented, very creative and unique individual, and an excellent writer and actress. Effortlessly she can play vast types of characters, do many international accents, and is very interesting to look at. Particularly, she was excellent at improv and comedy. In all of the years of my teaching, I rarely come
across someone like Sigal.”
Kevin Stevenson On Serial Beauty:
Hey - I just finished the enthralling script. A very quick and fun read. I absolutely love the writing, so witty and it has a great feel for the medium.
I love Doris, she is funny and tells it like it is. I enjoyed Garrett's and Lana's relationship, even tho it felt predictable. I like the foreshadowing, particularly when Lana's horse kills a snake in the beginning. The jargon is technically sound and each character has a unique voice. Especially love all the jabs at Los Angeles.
And there are a lot of dry humor. "Never autopsied a phone before.”, “only women can multitask" etc. The crime scenes were so well done. The mannequin, Nefertiti, and the lily pond murders were all so cinematic and suspenseful. My favorite line is "Thank God for time. It prevents everything in the universe from happening all
at once. In the end, I thought Lilith would relive the moment from King Solomon and somehow slit the baby Kimmy in two halves.
Question, how do you see Lilith portrayed in the end? I know she is a blurry shadow throughout the film, but at the end she has long tentacle-like hair. Kind of reminds me of the enchantress from Suicide Squad.
And this is a project I would love to be a part of. Count me in!
Pamela Jay Smit On What's Your Number:
Hello Sigal, I just watched your very moving short film, What’s Your Number.
It was both chilling and heart-warming, capturing so much of history and humanity and hope. I like how it struck on so many sensory levels, particularly in the room with Carla and the Nazi officers: the sound of guns and dogs outside, the liquor up to her lips, smelling her slip, the brush across her forehead. All added to the
palpable sense of danger and the horrifying absurdity of evil. The old man’s words ring so true today: “Know the facts. Follow the history.” And I liked the thought- provoking narration at the end about being on a list and knowing your own number. Mostly though, ending with Compassion as the message. I had to go away
from the computer and sit in silence for a while afterwards to absorb and re- balance. It certainly has given me more determination to be increasingly more aware and to encourage both myself and others to stand up for compassion and our interconnectedness. Very well done!
All the best to you, Sigal, with admiration.
