PATRICK RIVERA

A visionary from the start, Patrick Rivera, CEO of Trick Entertainment, has spent the last 30 years hand-crafting his extensive knowledge of film and music as a producer, cinematographer, editor, musician, and entrepreneur. He possesses a unique ability to fluidly navigate the sphere of entertainment from a dual perspective, where he easily recognizes, harnesses, and transcends raw creativity into a fully-formed, tangible asset, while simultaneously ensuring all managerial, production and regulatory elements flow seamlessly. At Trick Entertainment, a wholly independent production company, Patrick has created a talent-rich network of creatives, executives, and organizations, which work in tandem to develop, finance, produce and distribute top tier media in various forms such as commercials, promotional pieces, theatrical releases, and short films. Additionally, after producing several successful films, Patrick partnered with another seasoned producer, Richard Siegelman, and created Trick 6 Films, which is an independent studio and distribution company focused on creating/acquiring film and television content with a worldwide reach.
