AYMARA INTERACTIVE

Elle León Nostas is a studio builder and award-winning Bolivian American filmmaker. They launched physical production at Engine Studios, built physical and post-production infrastructure as head of production at Day Job, worked in development at Warner Bros., and produced campaigns for global beauty powerhouse Lancôme as Executive Producer at Anthrocene Entertainment.

A director whose own work spans Louis Vuitton and the Academy Award®-qualifying short Savior, they have built their career at the intersection of creative vision and operational execution. In 2024 they founded Aymara Films, a creative-led production and IP studio. In its first year, Elle León championed Alex Ullom's horror feature It Ends, which NEON acquired for worldwide theatrical distribution soon after its 2025 SXSW premiere, proof of an eye for talent and the commercial instinct to back it. The studio now has 20+ projects in development with Emmy-nominated and Oscar-winning collaborators, including an adaptation slate of genre-defining works: Someone Is Always Watching from #1 New York Times bestselling author Kelley Armstrong, Surrender Your Sons from award-winning author Adam Sass, the graphic novel Killing Hope from Bliss on Tap Comics, and more.

An IP development and adaptation specialist who has spoken at San Diego Comic-Con and WonderCon on building scalable story worlds, they bring that same infrastructure-first instinct to Aymara Interactive, where the development groundwork was laid before the raise.

Andrew Penczner is the Head of Development at Aymara Films and incoming Chief Creative Officer of Aymara Interactive. He holds an MFA from USC's School of Cinematic Arts with a dual focus on screenwriting and game design, the precise intersection of Aymara Interactive's creative mandate.

He began his career engineering narrative persuasion for political campaigns in the US and abroad, moving audiences at scale before bringing that instinct to storytelling as a commercial director and producer with clients including Red Bull and Intel.

At Aymara Films, he works closely with founder Elle León to break stories, champion IP from concept to package, and serve as the primary liaison across Aymara's network of producers, studios, and rights holders.

Two decades across the spectrum of gaming: production, publishing, business development, studio operations, and strategic partnerships at EA, Riot Games, and Genvid Technologies. Hands-on credits include some of the largest franchises in the industry (Battlefield, Mass Effect, Star Wars, and League of Legends), covering the full arc of getting a game funded, made, shipped with publishing partners, and running the studios behind it all.

Most recently, GM of Genvid US, the regional arm of Genvid Technologies, creator of the first MILE (Massively Interactive Live Entertainment) platform. There, he helped bring the original Rival Peak to market, the breakout interactive series Genvid produced with Pipeworks and DJ2 Entertainment, now Story Kitchen.
