Chimpanzee Productions' logo was inspired by Thomas Allen Harris' visit to the Nazca lines - a series of enigmatic geoglyphs in Peru. For Thomas, one of the earth carvings, a monkey made by indigenous shamans for celestial eyes, came to symbolize the company's quest to illuminate the Human Condition using audio-visual media to uncover ancient truths.

Chimpanzee Productions, Inc., founded in 1992 by Thomas Allen Harris, is dedicated to producing unique visual experiences that embody the search for identity, family, and spirituality. Chimpanzee Productions utilizes a wide range of media, including video, still photography, installations, performance and film, to draw audiences into an internal and external dialogue that transcends the artificial barriers which separate people from each other and themselves. Our films seek to create a sense of community and self-integration that exults in shared experience and wisdom, to find a deeper truth in the joy of being "human".

Some of our recent award-winning films include E Minha Cara/That's My Face funded by the Ford Foundation and broadcast on Sundance Channel, ARTE, YLE, Alliance Atlantis in 2005 and Twelve Disciples of Nelson Mandela a US-South African co-production commissioned by ITVS and NBPC and broadcast on PBS and STV Sweden 2006. Chimpanzee Productions is currently in development on several new projects including the production of Through A Lens Darkly: Black Photographers and the Emergence of a People.
