​On March 22, 2025, the Esquire Theatre in Cincinnati hosted the premiere of “Sweet Meats,” a locally produced film that has garnered significant attention. The event was a notable success, with reports indicating that tickets were nearly sold out. ​

A standout contributor to the film is OHHS Art and Design student Lizzie Schreibeis! Schreibeis took on multiple roles in the production, serving as the department lead for hair and makeup, as well as portraying the mascot. Her diverse talents are further highlighted by her work as a set designer and makeup artist at USS Nightmare, a popular attraction in Cincinnati, as well as an assistant makeup artist on the film “All Your Friends are Dead”. ​

The film’s premiere was part of the “Hands Across Tromerica” event, celebrating independent cinema. Local media, including Fox 19 Cincinnati, featured segments on “Sweet Meats,” underscoring the community’s support for homegrown talent. ​

Schreibeis’ contributions to “Sweet Meats” not only exemplify the dedication and passion of young artists in Cincinnati’s burgeoning film scene, but her own commitment to using the arts to build a career. This year alone, Lizzie has earned numerous Gold and Silver Key Awards for her work submitted to the Scholastic Art and Writing Competitions, was an Overture Awards Semi-Finalist, has artwork currently on exhibition at the Contemporary Arts Center and Studio San Giuseppe, and was selected to exhibit at this year’s Ohio Governor’s Youth Art Exhibition as a top 25 award winner and will have work in Cameo Exhibition at the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce.
