We’ve officially done with our short film, ‘Esme’s Life Sucks!’ This romantic horror comedy was a true labor of love, and we are beyond grateful to every single person who poured their time, talent, and energy into bringing it to life. Without you, this film wouldn’t exist.
A special shoutout to the costume, makeup and production design teams, whose dedication and creativity shaped our characters and world so beautifully.
@maries_noonecollection @jpcreaturefx_ @chellyoungstudio as well as the AD department and coordinators, who worked incredibly hard to keep everything running smoothly

A huge thank you to the post-production team—your patience and skill, especially in perfecting those final VFX shots, made all the difference.

We also want to express our deepest appreciation to Clint and his team whose breathtaking cinematography defined the film’s visual identity.

Of course, none of this would be possible without our fantastic cast. Callie was a hilarious yet heartfelt Esme, Pearl brought wisdom and grounding to the story, and Herman was wonderfully sweet and innocent as Colin. And to all the extras who spent a full day on set with us—we know it was hard work, and we appreciate every single one of you!

And, of course, a massive thank you to Persephone for crafting this funny, twisted, and wonderfully chaotic world!

To every single person who contributed—thank you, thank you, thank you!
Next stop: the festival circuit! Fingers crossed we get into some amazing festivals. 🧛🏻♀️❤️🔥 -
