I was highly honoured and grateful to direct another piece for @theglaurydays - my first with @cfccreates and the team behind the magic, headed by @lee.marsh.all were excellent.
This movie stars the extraordinary @hannah.forestbriand who pulled off a Godzilla sized role, with the incomparable help of her body double / acting partner @brionymerritt
This technically challenging movie was shot beautifully by @cameracervantes - a creative reunion I've been wanting for a while.
Hosted by @piestudios - it was my first time working with a cyc wall and I loved it!
Edited by the amazing @sarabullochwpg (who I recently worked with again, we picture locked our second project yesterday)
You can watch the movie on the CFC YouTube Channel

Catch this beautiful movie on @thecw & @ctv TOMORROW then streaming on @cravecanada
This was a joy to direct. It became a love letter to my younger self, who clung on to ANYTHING sapphic.
First, the script written by @lisarosesnow gave me all the feels.
Then I was paired with some amazing humans who believed in my vision and worked to help realize it: @mitchgeddes@vinuja.x@vanessaprilewelfle@admbrk@instamcq@jordana_aarons@florian_productiondesigner@slakeyelizabeth@kristina.small7 (to name a few)
Then we got our incredible leads @kathryngallagher
& @katharinekingso filled out by our amazing cast.
Above and beyond all of that, while directing this, I was creating a tiny human and everyone embraced my pregnancy. They even threw me a surprise baby shower!!
From start to finish, this movie was my favourite project to date. I'm filled with warmth not only with what we all pulled together and managed to create, but 'how' we did it. The vibe on set was so positive and amazing.

Recent directing work.
What an amazing group of collaborators I've had the honour to work with. Thank you to the talented cast & crews!!
I ran out of tags available.
It's been so lovely to have been somewhat 'adopted' by this beautiful @cfccreates cohort.
I loved getting to direct two showcase pieces in the last few months.

ONE DAY TO GO!
A fashion movie requires a talented costume designer and we were so lucky to have had @slakeyelizabeth on 'Ordinary Girl in a Tiara'. Even before I was hired, I was talking about how important the different worlds of our leads need to be and how to bring that out through texture & colour.
I knew from our first meeting, that Sarah and I were going to be on the same page. We connected over our love of queer cinema and @nlyonne (who starred in one of our all time favourite queer movies 'But I'm a Cheerleader').
Sarah took things to a whole new level. I'd leave our meetings with a renewed sense of understanding, knowledge, and respect for lesbian fashion throughout the ages. Thank you to Sarah for bringing her passion and talent to our movie.
