⚡️ Just wrapped an incredible three-day shoot for an AFI cycle film, and I’m equal parts exhausted and creatively fulfilled. This was my third AFI project, but by far the most ambitious—crew flew in from the East Coast, my co-star from New Mexico, and the level of talent and dedication on set was unreal.
The film follows a young woman torn between love and ambition as a chance encounter with an ex-lover forces her to confront the flaws that led to their breakup. This was the most challenging, layered role I’ve taken on yet, and as any artist knows, opportunities like this don’t come around often.
Endless gratitude to the entire crew, and a special shoutout to our Director
@tim.almo for his dedication—meeting with me tirelessly, answering countless questions, giving me the creative freedom to challenge and refine Celine’s journey, and spending extra time rehearsing and blocking every scene and knowing how to give thoughtful adjustments take after take.
‘Celine’ would not come to life without our phenomenal costume designer
@christophermetz and makeup artist
@makeupbyjazmine7 . Their vision and attention to detail transformed her into the character you’ll see on screen—
@bodhirader couldn’t have asked for a better ‘George’, you brought it!!
I’m looking forward to some self-care at my favorite spa tmrw!
