A special relationship
The next few days mark the entry of “Waiting for You” into the North American film festival circuit (it was part of the Cannes shorts corner just recently). It’s an unusual film for a number of reasons. One thing I’ve been thinking about recently is its central relationship: father and daughter. Especially with Father’s Day…

Dinner, anyone?
Yesterday was the screening of “Midnight Dinner,” a dark stylish solo piece that observes a woman of extreme lonliness and dubious courage. I had such a blast filming it. Here are some photos from the experience!

Self-taping has become a mainstay for actors these days (and lots of folks on the web, yes?). With very little experience doing it, I was ready to jump in and learn. So, early this morning…

Breakfast is coming…
I had so much fun recently acting in a parody of the glorious series Game of Thrones, delectably entitled Game of Scones. This short film has an extraordinary (and massive!) cast and crew, passionately led by director Louis Allen and producers Yvonne Sayers and Lora Bofill. I play Caitlin Snark (of the famed Stark family on GOT proper). Fun times! …

Be Still
Below are photos from the sumptuous and fantastical short “Olivia” directed by Ana Garcia Abad. Alas, my role ended up on the proverbial cutting room floor, but here are some stills photographed by Ivan Urarte.
