Writer and Filmmaker
Hello. How are you? (Click Email to let me know).
I’m a writer and filmmaker based in Vancouver, BC. On my filmmaker side I make narrative films and music videos. On my writing side I’ve published short stories, essays, and book reviews. I’ve also written novels, feature screenplays, and film theory that are just sitting on my computer as of now but I’d like to publish them too one day. That would be so cool. I love writing.
I’m currently researching and developing a feature film with the support of the Canada Council for the Arts.
You can read essays I’m writing as part of my research here.
I graduated from the University of British Columbia in 2018 with a BFA in Film Production and a Minor in Literature. Since then, I’ve been in VIFF’s Catalyst Program and had my work shown in festivals across the country and my writing published in magazines distributed all over North America. I’m now pursuing my MA in Cinema Studies at UBC.
This is really fun for me and I like doing it. I’m going to keep doing it. Thanks for reading. (Click Email to say you’re welcome).
Watch the Video
Kylie V is a singer-songwriter who makes incredible heartfelt music that can be as enormous or personal as anything out there. Solace is one of my favourite songs of theirs. Incredibly catchy, gorgeous instrumentals, that move into that amazing choral section at the end. It’s everything they do best. My original idea for this video would have had closeups of guitars and drums fading in over Kylie’s face as well but on set I realized how captiviting it is just to look at someone’s face. I love that idea for music videos, just the artist’s face, a netural background, 1 or 2 visual ideas and the song. I think you can really get to know Kylie and their work with this video.
