Director Statement

The entertainment industry typically tells actresses and creative females alike to hide in a drawer until the baby comes. It's 2021 and this is still a thing...come on. In "Oh, Baby!" we’re putting Jane front and center. And what if she isn’t portrayed as most pregnant women: baby fever, holding hands with her husband, opening diaper cakes? What if she is unapologetically, albeit awkwardly, looking to fulfill the deepest of human needs - one most often explored from the male perspective - before her journey into single motherhood begins?

"Oh, Baby!" is the result.

It was an absolute joy writing this piece with Kate, and it was my duty and honor to make her shine through this story (while almost eight months pregnant. For realz, for realz. In real life. Kate Morgan Chadwick is superwoman, I'm convinced). What a fun ride we go on with her, seeking this last night of hot passion before motherhood fully kicks in. With a terrific cast and crew we made it possible to shine a completely different light on a pregnant woman, exploring her personal desires and sexuality. And damn was it fun.

We hope you have a few solid chuckles watching our film. And we hope stories like this continue to portray pregnant women in all of their glory.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,
Brooke Trantor
Director of "Oh, Baby!"
