Director Biography - Elise Crawford

Elise Crawford is an undergraduate college student studying film production and studio art. From a young age, she was captivated by the magic of moviemaking, eating up behind-the-scenes facts and clips. Her love of editing started in middle school when she, her sisters, and a few friends tried to recreate their favorite comedy skits. Elise is inspired by the power of brilliant, emotional, and thought-provoking stories, but she also enjoys things that are just fun to watch. Her favorite film media of all time is the BCC show Sherlock, closely followed by Christopher Nolan's Inception.
