I am a filmmaker and writer specializing in dramatic films following female protagonists and female relationships with themes of grief and death. I believe these are important themes that deserve to be explored more.
Riley Rheyan attended the award winning Vancouver Film School in 2011 after graduating high-school with an arts bursary. After Film School she began working in the film and television industry and working on indie projects exploring writing and directing.
In 2015 Riley was accepted into the Fulfilling Young Artist Mentorship Program with Kyra Zagorsky (Continuum, 2015) as her Mentor. Shortly thereafter she worked on the award winning Crazy8's film "No Reservations" as a Production Manager.
Riley continues to work on Union projects as a producer or director assistant, taking every opportunity to learn on the job and has worked with some amazing industry mentors including Nick Copus (Siren TV Show, Director), Bill Johnson (I love You Man, Producer) and Cinco Paul (Despicable Me, Writer).
