Sj
The truth about independent filmmaking is rarely glamorous. When everything goes according to plan, it’s magic. But when it doesn’t? Chaos ensues. Emotions bleed into professionalism, lines blur, and things get messy. Who’s the real talent? Where’s the funding? Can you hold it together when every variable threatens to unravel? Everyone tells you to stay professional—but that’s easier said than done. Sj is a raw, unfiltered journey into the unpredictable world of independent film production. This is the becoming of Sj.

Texas raised actress and model carving her path to becoming a filmmaker.
Creating Sj was a decision made out of necessity. For years I have been trying to bring to life a specific project. There are so many hurdles, ups and downs and disappointments for many involved in this industry. With little to no budget this short film was formed. This is a behind the scenes story into my experiences as a first time filmmaker in front of the camera as well as behind the lens.
