World Premiere
Born in Hawaii, raised in Las Vegas, Lex is an actor and filmmaker currently finishing her last year in UNLV's film program.
Aside from producing and starring in a range of local short films, she was recently cast in a featured role in the upcoming independent feature, Death to False Hipsters (2016).
Drool was my directorial debut, conceived and completed over the course of six weeks as part of the Las Vegas Film Festival's Young Cinema Lab. I worked with Stella and Edie (ages 8 & 9) to help them craft a script in over the course of three screenwriting workshops. They were also kind enough to lend their adorable voices for the narration!
Drool is also an international collaboration - I worked with Remus & Kiki, the incredibly talented animators from the UK (whom I've never met in real life), over the Internet to bring Sam and Lulu to life!
Being re-exposed to the no-limitations attitude towards creativity that the girls both had was a truly eye-opening experience for me. Drool was a joy to create every step of the way.
